How long do I need to wait before returning to Thailand after using a 180-day multiple entry tourist visa?

I ask for advice from those more experienced than me, I entered Thailand with a 180-day multiple entry tourist visa, arrived on February 5, then left and came back, finally left again on August 4. Now I would like to return at the end of November and stay another 6 months, but more than one person has told me that they could deny me entry into the country because I have already stayed too long; I am an Italian citizen, how much time must pass from when I left the Kingdom (August 4) to be able to return? I am 58 years old but I am not a pensioner, what type of visa do you recommend I get? Thanks to those who answer me

TLDR : Answer Summary
An Italian citizen who has used a 180-day multiple entry tourist visa seeks advice on the required waiting period after leaving Thailand on August 4, 2023, before attempting to return in late November for another six-month stay. They have concerns regarding potential entry denial due to extended stays. Commenters suggest checking the Thai Embassy's guidelines and mention the possibility of applying for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) for those over 50, regardless of pension status.

If you qualify for DTV you should absolutely try to get that while it is still available.

You only need to be over 50, it doesn't matter if pensioner or not

Tourists who are granted a visa and followed the regulations have no problem returning to my knowledge
