Feeling lost

I just wondered if anyone else had felt like me.
Recently I've just felt like I'm on a complete hamster wheel of life....I feel like life is passing me by. I am married coming up to 10 years and have two children. Due to turn 40 next year which feels like an epic milestone that I'm not ok with! It's playing on my mind constantly. I just think the last ten years of my life have flown by, so will the next.....and then I'll be 50. I've started to wonder lately what is life is all about? not in a suicidal way, just feel confused about my purpose. Have been in a job for 12 years that I'm v unhappy in so think that's contributing to how lost I feel currently. No idea what else I what do work wise though..
I was on sertraline for two years before weaning off three months ago. Not sure if what I'm describing here is a relapse of low mood or a mid life crisis!! Interested to hear if others have felt similar x

If the pills work then I would stay on them for now. I was advised not to stop too suddenly.
