Not bad. Some thoughts from me, in no way a rebuttal of the author's personal experiences:

1. Somatopsychic phenomenon is a thing. In other words some medical conditions have mental/emotional fallout as a side effect. Anxiety can be due to high adrenaline. Causes can include low blood sugar, allergic reaction, withdrawal.

2. Jealousy is not about what other people have. It's about what I lack.

3. Righteous anger is a force for good in this world. Anger is energy for action and depression is either exhaustion or a response of hunkering down to ride out the storm. Depending on the type of threat, sometimes hunkering down is the best practice and sometimes girding your loins for battle is the best response.
