Thanks everyone for taking time to read and offering your thoughts on my situation.
For the past few years, I've been working alone from home, locked away in my room for the most part, and well lurking on HN.
I feel lifted to see the responses here.
My other problem now is that I have too much work on my plate that I have trouble completing. Previously I naively took on new projects as the older ones seem to be taking forever just to sign off on deliverables.
And honestly, there was the greed factor too - it was nice to receive the deposit to kickoff a new project since I've not been getting a salary for the past few years.
But now they are all coming back at the same time and I'm overwhelmed.
And with my diminishing interest in backend programming, I'm hoping to partner with a backend developer to help me out. Do drop me an email (launchplus@gmail.com) if you are keen.
All in all, I feel really foolish about a lot of the mistakes I made during this freelancing period. I will be joining a VC funded startup for a full-time job after I'm done with my current contracts, hopefully that will put my career back on track.
