> I aspire and believe in doing "great things". Let's start with that. You are worthwhile as a human being, whether or not you do "great things". You don't have to achieve something in order to be worthwhile, you already are. It sounds like you're frantically chasing some level of achievement that's in your mind, constantly comparing yourself against it, deciding that you're falling short, and therefore feeling miserable and/or like a failure. That's a terrible way to live. > Do I need help ? Don't take answers to that question from random strangers on the internet :-) But, maybe. It sounds like you have very unrealistic expectations for yourself. Me saying "hey, those are unrealistic expectations" may not be enough for you to let go of them. You may need help figuring out how to let go of them, how to take some joy in the journey even if you're not where you want to be yet.
