Dear anita, thank you for another reply.
I have many goals to achieve, I tend to be kinda impatient about them but I will work on it. Lately I’ve made a list where I wrote down my goals and decided on which one I will focus first etc. So that’s a good way to go I think.
My parents think that there is only one good mindset / way to go through life. Similarly to other people that I know.
Although my parents are more supportive people than others, as they’re my family.
But still, they for example couldn’t fathom the fact that I don’t like my job and will quit it sooner or later. They said that it will be hard for me to find better job. After few weeks I managed to convince them that my decision is good for me, so they support me after all in that matter but it was kinda hard to sell them that idea.
That’s the main reason I hate to talk with them about my ideas or other concepts.

Dear Mark,
First of all I got into alcohol and other drugs because I was bored / sad about my life. That’s just the old habit, now I think that I keep it in moderation.
I try to be nice for other people and smile, have positive attitude generally.
Sometimes when I help other people I wonder, if they’re worth it? I mean, do some people even deserve to get help? That’s kinda weird thinking, I know.
And yeah, sometimes I’m overthinking about something before I actually do that and I mostly consider all the bad things. That’s where my fear strikes and prevents me from doing anything. I know I can overcome my anxienty but sometimes I’m just overthinking and fail.
Thank you so much for all the tips.
