Does life get better or worse after 30s?

Not sure why im making this post but.

Heres a little bit about my story. Im 30 years old woman, single, live with my Dad (and a step mom who doesnt want me here). Up until a couple of years ago i did have my own apartment but of course got evicted bevause i lost my job due to health problems again.

I have no degree. Due to major health problems and life being chaotic i had to take time off from college here and there to take care of myself.

I got married early and divorced in my mid 20s. It was very traumatic and left me depressed and rotting away the rest of my twenties trying to heal.

I feel i have so much potential but havent lived up to it.

At 30 im just starting to get very discouraged at my life when i see all my other high school classmates who are professors now, have a family or loving husbands, stay in a nice neighborhood. One of my classmates is even making lots of money investing and started their own company. Ive always had a brilliant mind, im good at art and books, but havent traditionally published any yet. I just dont know what im doing wrong. Infeel like in a few more years i will miss my chance at a w

Happy or stable life if i dont play my cards right.

I guess i just want to know if it life ever gets better or if anyone has else wasted away their twenties and made a comeback in their 30s yet?

I guess the goods news is not im working a stable job that i can handle, my health is better. The job doesnt pay very well but i make enough to get by. I save as much as possible between food and having a car, its not a lot every month. Living is expensive. But within a few months i should have enough saved up to move out into my own place again. Might be a challenge because my credit is horrible and there is already an eviction in my name. I owe my old apartment $3000 plus $500 to get the eviction file sealed if i ever want to get an apartment again. Which i do not. I never want to go through that feeling again.

Im doing youtube also. Not many subscribers but its a nice creative outlet and im looking to be monetized soon.

Once i finally do get back into my own spot i plan on finishing my psychology degree. Cant do it now because i just do not have the privacy or quiet or comfort to work fulltime, take care of myself mentally and physically and run a youtube channel and then do school.

Did i also mention i was lonely and have absolutely no luck in the dating scene? Most men here dont know what they want or they dont want anything serious.
