My guesses
Common reasons:
Feel pressure to be smarter and more successful. Could be internal or external.
Less common reasons:
Poisoned by ambition.
Trouble finding people smart enough that they could talk to and/or have a real relationship with (could refer to friend or romantic).
Frustration with other people’s stupidity.
Other possibilities:
Stress that comes with overfocus on self-improvement + more awareness and frustration with flaws.
Troubled by the suffering and unfairness in the world.
Troubled by unanswered questions they have.
If I’m sad, this is probably why.
It’s a big thing for me too.
