I am more or less in your same situation, but I've taken the radical decision never to use LLMs for anything at all. The identity as a software engineer has gone and will never return, but my skills have not suffered one second. In fact, I enjoy doing things like we've always done and exercising my brain, becoming wiser and more knowledgeable than I've ever been.
Will this make me unhireable? I'd rather do any other job that have LLMs forced upon me.
Sorry you're feeling like that. There are dozens of us. You say you are self-taught like I am, we have a better-than-average skill in learning, don't waste it trying to dumb yourself down to an idiot savant.
