You're comparing yourself to people who aren't even running the same race as you.
Different starting point. Different circumstances. Different history. Different wounds. Different healing timeline. And somehow you've convinced yourself that because they look further along, you must be behind.
You're not behind. You're just not where you thought you'd be. And those are two very different things.
Look at where you were a year ago. The things that used to destroy your whole week barely get a reaction now. The boundaries you couldn't say out loud are becoming second nature. The patterns you didn't even recognize back then, you catch them in real time now.
That's growth. It's quiet. It doesn't post itself on Instagram. But it's real. And it counts.
The only person you need to be ahead of is who you were yesterday.
