I can relate. My sister the kind of smart that translates to better grades than me. She got married, he had kids and she works and seems to function heaps better than me.I was even talking to my P'doc this week about how well she is doing considering recent events. I have an A+ in comparing myself to others.

I can't even hold down a job to save my life. We are not doing ourselves any favours by comparing ourselves to others though it is such an in trenched habit in my life.

Have you asked your parents how they view you? None of us are mind readers. You might be surprised what they think. Either way it's more important what you think of yourself.
