Meh, idk..

I've been feeling down and out about myself, recently yesterday I stumbled upon ig profile of someone who did something wrong to me before. Her life seems so perfect on Instagram. There are posts of her at the beach or with friends flashing money. I started to compare myself to her feeling like I was less then i was like wait a minute, why am I comparing myself to that person. Maybe I'm just depressed. I have an older sibling who compares me a lot to that person on why I can't be like her or how he wishes I was like her, idk maybe I'm just feeling down is all. I don't want pity I'm just venting.

if her life was so great she wouldn't need to put it on social media it seems shallow and desperate to me.

That's why I hate social media. It gives you the perception that everyone's life is so amazing, while you're on the couch scarfing down Ben and jerry's. But everyone has problems and insecurities.

Most people that do all that fake flashy shit are really miserable.
You seem pretty cool in your own right. Individuality is the most badass imo.

@Snorky You're welcome. :) Someone can have all the money in the world and still be dumb, low class and even an asshole . So yeah ..

A long time ago I read a small book by Paul Haugh - I can't remember the title. But the best thing in it was along these lines.

Stop thinking of Self-Esteem - Esteem has at it's heart a need to compare with others to determine a ranking. Instead think of Self-Worth - as long as you are believing that you are worthy you are.

It helped me anyways.

I think that those that are usually posting pics of how great and "awesome" their life are very shallow and it's not as great as it seems ...
But yes I understand how you feel.

So easy to say but we shouldn't compare ourselves to anyone else
