Why do people think my life is perfect?

Question

I struggle with a great deal of challenges with health, family and life in general. One person said that I led a charmed life. Another person said something was not for people like me who have everything. What is up with people and why are they so critical of me.

I have bipolar disorder and am on disability. My life is far from perfect. The people who are commenting about me also have mental illnesses.

Answer 1

They are trying to make you happier.

Because you are bipolar.

Answer 3

Holy c**p, I have the same problem. People keep saying I have "everything", but they think "everything" is just looks, money, and sports skills. I mean, just tell them there's more to life than what you have. It's gotten to the point where some people are actually starting to get annoyed at me out of jealousy.

And can I ask you something about the topic, sort of personal-ish? Just IM me, bleaghzzz@yahoo

Answer 4

Most people think your life is good based on your appearance. If you dress nicely or care yourself well people think you have a good life. I have tons of annoyances in my life and i used to cut myself. My friends all said "Well you have nice clothes and your always silly so why did you do it?" The point is people say that because they don't live in your shoes they don't experience what you and i have so they think their S****y life is worse than yours.  

Answer 5

A lot of people think others have a charmed life because they don't know what is going on in a person's personal life.  Most people don't like to show off the bad parts of their life because everyone has those parts.  Life is too short to dwell on the bad stuff.  

They are jealous of what they don't know.  Maybe you should get together with them and talk about your problems and theirs, maybe you will find a friend.   There is an old saying that misery loves company.
