I have had similar periods in my life. I found that being responsible for others helped me to stop dwelling on my own problems. You already have that with your grandparents, but I guess it's not helping much. What about friends? Do you socialize much?

I'm far of having all my problems solved, but I did find a lot of relief in improving myself as much as I can in every domain.
Starting hobbies that I like (after accepting that sometimes you can like things that are a bit dumb or werid) also helped both in giving me something interesting and hard to do and making me meet as much people as I could, regardless of our wavelength.
I assume that people always have something to teach me and when that feeling of "hmm, were too different" kicks in, that keeps me interested into developing that friendship relationship. Also that snowballed into knowing a lot more people in general, that keeps me entertained I think

I think both social and technical skills.
In the social side, I aimed to be more social. Being able to go to a new group, make some friends there but still being myself. Being able to chat with some random girl at the train was unthinkable for me years ago for example. It is a fun adventure to try to improve in that regards, idk I take it as a little personal challenge.
I'm trying to be more disciplined, sticking to a routine, doing new sports, put some effort into those and see the progres, etc...
On the technical side, I knew I wanted to get into 3D printing since a long time ago and finally got into that, learning about it, improving. New objectives regarding work for the mid/long term.
I still feel like there is something more meaningful that I can do but it takes time for me to articulate what it is, all of the above helped me to understand a bit more what that meaningful can be.
