Then take this in the spirit of optimism that it CAN be done: What you want out of your job sounds a lot like being either a nurse, social worker, or depending on where you work even a paralegal. Becoming any of those isn't easy, it's hard work in school and out, and you'll need a job that you don't hate but pays well enough to cover for that, but like almost all things worth doing they can be done with hard work and perseverance.
The most important thing I can tell you is not to fall into the trap of thinking that everything MUST come from one place. It really doesn't have to, you might well never find the job that lets you help people, bring the world together, and excell on your own terms. But you can DEFINITELY find a job where you help people, volunteer work where you help the world, a relationship that helps you be a better person, and personal projects that you do for your own enjoyment.
Once you understand that you don't need to get everything from any one thing even getting a job that just pays well and has decent hours lets you find places to volunteer or work on the side that provides fulfillment in other ways and your job can just support that.
