Welcome here, Brother!
You are definitely not alone in this struggle: you have found this place.
I have been in kinda similar shoes - with a very huge difference though, as I have always seeked spirituality but then left it behind for pursuing a scientific career, which, luckily, did not work out so well after all - and know very well the feeling of being alone, nothing to talk with about all the higher concepts of life and being.
I wish you good luck in here, may you find the proper threads for your own growth, and may you ignore the topics that bring you discomfort and/or frustration. That is the only real advice I can give. Also, never forget to embrace what you believe now - it is so easy to fall back onto the old habits, after all.
