Lots of great advice in the responses. I'll say also start diversifying your life so you draw meaning and connection outside of work too.

You might want to start small, pick some activity / hobby that meets periodically for some small number of hours and don't ever let yourself be persuaded to skip a turn.

Start there and you might have to rotate until you find your niche - sports, book clubs, non profits - but don't give up on that. A couple of hours in a week to start with should be very doable - unless you are encumbered by a ton of family responsibilities.

Gradually you'll gain perspective and the ability to make bigger leaps. Good luck!
