Jelousy is the result of denying yourself something. If, instead of being jealous, you think, ';That is for me too.'; it works wonders.I have a really big problem with jealousy. How can I control it?
I think jealousy is just one of our many emotions that get triggered by certain situations. We may be the most secure, ';ok'; person you can imagine but somewhere deep inside us there is something that we crave, may be in our subconscious and we may not even be aware of it. Then boom.. there it is in front of us and its not ours... jealousy of the person who has it...being a thing or a state of being... they have it, we get jealous.. simple I guess. Lainey
well ithink alot of people do have this problem!! i try to deal with it by realizing what you have and being happy about it!! i know how hard i work for what i have, and because of that i appreciate it more. no matter how great someones life seems there is always some problems in it and although they may have something you want i am sure you too have something they want! good luck bud i know how hard it is to control
i have the same problem, just know who you are and try to be confindent, that is the only thing that has worked for me

hmmm don't we all


ask yourself why you get jealous; are you unhappy with your own life


trying to paste it over with happiness isn't going to work; you have to get to the root of the weed to kill it otherwise it'll come back.
There is always someone to be jealous of,it forces you to strive.
I have problems with jealousy to when I'm in a relationship but that's because one of my Ex's lied to me constantly and cheated on me, so i have trust issues. The best thing i can suggest for you is trying to answer the fallowing question. Has the person given you any reason not to trust them, and is their any foundation for your jealousy. If your being jealous for no good reason maybe your just feeling insecure, we all have that problem sometimes. Find some one that you can talk to so you can try to find out what the basis is for your feelings of jealousy, or mistrust. Good luck.
Jealousy is a symptom of low self esteem. You don't feel good enough and are always looking around at other people thinking they're better than you. Untill you realise and accept that you're always going to find people who are both better and worse at different things, you'll always be jealous. My advice is to you is that when you get jealous, list the good points you have and the bad points the other person has.
Jealousy usually comes from you being unsure of your own ability and thinking that someone else is better than you are. The sad fact is there will always be someone better than you in everything in life, and that ok because you can guarantee that you are better than him or her in something else. Life isn't a race and we鈥檙e not here to compare ourselves to one another. The best part of life is that we can learn from those better than we are at something. Further, if they are willing to learn, they will learn from you as well. Cheer up. We all are doing our best, and if your best isn't as good as someone else鈥檚... that鈥檚 just fine. You never know if they're actually looking at you the same way.
