I sometimes envy people who are superior to me. I hate comparing myself to others, but it's inevitable.

I've given up on that endeavor. Any "coping" doesn't work for me and just feels like lies.
Hopefully someone else can provide you with something more helpful :/

I get how you feel. In every situation, every group, every activity, every social setting, every competition, every project, or any other aspect of life...I'm always, and I mean always, the farthest behind, or the last one to understand it, or the one who needs the most help, or the only one who can't do it, or the last-place loser, or the one who does the shittiest job. Inferiority is basically what I breathe.

Okay, but what makes a person better than you?
Money? Education? Material shit that rots like the rest of us?
Fuck that. They've got two eyes (most of em) and a beating heart and human flesh just like you. No one on this earth is better than you and you're no better than anyone else.
I think what makes one a valuable soul is kindness and empathy, and patience. And ironically, self-love. Not ARROGANCE, but a sense of "I need to care for myself as I'd care for a loved one." You can have all the shit in the world, but for what? What'll that bring you? Greed?
Everyone is important, everyone moves at a different pace. You don't have to be the best at everything, or even anything. Your effort is enough. You're enough. You're you, and that's badass, kiddo.

I've never been able to cope with it. My whole life I compared my short comings to those around me, it's why I've always felt like a failure. It fuels my self-loathing to think about how everyone around me was always better in some way and how I was never better at anything. I don't compare myself anymore and just accept the fact that I'm the worse at everything.

The way I cope with it is distractions. It doesn't matter if I'm a complete failure when I'm playing a video game. Sadly I will probably kill myself, because of my inferiority.
I used to worry about stuff like that all the time too, but the more sick I got, the less I left the house etc the more these things didn't matter to me anymore, because my whole life is now dictated by physical pain. I now think that all of this stuff like status and achievements don't mean anything once you are sick physically, and reminded me of all the things I had taken for granted, like taking a walk, exercising, good food, just even going outside and having fresh air...once you start missing these, status doesn't matter much
I know this exact feeling. It's hard not to compare myself to others. Not just because I'm inherently defective but because there's millions of others who don't feel the need to ctb, defective or not.
