Maybe all along, it's society that's the problem, not everyone who doesn't fit into it.

Other's people's success has never pissed me off except when I was younger and it was always about girls then and my ability to snare a girlfriend. Maybe try and flip the situation on it's head and be happy for other's success's. The compare game will only lead to despair as when you are depressed your confirmation bias will always pick you as the loser..

well that's because you are a better person that me. not sure how pretending to be happy for others will change anything.

hard to see the point in not playing the compare game, because, even if you do it, other people are going to do it for you anyway.

Why? Your art should be unique. Like your fingerprint. How else would you separate yourself from everyone else?

even if it's unique, nobody cares

look at how other people's masterpieces get 10X more attention than my little doodles and then get back to me about how people give a damn about whether or not it's unique.

they don't.

this is how things are and i'm the only person who sees it?

Well you certainly place a lot of value on the opinions of others.

Perhaps you should start by believing in yourself. Give yourself some credit.

Pro Tip: If you want to commit a burglary, do it during a windstorm. Local police radio reports alarms going off all over town and officers can't keep up with them.
