I still feel like a failure even though I'm very close to having the job I want and taking the path I want in life. Even though I've complete college and graduate school. But I still feel like a failure. And I'm terrified that I'm going to fail my interviews and won't get a job and will end up living at home for the rest of my life.

You're doing wonderfully, especially in this day an age. It's hard, I know, I'm still looking, and I have those fears too. But you've gotten much farther than you think, especially if you're close to going down your career path!

I know. I keep telling myself that. I have an interview for a job I really want tomorrow. And I'm trying so hard to do my research and not psych myself out. And I know that if I don't get it, it doesn't mean anything. But I know it is going to hit me hard if I don't or if the interview doesn't go well.

I suggest you look into some research on self-compassion. Try Kristin Neff's TED talk on Youtube to start, or her website/book. In college I hated myself so hard for not being good enough--despite my extremely high GPA and other successes--that I was diagnosed with depression and regularly went to therapy. After I figured out that all my self-hating talk was making my life hell, I started practicing self-compassion techniques like mindfulness and self-comfort, and I'm now completely free of depression. (Still got some anxiety, but seriously, zero depression.) Your perception of your own life is as important as the reality of your life. You are the one person who can be there for you at every moment of your life, so why not learn to be a good friend to yourself?
