Like you, I'm quite happy to have gone through youth (and middle age!) and be on the other side. I feel fortunate to have been a child of the 70s/teen of the 80s... no social media or anything remotely like that and probably, I'd suggest, the best music decade yet (although I did foolishly turn down the chance to go to Live Aid as I thought the roster wasn't heavy or punk enough for my tastes c. 1985! Idiot!!). The ONLY things I might be tempted for would be: (i) read Music at Uni (rather than English) and (ii) stick with my running (and not bloomin' smoke my way thru Uni!) and do a marathon instead of putting it off. But as I'm doing music now and still running, maybe I havent missed much. BTW - we love Ebb & Flow - has a prominent spot on our shelves in the new extension and ready at hand.
