Great idea about the volunteering! Make sure to choose something you will feel comfortable enough doing. I find volunteer work often (not always) really gets me out of myself and gives me a bit of perspective.
Another type of place that could use help, I think (call to ask) are the poorest, run down, public general hospitals---the childrens units. Some of those kids get no visitors because their parents are so overwhelmed and don't come to see them. Warning, tho: it is hard to leave them afterward.
