Have you considered just getting off the internet for a few weeks (as much as possible)?

You would only be thinking this way if you weren't pushing yourself with your reading.
You need to put more years of reading in. Read and read and read and read.
You're not as naturally brilliant as you think you are, kid. You'll have to actually work for this.

Many writers started writing their masterpiecs in their later years. All of the readed and practiced their craft for their entre life.

This is very likely, and even if you succed in becoming a great writer chances are that you will die poor. This is how society works now, and there's not much you can do. If you write truly great literature it will be extremely hard to sell, and art patronage is a dead concept at this point.
tl;dr: you may still produce great art, but that doesn't imply financial stability

If you were really made for this you'll be too obsessed with your work and the work of others to really care in the end.
Life is a trade-off, innit.
