Yes I know what you are going through. I have a college education but since college I have experienced some severe mental health problems. Like you, I get annoyed and jealous of other people.
You did not mention this but I get very pissed off when I feel slighted or viewed as inferior, especially when a person who I view as a "bad person" has it all.
I have a job, insurance, etc. like yourself but I am not functional. Even though I try, I have lost almost every job I have had and get *****ed at by my supervisor in form of getting cussed out.
I can't meet women as I am pathetic loser in my 30s. I go to the supermarket and I swear that I mind my own business but still get *****ed at or some sort of conflict ensues.
Working, maintaining relationships with friends/family, and having a romantic relationship/a family are things that I cannot obtain at this time and these are things that my asshole supervisors/colleagues who cheat, lie, make up results which are not plausible, etc. can always do. Basically, I struggle with the fundamentals of life.
I fail at everything I do despite trying. I do not aim that high however I need to start over again. I have made progress in certain aspects of life but not enough as I continue to struggle.
I am trying this strategy of eliminating negative influences such as toxic people, environments, habits, etc. I hope this works.
I feel we (me and you) both need to knock one of these people who have at all down in a metaphorical sense and assert ourselves. What do you think?

Then on my depressed days-I am jealous if siblings, coworkers, friends, even strangers who seem to have it all, seem happy and don't seem to struggle. If course my rational side knows I have no idea what goes on behind closed doors but my negative voice says...why can't my lufe be a little more together..why out of my whole family-am I the bipolar one, the one with weight issues, less pretty, etc
I get out mt journal and do the pos/neg columns to show how good I do have it...but do any of you ever wondet why you/we have these issues...then I again say, ok universe, its not cancer or aids so I should be grateful I am functional
Anyone else ever get this way....
