People are often dependent on someone or on something. Simply because that is how their life has turned out. And it seems very difficult to change something in your destiny, almost impossible. Rare individuals with willpower are able to abandon their usual way of life, overcome their own fears and gain independence. Only after such a serious step can you understand that real happiness is an individual view of the world and decisions made on your own.

Step 1
Think about what exactly you want to achieve. Perhaps complete autonomy is not your goal at all. The fact is that almost all modern people are relatively dependent. For example, few people do not need money. Therefore, they are earned and then spent on satisfying needs. And only the inner qualities of the person himself can help to find that golden mean where he does not fall into extreme dependence, but also does not become completely independent. Freedom should bring you joy, not become a problem.
Step 2
Decide on your values in life. Awareness of dependence (on a loved one, on money, on food, etc.) usually does not come immediately. The current state of affairs is dragging on gradually, like a funnel. And only after a considerable period of time, you can understand that you have fallen into a trap, from which it is not so easy to get out. Indeed, brushing aside the past and starting from scratch is a global and difficult task. Therefore, in order not to go to extremes, start small: spend your vitality not only on what you depend on, but also on other, new hobbies. Broaden your horizons. Let many important points appear in your routine. Then it will be much easier to overcome the addiction: you can simply refuse it. And many other things will not let you lose heart.
Step 3
Try to get over all fears and doubts. Let the steps you take to your goal be small, but the main thing is not to give up. For example, set aside one consolidated day in your schedule and be left alone with decisions to make. Be strict with yourself to build willpower. Understand that all actions involve responsibility for them. Starting with small decisions, continue with more meaningful ones. Thus, you can gain independence. Over time, confusion will be replaced by the satisfaction that you have become an independent, self-sufficient person.
