“Those who suffer from depression are most likely to shine the worst possible light on themselves when making comparisons and are therefore also more susceptible to envy. Envy is ultimately isolating. Envy impairs your ability to maintain close relationships which happen to be the best refuge from a status obsessed society. Envy pushes us away from what is most precious and that is love. Those who are lonely, who lack close personal relationships, are most susceptible to status anxiety.” (from Psychology Today)
