Too good for everyone or everyone is too good for me?
79% Normal
8 Comments

My head seesaws between feeling better than everyone else and everyone else being better than me.

Sometimes I think I am better because no one else in my area has a lot of similar interests/sense of humour/ect. to me and I believe everyone else is pretty boring/narcist/oblivious/not at all interested in me/ect. (save some of my pals)

Other times I think I'm not good enough for everyone else and I may just be the odd one out. I'm only slightly social with those who are my buds, but sometimes I think it's because it's me, not them.

Please help me with this before I pull my head off!
Do you think it's normal?

You worry too much about other people. My brother is just like that. It must be frusterating. Really there's nobody better than anyone. It's all personal opinion. Just because nobody has any interests in your area dosen't mean that you're better than them. You should just chill out instead of pulling your head off.Go with the flow sometimes and you'll feel much better. Good luck!

here is the answer there is no such thing as just "better"

first of all you have to tell us what you think your "better" at, because right now you are saying your just better at being a person

well that's impossible because there are no levels of people yet, if there were hybrids like a half human half bear then yes you would be better at being a person than the half human half bear hybrid

now be more specific do you think your better at skateboarding, basketball, rock collecting, fashion design, etc.

Just be yourself. I'm like this too sometimes. When I feel confident, I feel like other people look at me as if I'm being too confident and in turn I feel like I'm being shot down so that they are above me. It's ridiculous. Just be yourself though, that's what I keep getting told, who cares, as long as it's real, it shouldnt matter.

He just thinks hes "better" all around. But when he gets around other people he feels like the odd one out. Its a feeling its not an objective thing like "I think Im better at skateboarding"
