For absolutely everyone on this forum, there is someone prettier and someone richer. There is someone in better shape. There is someone with a nicer car, a nicer home. There is someone with a better diet, someone who takes nicer vacations. There is someone smarter and someone with a better social repartee.

And you know what? None of that is any barrier to your own happiness. It is the human condition.

Comparing yourself to others to confirm your sense of being "lesser" or of being "better" is a habit worth leaving behind. Recognize it when you do it. See if you can refrain from following that train of thought as soon as you recognize it.

Establishing a habit of going to the gym sounds like an awesome idea. A good thing to do after work in winter. It will help destress you, get you out of the house, and help you meet some people in a non-work non-bar setting. It could well lift your mood.

It takes a few months to develop a new positive habit, so you might have to figure out a workout routine that you actually find enjoyable. It is a lot easier to do something because you like to do it rather than doing something because you ought to do it.
