Your written story comes across to me mostly as regrets of counterfactual timelines; the result of your perception because of societal pushes. If you wrote "25 years of successes", I wonder how it would read?
> What type of mental health professional should we seek out?
What a strange question... the implication is that you think your life problems (perhaps completely normal) are due to a medical condition. Perhaps ask the people who know you best what mental health conditions you have. It's a slippery slope once you submit into the mental health vampire system (and abrogating your agency has other psychological costs).
What's the medical term for a hypercondriac that believes there's something wrong with their mental health so badly that there is something wrong? I'm pulling your leg: it is normal to worry and do seek help if you actually need it. Usually family and friends have a good idea if you need professional help: mental health problems are almost defined as problems that cause you and your loved ones severe downsides and outcomes are often visible (less commonly well hidden).
In theory, coaches are the people to help us learn to attain goals. Is get councelling getting coaching?
The article itself is frustrating because it a narrative based on self-diagnosis using psych terms (conditioning, dopamine). Any comments here are framed within that context. I wonder how their friends would explain the problem they have identified?
I think I agree. These are my memories and our memory is not great. I've even learned that when I am most confident, I am more likely to be incorrect. It's not lost on me that I am relying on my own imperfect memory.
> What a strange question...
My question was specific to the comment I replied to, which suggested a mental health professional, which I was contrasting to a family physician.
