It sounds like you have done it wrong. Your original job sounded horrible. For your sanity, quitting was the only way forward.
However, I don't see what kind of net you put in place for when you quit. You don't appear to have lined up another job. You mentioned freelancing but you don't specify how much time you spent trying to kick start that before leaving your paid job.
At the end of the day, if you jump ship you need some sort of raft to stay afloat. Going from paid work to nothing is really hard as you loose your salary then have to spend an unknown amount of time trying to get something going. It is far better to get something at least moving before quitting a job and putting time in it.
I haven't read what the rest of the responses say here but I say stop being a pansie. Get your life together. Decide if you want to go into employment or continue self employed. Dedicate 60 hours a week to making whatever you decide work.
You are where you are, stop dwelling on it. Decide what you want to do next.. make it happen.
Or stay at home, disappoint your parents, have difficulty finding a lady friend and become a bum. Its up to you.
