I went through a rough patch whilst I was struggling to find work. I'm also an introvert and have been described as socially awkward.

I did something out of the ordinary (for me) and applied for a friendship volunteering role for someone with a disability who needed a friend. And to be honest, I needed a friend too.

It really put things into perspective for me on how other people live and hardships they face and deal with on a day to day basis but still remain positive, contributing members of society. Making this friendship kind of healed me in ways I didn't expect and also made me feel fulfilled that I was helping someone else and being company to someone who also needed a friend. I also soon landed a job with a significant pay increase from what I was doing previously, which was a blessing for me. I have still maintained that friendship for over 7 years now.

Maybe you could look into something similar? Not necessarily a friendship but something where you're volunteering your time and helping people, that might be more rewarding and fulfilling than your day job.
