I spent a large portion of my late 20s/early 30s in a pretty bad state, but found my way out in my late 30s. The biggest difference was to try to only deal with one dumpster fire in my life at a time, if possible. I was dealing with several, and wasn't able to handle any of them adequately. Unstable relationship, unstable health, unstable employment/money; any of those I could manage individually. Taking that seriously may mean choosing lower pay/more stable employment, ending a _possibly_ salvageable relationship, etc. None of those are easy, but in retrospect it would've been easier than trying to manage all of them simultaneously, badly.
