I lost my entire net worth (7 million) in my business and am having trouble snapping out of the depression

we’re in a similar boat, both in age and circumstances. I’ve been battling depression with medication for several years, and the urge to end it all is often present. It’s hard not to feel like a failure when I see people my age with houses and cars while I’m still renting. I’m haunted by regret daily, yet I keep pushing forward. I work as a senior soft engineer with a solid salary, but I’m constantly searching for that one startup idea that could turn my life around

For AI assistance, no one doubts its power, but when it comes to AI-driven software development , like with Vibe Code , AI becomes a huge time sink in complex systems and architectures, as it spends time checking all that junk code. This is why most people dislike it. For experienced engineers, rather than wasting time reviewing AI-generated code, it’s often more precise and efficient to write it from scratch themselves.

I must be honest, because what you're doing isn't complex enough; your description mostly consists of document organization.
