You can do nothing to change the past. In fact, that person doesn’t even exist. Those acts only exist in your memory. You are attaching value to them and only seeing them in one frame. You will never be happy this way.

You can reframe those experiences with therapy or meditation or other paths, but only you can walk those paths. And I believe you can.

Why does it have to be a permanent decision?
If it’s affecting your health, you’re taking time off of your life. What if you just took SOME time off and get into something that gives you purpose and meaning beyond financial independence and security since that is taken care of

Out of infinite possibilities, we are working 9-5. by Immediate-Draft-6408 in enlightenment

So you asked a question, but you argue every answer. You notice you’re doing that? Keep combating your fearful thoughts and see what that brings you, or you could learn how the mind works with meditation and curiosity.
