Mental Health Topic / Recognizing Envy

Thanks for checking out the post. I appreciate all constructive or negative criticism. Hope you get something out of my mortal mind.

Short and sweet, I've been so<b> jealous </font></b>of other people and where has it gotten me? No where. The promotions at work, the birth of a new baby, winning on a scratch , a new car, etc. All of these things my instinct is this, jump to being envious and wish it happened to me. Why am I not happy for this person? I am someone who says the "I'm so happy for you!" or "Congratulations!", but I don't mean it. It's , pretend, a way to be polite but mask how I'm truly feeling.

How to shake this? It's so much easier to be this way over really being happy for someone else. But it's like a disease that spreads, and it breaches further than inside me. It rubs off on other people, and they know it, or so I think. It might just be as easy as flipping a switch inside from envy to genuine joy.

Working on it.
