There are already some excellent responses here.

I get the sense that you are still trying to figure out what role is ideally suited for you, is that correct?

If that's true, here's an out-of-the-box idea.. Why not get a job as a recruiter?

Assuming it pays insurance, it might give you a chance to stabilize your expenses, learn about what tech companies look for, and how they operate. You'll also build a network by helping others get jobs.

In your spare time you can work on a few open-source projects that demonstrate your competence as a developer, if that's what you want.

Good luck!
