I’ve never been better, but I still feel empty

r/

Currently I am the best version of myself—better than I’ve ever been. My life is objectively good. I’ve worked hard, grown as a person, and accomplished things I once thought were out of reach. But for some reason, I still feel… empty. Like something is missing.

No matter what I do, I keep comparing myself to others. I know I should be proud of my progress, but I see people who seem happier, more successful, or just better in some way, as trivial it may be, and it makes me feel like I’m not enough.

    I think that the most common misconception we have about others is that they are happy and fulfilled all the time. It is not real nor expected to never feel empty. Fill the emptiness with anything but comparison to others because it will take all your joy away… Maybe the people you envy have bigger hidden problems you don’t know about, if it makes you feel any better.
