Yea, I did that.

The important thing is to understand that life is expensive. The main expenses are cars, houses and families. How many of each of those do you want?

You need to understand wealth correctly before sacrificing a career. I am not sure if I should have spent more time making tech money or more years making nothing.

You should stay in tech long enough to establish the situation you need. Most professions pay dramatically less and require dramatically more.

Not everyone needs to journey the same. I wouldn't go to therapy unless if it were free and the drugs were too.
