 | I guess I just don't see myself as being the cool guy at the office. Like Jim is way better than me. He's so nice and funny, and I'm just not. | |
|
| Why aren't you nice and funny? | |

| I guess I just don't think I'm good enough. I can't compare. He's got the looks, the car, the house, his life seems perfect. I'm just me. I'm not good enough compared to him. I'll never be like Jim. It makes me so depressed. | |
|
| You're right though, you never will be like Jim, because you're Stan. Just because you don't have the same material things as him, or some of the same attributes doesn't make you any less of a person. Your depression is stemming from you comparing yourself to someone else. But you're not him are you? What makes you different and special? | |

|
| Yeah! You're right. I'm not like Jim. I have different qualities that are beneficial and special, too. I shouldn't always be comparing myself to someone and I have become a better peson this past year. | |
|
| Your depression is stemming from your train of thought-- the negative things you keep telling yourself. Stan, you are a child of God and that's where you should find your identity. God has made you uniquely and special. You are just as important as Jim, in your own way. Speak life into yourself. | |
