Your honesty in sharing these feelings is truly brave. I completely understand where you're coming from. All my best friends are already working, earning, and living independently while I’m still pursuing my MSc. Seeing them support their families and succeed often makes me wonder when I’ll be able to do the same. Instead of letting these thoughts bring me down, I find inspiration in their achievements, using it as motivation to push myself further. It's okay to feel jealous—it's a natural part of being human. What's important is how we channel those feelings. Embracing and acknowledging them, just like you’re doing, is a step towards growth and self-acceptance. Keep going, and remember that it's okay to feel and grow from these emotions.
