I would second applying for disability (SSD, assuming USA). This support system is supposed to be there for you if you have no other options.
Unfortunately, it takes some effort (and/or help) to convince the government, but I've heard only good things from those on it (i.e., the funds help to bootstrap yourself out of the pit).
The Buddhist thing is also not too far-fetched... maybe not becoming a monk per se, but rather finding some other calling in life to provide meaning and break out of the prison. Of course, easier said than done when in the prison...
