Problem of feeling Constant Jealously with People and Fictional Characters

Hello Everyone

(I am not sure if this is the right subreddit to post this. If there’s a better subreddit to post this than please inform me, I’ll move the post there)

(I am aware that this problem is literally nothing compared to what others are going through, And i am sorry for venting about this while others are having way worse mental problems but i couldn’t help it, I had to get it out)

So as the title suggests, I am having a problem of feeling constant jealousy with people or even fictional characters that according to me are better off than me in certain things. I constantly feel to compare myself to them and feel bad that I am not like them. I constantly compare that a certain part of their life is so much better than mine, Weather it be Friendships, Intelligence, Personality, The world that they live in (Exclusive to Fictional Characters) etc.

I am aware that I should not be feeling this and try to suppress this a lot but fail most of the times. I am also aware that everyone’s lifes have problems and that you never know how bad someone’s life is just by seeing a certain aspect of their life. But my mind refuses to accept this fact no matter what, I just feel that no matter if their life is a lot worse than mine but they are better off in a certain aspect of their life than mine.

I have very limited solutions left to counter this problem, So I would appreciate anyone giving me some good advice/solutions on how to counter this flaw of mine.

Thanks
