What are your realistic dreams ?
Well, it's really more accurate to say they were my dreams. I wanted to play in a band, have a family, have atleast a solid circle of friends, and be good at drawing but they all fell and got smashed on the ground.
of those, the thing you have most control over is becoming good at drawing. can you get a sketchbook and practice? they say competency takes 10,000 hours.

i said 5 words that ended up getting me thrown out of medicine, something that i went to school for for 11 years. i have recovered and also learned a bit of tact. i also have a husband now to run things by before i say them.
s**t! I nicked the aorta?
rather, "to get a good surgeon" as my reason for transferring the patient to a different hospital. folks who got angry with me hounded me until my reputation was so sullied that i lost my license.
Good for you for putting your patient first , shame it cost you your career though

I have a sketchbook but whenever I try to draw something, I end up trashing it because I either mess up or my creativity dries up.

that's okay. stay with it. also, try to remember that you are hard on yourself. maybe take something that you don't think is completely awful for a fresh opinion. let any compliments temper your own negativity. a russian novelist threw a just-finished novel in the fire, thinking it poor. a friend fished the novel out and had it published. it sold well.

I honestly think I am too old to learn anything new or re-train my brain. Apparently the brain stops developing at a certain age and is fixed until death. If that's so, I should just go ahead and put myself out of my misery.
