I find that one of the worst ways to exacerbate any of these feelings is to compare yourself to others. Self worth is hard to come by. There is no reason to squander it envying the best qualities in others. It is always good to remember that the guy whose body or car you wish you had likely has some issues you wouldn't want. Take for example a gorgeous woman who is so utterly caught up in looks that she is neurotic and drives people away with her needy quest for attention. She may look good, but she is suffering too. So, in that vein, I hope that each of you can see the good qualities about yourselves and realize that you are the sum of your parts. People who are worth it will see the important parts.
Got pretty sick this weekend and the hospital doc had to put me on a round of pills. Pills invariably make me sicker before they make me better. I have anxiety about taking medication because medication is the reason I first experienced anxiety. At any rate, it made me think of this thread and that I hadn't added any Shellfucius words of wisdom in a few days.
