How do I overcome the pressure to be flawless and perfect?

I’ve been pressured to succeed ever since I was a small child. My social group told me that if I don’t get a degree that I would end up being a manager of a McDonald’s. The pressure was so bad that I was put on pills. I stopped contact with most of my family and went on strike. I’m finally getting ready to study some science passively. Also can I get an apology from my schools for putting pressure on me so bad that I got sick for the majority of my enrollment? I’m not allowed to visit
my niece and nephew because I’m diagnosed with a mental illness that their parents created. Sounds like I am getting screwed over. What do you think? What can I do to make lemonade from these lemons ?
