I honestly need desperate help on how to manage being envy about my friend


I know my envy feelings are coming from my place of my insecurities and I feel threatened by the existence of my friend bc she has everything I desire, and that makes me angry


my problem is that these feelings wont stop, and I don't know how to control them. They been so constant that I had to ask my friend for some time without communication in order to solve this problem.


Does anyone have some advice???

Hi, BlueGxrl3! I can totally relate to how your feeling. I also feel the same way before with my bestfriend. True enough the feeling of jealousy became constant and won't go away because I want it to.. but I want you to know this feeling is temporary and it will all go away eventually. I think the root of jealously is the absence of self-love. I think you have to start loving yourself more, to be 100% comfortable with your own skin and contented with who you are. The moment you do that. You start freeing yourself from that toxic emotion. Also, you can try to talk to your friend about how your feeling. I think it helps.
