I disagree. I was unemployed for a few months and I could not get myself to do the things I needed to in order to get the jobs I was interested in. There was so much anxiety associated with this that it triggered avoidance anxiety. What saved me is that studying the things I am naturally drawn to that have a lot of tangential offerings. My advice: find the biggest tree of knowledge that you're interested in and hope that the branches that you can reach will take care of you.
