Radical idea: try a long meditation retreat. Some of them are free or by donation (e.g dhamma.org, a little cult-like but I think well-intentioned). It also forces a rigorous routine on you for a short while, which can help a lot with the aimless feeling. The challenge of getting through the full ten days gives you some purpose. It helped a lot with my depression, and some people have found serious benefits with chronic pain. It seems to help people disconnect from the physical pain and not have it affect other aspects of their life as much. If that doesn’t appeal to you, look for other changes that can enforce some routine in your life. Taking in-person classes at a college, joining a yoga class, meeting a friend for coffee every morning, volunteering at a shelter, cooking breakfast for your family every day… something that turns your focus towards others a little can be helpful.
