I'm scared of following my dreams.. As a child, if I even dared to utter them, my mum would act as judge and jury, determining whether my dreams were 'good enough'.. If I wanted to do something she didn't like, she'd alter between giving me the silent treatment and flying into horrifying fits of rage..

I wonder how I can get over the fear.. My therapist seems to think I should share my dreams with my friends and get their support, but I don't feel like they support me.. I feel they're jealous and like it's a game of who's living the best and coolest life.. That sucks

Maybe I should try and find online communities where people share my interests, like travelling.. Maybe they'd be all for supporting me.
