    I get this. I think about how relatively great my life is compared to humanity across the planet and it just depresses me so much further.

    Sorry to hear that the people in your life are assholes :(

    Probably not very helpful, but tons of people are also just happy for no reason, so at least the world isnt all grim and gloom.

    For a few people, this kind of thinking helps. It does for me, actually. When I feel like my life sucks it can help to compare myself to an imaginary Anglo-Saxon peasant woman during the invasion of the Sons of Lodbrok, and it actually helps to realize just how much better I have it than her.

    But that doesn’t work for everyone, and even those it works for kinda need to do the comparison themselves, not have it pushed on them.

      It can also make a person feel worse by making them feel like they’re a bad person for daring to have depression when there are others who have worse lives.

        For me, I feel depressed thinking about how bad things are for so many people, and knowing there’s nothing I can do to help. At least not in any significant way

      I compare myself to a farmer peasant, and think about how I have more cool tech I can’t afford but in exchange peeling skin and bloody poop and honestly probably no area of better health.

    “I’m broke but managing to make it work because there are other people who can’t pay their bills more.”

    Same ridiculous idea.
