| Recently I've noticed that I compare myself with others in my head quite often, and I don't think it's a very healthy thing to do. How about you? |

| no because it would be an insult to myself to compare myself to people who cant even stand on their own two legs properly |

| It's not good for one's mental health, but I'm pretty sure it's something most if not all people do or have done at one point. Regardless, when I inevitably do it, try to keep in mind that absolutely no one has their shit together. |
Take care of yourself |
| Comparing yourself with other people on social media will definitely make yourself feel terrible. People only share the good things that happen to give an illusion that they have their shit together. |
 |
| Nope not really. I hate comparing myself with others. |

| yes like most people do im sure, but i try to avoid it as much as possible because its unhealthy especially on social media that is known to make you depress or frustrated when you compare your self to others seemingly perfect life |
| Yes i do. I really shouldn't though, because it just makes me feel bad about myself. |
| little to none since I find it pointless to compare myself with others it doesn't change the fact that I'm still me it either boosts my ego or lowers my self esteem I did that quite often in the past but now I'm focusing on improving myself and compare myself with the old me |
| Yep I do, always having last clothes (i don't mean last balenciaga stuff nor supreme huh just not wearing 1990 metalica tee), see if my hair is better than others and also judging a lot. I know i shouldn't worry about all of this but idk i've always been like that. More recently i found out a girl in my school (from insta) was making cringy cosplay on bridges with stupid effects and she wasn't even realizing how dumb she looked, i couldn't help but to show all my friends with me laughing about her (was too lazy to reorder the text sorry if it hurts to read) |

| Yeah, pretty much all the time, even though I know it’s not okay. |
 Ｓｗｅｅｔ♥I guess, as long as I have life, all I can do is fight with all my might. |
ye unfortunately. i pretty much see everyone as better than me. |
| Not really. I've always been very different than others, and I do not mind that. |
  WORK IN PROGRESS ~The frog leapt forth to my lilypad memory.~ I was indoctrinated by an inamorata rabbit, Adenomata affronted. It was the verecund, dismissed creatures That I jubilated in most. This rabbit I would nurture, At the aiguille of esse, The anneal of noblesse. ❤️ Birdie ❤️ |
| i always note my similiarity and disimiliarity to others, where are they better at, where am i better at. Then oftenly my mind just goes "oh well, that's quite unfortunate." "oh. i gotta learn why and how he/she does that." So comparing for me is quite... err.. positive? |
| I think it's good to compare yourself to others to gain perspective and learn why things are different for them. You could improve yourself or perhaps help someone else out. As long as you don't start self-deprecating that is. |
   ~ this night has opened my eyes and I will never sleep again the dream has gone ~ |
| Yesh I do all the time. I cry about not being aesthetic enough |

| I do everyday, and the conlcusion is always that my penis is probably bigger than theirs, if nothing else. |
| Life ain't a competition, so no. And if I did, I'd be seeing their talents and success as inspiration as a way to try and identify how I can make myself better. The only person I compare myself to is the guy in the mirror, he's the one I ever need to one-up |
| If I didn't compare myself to others I wouldn't be able to fully appreciate the snazzy goddess that I am. |
| I compare them with me, not the other way around. I'm the standard of measurement. I will analyze their personality to determine compatibility with me. |

| No, because everyone secretly has demons they're fighting. How fair would it be for me to judge someone unless they tell me what's going on under their hood? |
| I try not to although sometimes I catch myself doing it. |
 |
| Often as the ole brain will let me. But, I'm not other people. We all have different stories to tell. Some people are just destined for greatness or get everything handed to them, others get the short end of the stick and have to go through a life of hardship. Wherever we are in our life, we have to remember that we all go through our highs and lows - yes, even the ones who seem to have it together. You are not other people. Focusing on other people stunts the growth of your ownself. If you watch someone else's magnolias grow, you'll eventually neglect to water your own. This is something I've been working on, myself. Others may be ahead in life, but that's because they're on a chapter of their own story. Perhaps stop reading over their shoulders, and get back into reading your own! It's getting to the good part! Don't lose your spot. |

| Compare to improve yourself? Yes, that's not wrong. I understand people want to be as good or useful at something as the others. However, if you compare to insult? Please stop it. You either don't get improvement nor helping to improve other people. I compare myself with other people even friends many times and pondering why I am not as good as them and what do I have to do to improve myself. |
I feel so blue ... you are my world ... but you are not mine ♫    |
| It's perfectly hard not to do so, I mean comparing is a pretty standard way of being realist. |

For me I think it's pretty healthy, because I'll use that comparison to improve myself. For example, when I was younger, I really really looked up to Johnny Depp. I've tried to emulate certain things about his character that I admired. I think that's helped me become a better version of myself over time. |

| Unfortunately I do it all the time. At school, when I browse the internet, when I talk to others... It's tiring and I wish I could stop doing it so often to enjoy life more but on the other hand it helps me to try my hardest to not fall behind... |

| Yeah I hate to admit it but I do it all the time at Uni, sometimes it was good as I 'made myself better' but most if the time it's not helpful... :/ |
 |
| It's very human to compare yourself, we all do it whether we know it or not. People tell me I'm smart, but I can't help compare myself to people who get better grades than me, which is what I would assume to be the same for most people. You can tell sometimes when someone compares themselves, just yesterday I made it into some honour roll thing and my buddy did not, they congratulated me and then became very silent, and the look in their eyes gave away their feelings. People also compare other people to eachother, it's a frustrating process since it leads to people comparing themselves, truly complicated. |
  Don't worry about being lame now, you were always lame anyway!  |
| Unfortunately I do. I've been trying to stop when I catch myself doing it, but it's so ingrained to compare that it's hard to not do it subconsciously. |
･ﾟ☆✧you were like a glass and I always melted in you  |
| Yeah, I do a lot as it's healthy to motivate myself. But it does fuck my self-esteem up the times when I know that others have things or features that I can never have or never be able to improve myself on to have. |

| i compare myself to who i was last year - i can actually measure this progress. i can't looking through the frosted glass of someone elses life on instagram, you don't know what everyone else has going on so whatever your 'assessment' of them is, it will likely always be unrealistic. |

| Most of the time when it comes to some certain games online. I don't really compare myself to other people in real life. |
 |
| I'm pretty sure almost everyone does it at least sometimes. It's normal. |
 |
| Of course, comparing ourselves with others is one way that we form our identity. |

| Well if it comes to art. I would say yes. |
 |
| At least a little bit, I mainly compare myself to other teenagers that are social and go out a lot, and start to feel bad for myself because I’m not social and go out often. But other than that, not too much. |
 |
| All the time. I'm a very insecure person, but I try to refrain from doing that. |
