Why do we can compare ourselves to others? Is it healthy? Can we ever stop doing it?
These are questions that come up again and again in therapy, recovery and psychology.
Will Storr’s brilliant new book, The Status Game, examines these questions in depth and concludes that humans are irrevocably competitive - but that it’s not always a bad thing.
I was delighted to chat to Will about comparison culture and the impact it can have on our mental health.
