How to stop doomapplying?

I've been applying for 10 months, in the first few I'd always try to find jobs that matched my exact profile, I would make sure to I hit ~80% of the requirements for the role, I would think for hours about their 'why do you want to work here' questions, googling the company and its history, recorded 2 'introduce yourself' videos (one had 0 views when I got the rejection email), and would sometimes even change the CV to better match what they're asking for. I would go on CV checking websites to make sure I hit all the keywords and that it was a clean CV. I have a bachelors degree and worked with data

Didn't get a single offer

It's been so long and I feel so hopeless that nowadays I just go on linkedin and indeed, search for the main tool I used to use/my last role and fill every single one of them, I don't even read it anymore, if I see my tool/role I apply and dont think too much about what to write if they ask me personal questions.

I woke up friday to 14 rejection emails and didn't feel anything, just went right back to applying. I don't really know how to leave this position I don't even feel anything anymore when I get rejected

has anyone been in this position before? how do you stop?
