We don't really know what's happening in others lives plus where does it end?like right now I have a cold, I could envy those who don't. Or I have stomach ache and gonna envy those who don't. It could go and on. There is always somebody who has more than we have

I've never said I was proud of my feelings of envy and jealousy. I'm just trying to accept these feelings and not repress them. that's how I feel. I can't help it.
I've discussed these feelings in therapy.
