sorry to hear (read) this. hopefully things pick up soon. One advantage you have is all the experience you can offer. i bet that in this market the companies that are hiring are the really strong ones, and so when things pick up you'll be in a place that comes out even stronger after the herd has been thinned of less stable companies.
try to enjoy the time off, even if it's not voluntary. i would be looking every day like that was my job, but make sure you get in some time with your missus and work on some hobbies and personal stuff, project around the house, whatever you have. keep a cycle of achievement going and you'll be ok
i think about what the previous generation and the generation before that lived through, and times were tough for them in a few places as well, but we always emerged from it stronger than before.
