I agree. It's just compounded by social media. It could be that I'm affected by this more than other people, but I've spoke with friends and family with similar experiences. Luckily I'm mature enough now to recognize this.
I also want to be clear that most of the negative thoughts I have aren't due to people being "too good" or "not good enough". It's due to the things people share. I see lots of anger in my facebook feed, usually related to politics, but not always. It's just a very dramatic place.
I don't want to think of what my early teenage years would've been like had social media been more accessible. Don't get me wrong, I would've loved to have access to MySpace from anywhere, but I don't think it would've been healthy and I certainly wasn't mature enough for it.
