You shouldn't do anything that will be permanent because there's a good chance this is a temporary problem.
Maybe you could spend some time camping on a bicycle/hiking/slow-walking trip? Basically being homeless, but in a healthy way. Come by your parents house as needed?
Reading ancient history and ancient primary sources is my most therapeutic-feeling form of mental escapism. Maybe it could help you to project your mind back a few couple years.
Of course, you should get someone to help you. Either friends/family and/or professionals. This is normal human problem stuff you're going through and it's okay to need help.
