I remember that you seemed really excited about the flotation therapy gig before you even started. It obviously sucks that it folded and that you got laid off but is it something you’re passionate about where you could pursue it or related field as a career (assuming schooling and/or getting licensed would be involved)?

Is there any specific reason (aside from general social anxiety) why you can’t hit up your former coworker to hang out as friends?

I’m basically just suggesting reframing the situation if possible and trying to focus on the positive aspects of the experience- namely that you enjoyed the job while it lasted and the connection you made with your coworker.

Yes, easy for me to say but I’ve been where you are- constantly worrying about money, not sure whether you can pay your rent. It’s a shitty place to be but it’s not uncommon- I wish I had better advice though. Just try to hang in there and remain open to any opportunities that might be a stepping stone to where you eventually wanna be- even if that means temporarily taking a “retail garbage” gig to stay afloat.
