I'm nowhere near in your position, but the bucket list is pretty much done except for skippering a yacht on a major offshore passage. I've been sailing on and off since my teens and now have a yacht and am pushing into longer trips. There's a lot to learn. You need to push outside your comfort zone on a regular basis. But it's visceral, real, incredibly connected to physics and nature, and uniquely satisfying. When sailing you're completely disconnected from society, money, your upbringing, everything - and are reliant on your own preparation to literally keep yourself alive.
I'm not really making myself clear but ... Sailing has been great for my mental health. Perhaps it can help yours.
