Hi everyone! I (26F) have been struggling a lot with comparison and feeling as if everyone’s life around me is perfect. Where I live I feel as if no one really struggles. Everyone gets married at a young age, has kids, their parents help pay for their houses, inherits their families businesses or have amazing careers right away and it just feels as if I can’t catch up. I can’t help but feel as if I’m always falling behind or that I’m doing something wrong in life. I’ve gone through some struggles in my own life and I feel as if I’m the only one. I guess my question is are these peoples lives really as perfect as it seems or is there usually a lot more behind the scenes?
