I was in a similar situation. wanted to leave the cyber security field, also the daily habits were difficult - sitting for endless hours, working with machines, chasing your own tail trying to keep up with newest tech...

I quit my job and some time afterwards lockdowns started. I found new passions in 3D & VR (blender, unity, quest 2)

I knew I will always love tech & science, just didn't know what to do for a living. after over a year of soul searching & job searching I nearly came to terms with my faith, as everybody told me: do what you're good at. so even though I wanted to freshen up, I was considered hobbyist (eg. 3d, ai, ds, basically anything remotely interesting to me that isn't cyber) and was difficult to find opportunities which were enjoyable. (lots of these are cool to study but job offers were boring because money easily corrupts...)

finally about a day before closing a contract (& dreading to do so) I found a Blockchain company. changed some habits, work out regularly & found good place socially & educationally & satisfying.

moral of my post is you just have to keep pushing forward, you can find new (or old) passions even with tech, or not tech, but you can.

good luck!
