Yes, lots of people have (and I did as well, a bit earlier but around the same age). There's no easy trick, no how-to you can follow and get a guaranteed result. Nothing with which you can bypass hard work on it and not have to confront uncomfortable feelings. You have to spend hours (years in my case), and in the end you won't exactly be in heaven. But there are also unexpected rewards on the way, moments when things click into place and life feels more effortless, full and rich. I'd share more specific things, but for me it also was a long path of finding out what works and what doesn't, and these might be different for you. And, of course, mistakes, setbacks etc. along the way. For me, it always has been important to just make a move rather than get it right the first time. Always be moving. I often hate that, but its true. So if this applies to you as well, don't over analyse how to do it, what your best move is, don't spend a year studying what to do on the internet. Just do something: take up a sport, talk to friends, find a therapist (any, and if it don't work out find the next one), do some from of group therapy, meditation, medication, take up a hobby (and drop it), etc. It doesn't matter what you do, the important thing is to get moving, let go what doesn't work and don't stop. Because, what else are you going to do? You have nothing to lose.
