Am I over the hill? Or do I have mid life crisis? I go mountain biking to relieve stress but when I get home, I have dread feeling again

Does anyone feel the same way?

I feel the same way. I am 51 and cant seem to find a true vocation. I worked for 20+ years in the same industry; and that industry (for-profit education), has sort of blown up. I got burnt out on enrolling people in go nowhere online degree programs that cost 70K for a bachelors. No I earn almost half of what i did in a lame customer service job - truth is the organizations culture is awesome, very laid back, my boss is almost too laid back, so I really have nothing to complain about. I still do complain though and I am starting to literally believe I am losing my mind. My therapist suggests I need to find my purpose and I agree, but that for me is easier said than done. As an "adult child" of alcohol and dysfunctional family i have gone 40 years in denial of my needs. So I drive 45 minutes to a job that is not fulfilling in the least, and 45 minutes home and watch TV (an addiction). I need to change some thing!
