I'm going to suggest something very "off the wall," so take it or leave it: try Roleplaying.

I wish that could work for me but I know myself well enough to know that it wouldn't. I think I'd feel a little too much like Don Quixote; a madman wandering around pretending to see things which aren't really there.
The inability to ever actually change things in the static world makes any attempt at roleplaying a little silly in my opinion. I mean, in a truly player run world with a player run economy I could see roleplaying happening almost accidentaly as a natural consequence of the game's dynamics. But EQ is not that world.
Anyway, I know it wouldn't work for me as a long term solution. Even if I could find people to do it with, it wouldn't hold me long. Really, how many times would people be willing to listen to my tale of being the rightfull heir to the throne of Qeynos and how I have a heriditary birthmark on my left butt cheek which proves it. And for that matter, how many times would I be willing to tell the story even if someone was listening? I'm afraid it would quickly go stale.
