How do I stop comparing myself and my life to others?
Nineteen years of living, and I’m still learning how to stop constantly comparing myself and my lifestyle to others. I often find myself caught in a cycle of unhealthy comparison, daydreaming about the life I wish for, only to feel heartbroken when I realize it might not come true.
I know this may sound self-centered or confusing, but it’s not that I’m ungrateful—I truly appreciate everything I have in my life. However, there’s this lingering feeling that something is missing, and I believe that ‘something’ might only be found in different circumstances. It’s been mentally exhausting, especially lately, and it’s becoming harder to focus on the blessings I already have.
I would really appreciate any advice on how to navigate these feelings 🥲🫶🏻
