I'm almost in my 40 and I can feel the OP's pain.

But I agree with @jaitaiwan, you look you're burnt-out rather than depressed. It's too easy for us to focus on our skill and less about our emotion & other things. Then over time, we see less light on our career because what we left is only the skill which probably already obsolete.

Skill is tradable but a person is not. You're who you're. If you like what you do, then it's fine. But if tech genuinely doesn't excite you, then looking for what you like now is not too late.
