Default Problems with drawing

I feel like some of my biggest problems are playing drawing hands in poker. Even though I won this hand I didn't feel good about it at all. Am I getting the right price on the flop? I was trying to control the pot on the turn... but is this a +EV play?

misplayed on every street.

raise pf. limp/calling is ugly. flop c/c is okay i guess.

i actually don't mind the turn as much. lets you draw cheaply/etc. given flop, you can either c/c turn or bet small/fold to a raise.

river bet more. like 70+. given his turn flat call, i would think villan is passive. against an aggro i might c/r river shove.
