Lost my career during a 2.5 year Psychosis

I'm 39M with a wife and 2 small kids. I slowly descended into paranoia and delusions. I thought I was a prophet and we were living in the End Times.

I quit my job and spent our life's savings preparing for the apocalypse. I have a degree in Mechanical Engineering that I can't use anymore because I can't break back in. I can't explain the 3 year gap in my resume.

I got a job as a CNC Brake Press operator instead. Working the evening shift.
