> as a fellow 25 year old woman who is jealous, i can sympathize with your obsession. i have the exact same thing as you were describing. i am also engaged and am getting married in june. i have always been told that SSRI's tighten up your sence of self and give you a thicker skin. this may help with your jealousy. it will probably not remove it all together but it may remove some of the anxiety going along with the jealousy. it may be that you are anxious and not jealous - have you ever thought of that? sometimes anxiety masks itself as other things. chew on that!!!!! my anxiety causes all kinds of screwed up things. maybe in the meantime try to tell yourself why you should not be jealous, it has been proven (i was a psychology major) that talking youself out of stuff really works! i am sorry you are struggling but i think medicine is a great idea. do you have a psychiatrist? let me know who it goes okay.
