[quote=Anonymous]Awww OP I’m sorry you’re struggling.

Are you talking about big picture injustice, like the fact that somewhere in the world a child is starving to death while pretty much every American can take comfort that won’t happen to them?  Or are you talking about comparisons with other Americans, like maybe a neighbor who isn’t as smart and doesn’t work hard yet has more money than you?

If it’s the former, I think all we can do is sit with it and accept that it’s sad and unfair. If it’s the latter, I think you should work on not comparing situations and practice gratitude. I bet you have a lot of blessings OP!

Also, even if someone looks like they have an amazing life, you never know what they’re dealing with. I bet people would think I have a pretty great life. They wouldn’t know that I was molested as a child and it messed me up for life. They’d never know the things my mentally ill mother said and did to me. But I still get out of bed and try to live my life to the fullest. I have accepted the cards I was dealt and make the most of it. [/quote]
