Dear Capo:

I think you were uncomfortable answering my question ? If so, I am more than willing not to ask any more.

I didn’t see the answer to my question in your last post, even though I looked for it. Maybe it is in your statement that your parents had very right wing political views. Maybe they were suspicious/ distrustful of people, and since you were “overidentified with (your) parents”, as is natural for a child, you took in their suspicion and distrust. I don’t know.

Regarding the law-of-attraction, you felt like a terrible person for even considering that something may go wrong, because your mother taught you that it will go wrong if you think it will, something like that. To fear your own thinking inviting bad experiences causes anxiety.

I wish I had insight into your “Quarter Life Crisis” but I don’t. I tried.

Post again, if you’d like. Maybe I will understand something I currently don’t and maybe someone else reading will.
