Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Please advise me on how to give up comparing myself to others. I get really unhappy and depressed when I see others, my friends, and colleagues living better lives.

Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

First.I would like to emphasize that you do not always have control over events or what people do, but what matters is how you deal with them. Everyone is unique in their way. The key thing is to keep moving forward in life; comparing oneself to others or worrying is pointless. What you need to do is manage your stress, and the following methods can help you achieve the same:

  1. Daily meditation for at least half an hour in the morning aids with relaxation and concentration.

  2. Allow at least one hour every day for your interests.

  3. Do not be aggressive and communicate with people.

  4. Do tasks or pursue goals that you are passionate about.

  5. Determine your priorities and work appropriately.

  6. Remember that every problem has a solution; all you have to do is try to solve it, and help is only a step away.

Thank you
