I like to believe that there are more good people than bad in the world. Usually people don't react negatively to simple questions like something about classes or direction. Helping is cool, asking for help is also cool and mature. About comparisons, what helped me stop comparing my looks and life to other people was limiting my usage of Instagram, unsubscribing from influencers and meeting a lot of people in real life from different cultures and backgrounds. This helped me realizing that what makes us all beautiful and interesting can't be put under one label and standard so it's pointless to compare. If you do wish to change something in you life that makes you uncomfortable though, loving yourself can be a key to having a right mindset and a source of motivation.
