Seems these are your limiting thoughts:
- I'm invisible
- I'm a nuisance
- I don't belong
These thoughts are coloring the way you see/interact with the world.
What can you do to change these limiting thoughts?I always recommend EFT, BSFF, TAT and NLP - these methods have given me significant joy and peace in my life.

3) How do you separate what you see happening all around you from your own life? I observe a lot of people who are dishonest in their relationships -- lots of "cheating" -- and it's sometimes a struggle not to compare and wonder if maybe I've had the wool pulled over my eyes as well. Not sure if that makes sense. I'm not really scared of being in the same position because I know that whatever happens I'm safe and that I can learn and grow in all situations, but always feel compelled to compare and it's becoming a problem.

Is it YOU (the eternal you) doing the comparing - or some aspect of you (ego, scared inner child, etc.) doing the comparing?
Did you know that a peanut-sized part of your brain basically creates all the drama in our lives? Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor calls it the "Storyteller." I think many people would call it the "Ego." Yup - the ego - with it's need to compare and contrast, to fixate on the past, to create stories...it's just a tiny part of your anatomy AND spirit.
And yet we all confuse this tiny thing as being the total or main part of us.
Personally, my life improved a lot once I realized that 99.999% of me is totally chillin'. This peanut in my brain - that's not me. It's just a tiny part of me.
And it's just a tiny part of you. As Eckhart Tolle says - smile at it.
