Pray for understanding and for clarity and then hang on for the ride He will bring to you. We all have specks and maybe even some planks. Of course God already knows that, He is just waiting for us to realize it too, thus the prayer.

Amen.Thank God that He is the Expert "Speck-Remover".
Revelation 19:12 His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. 13 He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God.
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

Well you’re already headed in the right direction. I’m taking it as a given you’ve submitted this to prayer. First you recognize it. (Many don’t) Second you have a contrite heart by wanting to change. Third you’re transparent to the point of admitting it to others. (Although over the Internet. Face to face usually causes a greater result)>Which I’m guessing might help you work through this not knowing the whole story.

Clarity, to me, is simplicity in Christ. Simplicity is like a light guiding me through the winds of doctrine, saying to me, this is the way.
Isaiah 30:21 Your ears will hear a word behind you, “[a]This is the way, walk in it,” whenever you turn to the right or to the left.
John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Hopefully, you find another one without a speck or plank in their eyes and could help you
Yes, we have the carpenter/physician.
