The solution is rather simple, actually: take a break. Real break. Seriously. If you keep pushing it, you will only end up being in a much worse situation.

Do something light for a while. Spend more time with your family, close friends etc. Try something new and interesting. Then, after a time, ask yourself again what you really want to do and simply start over. By that time you should be level-headed and open-minded about your previous venture and use that experience to your advantage. Either bootstrap one of your ideas, join a start-up/company that you like or, well, do what you always wanted to do.

Naturally, take this advice, like any other, with a grain of salt. I'm not you; it's your life.
