I know I am a competent adult, and I know what I am doing. I am smart, and I have worked very hard to get where I am today. However, I still feel like a can't do anything on my own, or without some kind of support or second word from someone helping me. Anyone else feel like this?

I have a slightly different situation. I feel like I've been a failure so far and blame it on my dependence on other people. Now, I walk a tougher road alone and, during this journey so far, I've learned more than I ever had. I'm curious if you are having doubts on what you're doing now since these thoughts don't arise unless you are doubting about your decisions. I felt that way when I felt like I'm not living the life I wanted.

I think maybe my anxiety of the past gets in the way of my future. I actually just accepted a job doing what I have always wanted to. Im excited and nervous, but I know no one expects me to be perfect in my first, second, or even fifth year.
