I am sincerely interested in the perspectives of others who might have been stymied by a sense of futility, transitoriness, or insignificance, but who have worked through that mentally and kept on going, whether in music or other arts.
Sometimes I feel outside of things, and I don't know what to do with the rest of my life.
Why bother?

The only thing that works for me is meditation. It's not even a case of 'regaining perspective' for me, it's just a relief to shut the brain down for a while but it's surprisingly difficult to literally 'not think'. It's difficult but it can be learned. Some Tai Chi techniques can give you a way in, by enabling you to think only of the movements.
Hope you can find something that helps.
