I learned not to compare myself to other people a long time ago and I was holding on to this verse; (Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.)
Didn't know what to do, where im headed or which path to go even until now but i was faithful to wait. Despite all the silent battles, the voices in my head, discouragement along the way and people pulling me down slowly I managed to keep myself sane cause if this was me 2 years ago I would've been dead by now.
Anyways, I'm writing this because I wanted to speak for those people who has experienced the effects of being compared to other people, well most people have but it hits different when that constant comparing is taking a toll on your mental health.
For the most part the people who does that are the ones you love, the ones close to your heart and that no matter how BAD you want to get rid of them because their destroying you, YOU CAN'T. Thats how you will start to think negatively about yourself, but don't let their voices dig up into your mind hold on to the faith you have to the Lord. We can get through this cause one day when we look back the fight you had against your mental health will all be worth it.
If you whose reading this does that I hope you understand how hard it is, how heavy and depressing it is if your trying to compare a person to someone else when they are in their lowest point in life especially when you play a big part in their life. People like you are one of the reasons why suicide rate rises to 25.7% here in the philippines. I hope the next time you do that you think about what if it was you would you be able to handle? if you think you can cause you're strong enough, good for you. But not all are strong as you.
