Welcome aboard. You will find friends here; people who are pulling for you and will do their best to offer their support and advise (some of which might even be good advise
 . I mean that in the nicest possible way as you can look forward to many people sharing their feelings and ideas with you, but on some level you will have to consider for yourself what works for you and what does not.)One thing that caught me from your post, you said that part of the reason you came here is: "Felt I'd lost even the desire to want to try to reclaim control, which is a terrible feeling." To me there's a paradox here, though it's one that I totally relate to and that is the fact that while you are saying that you lost the desire to reclaim control, and you probably are feeling that way on an emotional level, something deeper is pushing you. Something that compelled you to join here at the time when you felt like you were feeling less interest in making a change. I know the feeling, even though it's an idea I can't really wrap my mind around (other than to believe that we have conscious emotions that we feel, and maybe a deeper level of commitment or emotion that is there but we don't always feel...) Who knows, I'm rambling, but welcome aboard.
