Am I too overprotective?

The fact that I can’t really give an opinion on this since my perception of the world is so skewed because my parents and older sister made me so scared of the world lol. Was always told I needed someone to watch out for me and that I couldn’t go places by myself even as an older teen. I sometimes wonder if this is the reason why now not only am I anxious in public and usually dissociated, but I also have a super hard time paying attention to my surroundings and have nearly been hit by cars because it’s like I can’t think logically in public…because I’ve always had someone watching out for me I’ve gotten used to not having to pay attention.

Unneeded rant but yeah. It really sucks and I wish parents would stop making their kids so fearful
