Go "WTF, this can't be real" for a couple of weeks, probably. Wonder if this is one of those Groundhog Day things where the loop resets automatically.
My life got fucked up in my early 20s for health reasons beyond my control. Not sure what I could be doing about that. Try to remember some stocks or crypto that went through the roof, hope they'll still do that in this timeline, drop out of school to work early to have enough money to buy those? I actually wonder what the most effective job would be for that, I was never good at physical stuff but I wouldn't have much time to learn something that pays well before my body starts saying "fuck you".
I'll also crack a DAW and spent a lot of time on making music. It took me forever to figure out the tech/methods/music theory, and nowadays I don't really have the energy for it.
Edit: I just remembered that I did learn coding to a professional level. Shouldn't be too hard to find well-paying work with that back then, even without any official certification.
