Alcohol is never the answer to anything. It sounds like you're dealing with at least mild depression, and booze makes that worse. Alcohol is a depressant, it screws with your brain chemistry, and after the buzz from the first drink of the day, it pulls you down into deeper darkness.
I would suggest that you give up booze for at least a month and see how you feel after that. If you find that you're unable to cope with life without alcohol, then you clearly have a serious problem with booze, and you should do something about that.
I'd also suggest that you spend way too much inside your own head, and you possibly have unrealistic expectations of yourself and how life is supposed to go. I wouldn't be surprised if you spend a lot of time on social media and you believe that the carefully curated versions of themselves that people post there are a true reflection of their lives.
It's not unusual for people to take a long time to find a purpose and decide what they need to do in order to feel that their life has some larger meaning. Spending time in natural surroundings can be a good way of getting out of your own head, and many people find that helping less fortunate people in some sort of voluntary way helps them gain some perspective on their lives and allows them to feel better about themselves.
