JMC here, how deal with the anxiety during these times? (serious answers only pls).
1) Stick to your exercise routine. If you run every morning, keep doing that. If you play basketball twice a week, keep doing that. Etc. And if you're not regularly exercising, now's a good time to start.
2) Focus on what you can control. Practice your job market talk. Work on your papers.
3) Good luck!

1) Don't read EJMR; 2) Prioritize sufficient sleep, diet, exercise; 3) Keep pushing research along; 4) Give it your all and don't worry about outcome; study Taoist parable - "What is good, what is bad"

I agree on sports activities and son on. I know this year it is the most difficult job market ever, might be the turning downhill point for this profession, forever. Tell yourself this is bad luck and that you cannot change it. Its already too late for you. Lucky those on 1st and 2nd year of the program to quit in time.

Try to isolate a bit from other JMCs. Yes, they will be your cohort forever so it is good to form relationships, but at the same time you can get into an anxiety feedback loop. Channel your anxiety productively. Polish your dissertation, your talk, your five minute spiel, your elevator spiel, etc. etc. Go buy some clothes that make you feel like a superstar.
