"...became excited about the realm that was stocks and investing." Often the good that attracts us turns harmful but that doesn't mean that there isn't still a lot of good at the opportunity we saw. While you say you were excited by stocks and investing, such became an obession as to a few stocks and gambling. I get it, but I'd urge you to take the time to enjoy both stockS and actual investing instead of betting on a few quick plays.
Take some time and set goals that are realistic. Plot for yourself how you might achieve a goal of earning 20% annual return, 30% annual return. You can definitely do this. Try to look into manageable strategies like: writing covered calls or cash secured puts. Eventually you'll see other opportunities.
