I still relapse but I am doing alot better. Ive realised you cant compare yourself. Life has given you different challenges to other people so you will never react in the same way to a situation. That may make it appear that they are doing better than me. However the challenges I face are ultimately different and incomparable. This is just a quick ramble before I go out but it sums up where I am at.

it’s a daily struggle. when i find myself comparing myself to other people, i have to stop. take a minute. and then tell myself that i have qualities they don’t have! i can’t compare myself to them because we are two completely different people!! besides, do i really want to be the same as every one else? nope!:) so, i’m working on embracing my individuality!

Cal is looking forward with joy and apprehension.
I missed passing a certification test today by 1% point and I felt as if I where a failure, not as if I had messed up on a test. It was hard to show my face to the other employees, though they were very supportive. I am a proud man, which I see as a negative, and I will have to retake the test within two weeks.

I’m a really competitive person and I have this addiction to comparing myself with others, whether it be popularity, career, and money.
But I think this competitive side has caused a lot of self-destruction and exhaustion.
I want to get rid of it…but it’s so a part of me I don’t know how.

I usually compare myself a lot to other people and how they are doing at a certain thing that I do, too. If they’re better, I’m depressed because I’m not as good as them. It’s not worth it to be in a bad mood just becasue someone can do something better than yourself.
That’s why I decided that I want to compare myself only to myself and not to anyone else. Like this, I’ll feel good about my achievements because I got better than I was before. It just makes you feel better and not be depressed about something someone else achieved and that you didn’t achieve yet.

I’m trying to find a therapist in my area to help me with this.

I dont even know why i compare myself to other people, but i do. Well its only certain people and it urkes the hell out of me. peopl like this:
`The ones that are fake and try to hide who they really are and where they come from
`The ones that claim to be doing so much but isnt really doing anything
`The ones that live at home with their parents,or thats getting government assistance-but claim to be big ballers
`The ones that always seem to always get over on people or things and never get caught.
These kind of people really annoy me-but i stay comparing myself to them when im the total opposite from them and it really needs to stop!

that is supposed to be part time, so that I can be “semiretireed.” I seem to be working with a lot of young people. In fact some of my supervisors are younger than my kids. I find that I want to “prove myself” when it is not necessary!

Bettina is trying to live life with a smile!
I need to stop seeing what others have and start seeing what I have.

Others, others, others, what do they think about me?
Do they like me?
Am I beautiful?
Am I popular?
A lots of questions a lot of jealousy.
I want to stop it, others are oters, I am me!
The people who are important don’t care, the people that care aren’t important!
My new way of life; ‘she’s got fashionable clothes, nice for her, I’ve got something that she hasn’t and thats my life, my friends and my family.
Whats more important? Clothes of friends and family?’
