Does your local community college have a career counseling department?  If so,  
you might meet with them for help in clarifying career goals.  Of course,  
they're likely to suggest that you take classes there, but they can still  
offer some unbiased advice.  I'd stay away from rehab types for now; they're  
usually too concerned about filling pigeonholes.

In general, there are 3 questions you have to answer in any undertaking:
1) Where am I now?
2) Where do I want to be
3) How do I know I'm getting there?

It looks like you need a little help with #2.  You might want to ask yourself  
what career choices people you admire have made and whether or not those  
choices would be right for you.  In any case, if you become interested in a  
choice, try to talk at length with others who have made the same choice.
