I really hope something comes through soon that's at least marginally better than your current place. Staying somewhere well past your personal use-by date is very taxing on the soul and the resentment/disconnect can spill over onto others and exacerbate matters.

I don't know what your industry or financial situation is like, but do you think it might ever get to a point where it's better to just cut ties and stop the rot from setting in any further, even without another job in hand?... I was getting a bit antsy with job hunting after 2.5 months but I don't regret for a second leaving my old job when I did and taking the hit to my savings, being able to hold out for a good position really made all the difference
