Hi, I'm not sure if this is the place for this topic, but I really feel I need to discuss it. I'm VERY paranoyed that people are better at me at something, like writing, art, and singing. I get so angry and envyess. I'm paranoyed people will copy off of me and make it better than I did in the first place. I hate this feeling, but it will not go away. I also hate it when people have it worse than me, yet are so much nicer and sweeter. I dont know how to exactly say it. But people have been telling me I cant draw realistic and I stink at singing. Example: One day in 7th grade "Madison, no offence, but my little sister can drawl more realistic than you" and I started crying, because I thought art was all I had, and someone said "she's just upset that she's not the best" I dont WANT to be the best but I desperatly want to prove I can do it. And I tried drawling realistic for weeks. Also, another example: me and another girl ended up doing a duet in a concert after we auditioned (I onlt auditioned so a friend would have the courage to do it) and when it was concert time, the mic wasnt on, but we sang, I sang louder than her because I wasnt sure how to level my voice, and I admit I was pretty good, shes's good too. But on Monday, the teacher said good job to both of us, but she treated the other girl like she was the star and she admitted she heard her better. I was upset because people kept saying "No offence Madison, but we heard Shelby better, and she's a much better singer" -and after being told that a trillion times it gets to you. My mom and her friends said they heard me clearly over Shelby. Nobody else believes so though. Nobody seems to like me, and I worry its because I might be a horrible person, yet I try to be good and I care about others feelings enough to not talk all day (to avoid saying a mean thing) How do I overcome these feelings?
