I have some gaps, short term jobs, and a few burned bridges in my work history that were due to issues with mental health.

Those issues have been addressed and I am thankfully a new person now.

How does one recover from this and get back to where they were before professionally?

I have a similar history, but have been in recovery for 26 years so I am doing ok now. I had not worked in 20 years when I decided to go back to school and get met my MS and become a therapist. Now I am looking for work and I recently redid my resume in a skills-based format and that seemed to do away with those blank years. I don't know what your career interests or job skills are, but whatever industry you eventually decide on will have its own basic competencies that every one must have and you could start there. Get curious on the internet...some job search boards offer free resume help, too. Good luck to you!

Overall they are both in the 75th% for total comp. for their industry. Am I wrong?
