Sometimes, I look at everyone else around me and wonder, maybe i am the one lacking behind in eveything be it academics, social roles, skills basically anything and everything that i can compare myself with another person. I often think maybe becuz i didnt do "x" or "y" am lacking and they are doin the x and y easily. Ik for a fact that everybody has their inner battles and struggles but stil they can outshine in everyway possible without anything stopping them. I feel like i cant do anything even when am so careful, alert, serious cuz somehow it fails unlike everybody and this stresses me out so much. They are of same age, background and situation as me but this constant failure of atleast doin smtg decently decreses my confidence and i end up questioning what even am i doin and loose trust with myself easily. This has been my whole school story, someone does smtg, i look at them and geniuenly wish the best but still feel bitter tht i didnt do anything. the worse is seeing ur parents with so much expectations on u and u r silently failing them too...This is even worse in uni cuz everybody is doin smtg useful and i sit in the class like a wood log. One day i took one responsibility role that i am still proud of but there too....constant judgement on how u handle and speak...because of this thing...am really loosing confidence and i am starting to question my worth as an individual. ik this is bad to me but idk how else to tackle it....sometimes i gradually make up my mind, boost myself, feel confident and then it deflates the moment someone questions...guess somethings wont leave u fully

Remember, you are enough. You don't have to be better than anyone, what matters is that you wakeup everydayand become a better version of yourself than yesterday. Your parents would be proud having a child carrying a storm inside, yet trying your best to shine. Everybody have their own pros and cons, you'll find your strength soon. Love yourself, and all the good stuff are waiting alongside life for you. Bless you, Stay Happy!
