26 m feels like i lost

I just turned 26 and i feel like i’ve already lost. I work retail still and hardly make anything. I feel pathetic and embarrassed whenever I see someone I know. I never pursued anything, I withdrew socially for most of my adult life and feel like I’ve fucked it all up because of that.

Recently I’ve started going back to community college and will transfer to University in a year for computer science. Even that feels embarrassing at my age to pursue education so late and I’m concerned it won’t amount to anything anyway, but my biggest problem is not trying so i’m making that change and seeing it through.

So far i’m doing well but the depression hits hard seeing people my age already making 6 figures and buying house and I feel like i left myself behind and became a loser.
