What you need and what you find are very personal.
Look around here, read old posts, read the "best of" section and see what, if anything, strikes a cord.
We are all very differerent here, but we are all in this together,

Welcome, Brokenhearted63.
There are reasons for why we are where we are.
In trying to understand and accept these reasons, we can improve and find some peace, without judging ourselves too harshly.
Pride and shame: Seeing that your behavior arises on its own - out of your particular biologically given traits and your particular career through life, not from a non-material controlling self - might pry you loose from excessive pride and shame. Your successes resulted from personal characteristics given to you in their entirety by nature and nurture, combined with circumstances in which you could express your talents. Likewise, your failures arose not from some weakness of will that could have been otherwise, but out of conditions which can be understood as the natural unfolding of physical and psychological processes. Anyone with the same internal and external circumstances would have done as well, or as badly. Understanding this won’t change the fact that you enjoy success and regret failure, but it may loosen the grip of ego and ease the burden of self-blame.

Peace and love to you, friend.
