i can’t stop comparing myself to other people. it’s hard to think that something i did was good because i just automatically think about people who do it better

Well there’s literally always gonna be someone better than you at basically every single thing. But that doesn’t mean what you’re doing isn’t still good. Also there’s always gonna be someone worse too. Idk how to help u stop thinking that way, maybe therapy or something, but it’s not helpful to live ur life that way and it’s just gonna make u depressed

yeah idk either. lmao i grew up hearing “there’s always gonna be someone better than you and there’s always gonna be someone worse than you” but it doesn’t really help. especially since there’s so much competition in my major. i am in therapy and i’ve had times where my confidence was much higher but a lot of shit has gone down since then that’s just wittled me away unfortunately. thank you tho
