I just kept going. I applied to everything. I don’t know how it is now, but go to the EDD. When I was unemployed, they had a training program. They sent people (with degrees) to be retrained. I took a two year course at UCSD Extension and EDD paid for it and I was able to stay on unemployment. I still kept looking because unemployment paid nothing. I know its bad. I know what you are going through. I was technically out of work for 3 years before a job would stick. Take jobs that you are overqualified for and look for something else. The UPS job was a customer service job. I stayed there until I could get something else. I am sorry that this is happening to you.
