obsessive envy

Envidia obsesiva, or obsessive envy, refers to a persistent and intense feeling of jealousy towards others, often accompanied by a desire to possess what they have or to undermine their success. Unlike ordinary envy, which is a common human emotion, obsessive envy tends to consume the individual, affecting their mental health and relationships. It may lead to destructive behaviors and thoughts, creating a cycle of negativity that can be difficult to break. This form of envy can stem from personal insecurities and societal pressures, making it an important topic for emotional and psychological exploration.
