This isn't an age thing but a sick system thing. When you're "in" the career treadmill it all feels urgent and important and your entire value revolves around it. Quit the job and spend a few weeks looking at the ocean or the mountains and it all fades away. My advice would be to be happy with less, and specifically to just move away from uber high cost of living areas where everyone is grumpy and it feels as if the sky is always falling.
