Ngl, for every single person I've come across, I have at one point or the other felt intimidated and looked at them from the very narrow practical perspective of their lives with which I had seen them from. By this statement, I mean every single person I have met😂 so if you're reading this and you know Ify in person, yes, I have at one point 'eyed' you.  The comparison trap could come in comparing yourself with different things belonging to the people around you. It could come in form of wealth, beauty, talent, accomplishment, intellect, success, e.t.c. I'll be using myself as a major case study in this article because I am a person so guilty of this 😭😂 or should i say entangled in this trap.

To me, it seems like many of these youngsters are simply feeling down rather than clinically depressed. "They're just upset because they're not getting what they want," I'd say.  As time goes by on my little corner here, I might share some anecdotes about some people in my life. Now, why do I find it amusing when teenagers talk about depression ? Well, in my humble opinion, if the source of your unhappiness isn't family-related, then labeling yourself as 'depressed' might be a bit of a stretch. I'll touch on this topic lightly, staying mostly on the surface. Alright, let me share a personal story.
