Can't upvote this enough... Spent a lot of my 20s wishing I could change things and make different decisions, but now I'm damn glad I wasn't able to because my 30s are significantly better than they would have been had I been able to make those changes.

You can definitely get there! Believe me, I know the feeling. Heck, this time a decade ago I was working 100 hour weeks, $100k in debt, with few friends nearby, no family for 1k miles, migraines 3-4 days a week, a perpetual stomach ulcer from stress, and seemingly no end in sight. Literally regretted every decision I'd made every morning when I woke up... For the last few years though I couldn't be happier that I made those same decisions, and haven't wished that I could go back and step in to a different life in years... Things do turn around!

Yeah I feel you, I'm 32 and things are rough, but the last few weeks i've been making changes and already have noticed some slight improvements. Am hoping a year from now things will be much better.

It's not too late to start over but with extra care now and avoid commiting same mistakes again
