A friend of mine, a bassist, broke his arm and cannot play right now and he's miserable.
I was oddly, since you cannot cry, going to suggest you get in touch with music Bach, a Beethoven symphony (or even heavy metal!) to provide some peace to you during this very difficult time...
Also, I don't know whether you're near a museum, but going to see fine arts can help lift our spirits.
As for the abstract passion which requires love from other people, I cannot really comment, except to say work on yourself and practice good self-care and have patience.
Hope your luck will change for the better and that you will get back on track.

About the museums. Well, I travel/commute quite a lot because I study abroad and every weekend I come home. I hate the city which is close to my home, I don't feel at ease there. On the other hand, I love the city where I study, but I don't think there are many places conecrning visual art.
I have no idea about my hand recovery, I am still not sure about the diagnosis, but it got really serious in last few days.
When I was learning and playing piano, I played Bach or Beethoven. But you are right with heavy metal. Right now, I'm having a Five Finger Death Punch marathon when I'm home. On Saturday and today, I attended Metallica in movie theatres. Today's concert was one of their best ever. They are the band which got me into playing music. I actually have a James Hetfield signature guitar and Kirk Hammett signature wah-wah pedal. Today, I was singing aloud in the cinema whole 2,5 hours. But the longing to grab my guitar...
Unfortunatelly, I must say that although music is much more than a hobby for me, I know it will never be the part of my life I'd like it to be. Also, there are problems in my band, so even if I will be able to play, I don't know what it will be like...
I take care of myself, I have some lifelong health problems so I need to eat accordingly. I am depressed that doing my best was never enough to achieve anything.
