The Role of Therapy in Self-Comparison
Social media has made it easy for individuals to compare themselves with others, often leading to feelings of inadequacy and frustration. Therapy offers a valuable resource to help individuals focus on their own aspirations rather than the curated lives of others they see online. By engaging in therapy, people can identify what truly matters to them, setting the stage for personal growth and fulfillment. Ultimately, prioritizing one's own goals over societal pressures can lead to a more rewarding and authentic life experience.
