I am at a quite similiar situation, where i realize that i mentally will not be able to do my job for a several couple of years from now on. ( Also working as Freelancer ) I guess there is no "fast way out", but in the transitional period to something new(whatever it will be), it is important to find a new point of view on your work. What i mean is, that it often helps to look at the activities you dislike, as they would be more of a tai-chi training. Also: Focus on other aspects of your work, in multiple ways (Your feelings while working /or: aspects you neglected in the past / the product not the code / etc etc..) Work less, slower and more clever. While doing that, slowly find out where you would REALLY like to see yourself in 5 or 10 years. And don't panic.
