Maybe you are at a point in your life where you feel better than others because you are doing things to take care of yourself, therefore, you have a higher level of self care and self love going on than those around you. Sometimes, the more we take care of ourselves, the more positive we feel about ourselves and our lives. This can really be beneficial as we are growing and maturing, because its important to take time for yourself to do things that nurture your soul. Think about what you like to do- do you do these things on a daily basis? How are you dealing with conflict? Do you have a strong support system and a good network that you feel is there for you? All of these things combined may be adding to why you are feeling better than those you are around.

When a person feels like they are better than others, it is often because they have a deep-seated sense of security. They may adopt an identity that places them above how they truly feel about them self. What they need is to try to get to the point where they accept themselves as they, where they see themselves as human and see themselves on par with others. In a number of cases, the person truly is better than others around them, at least in a few select areas or a few superficial character traits. However, in terms of deep character and sense of worth, nobody is really better than another.
When one feels like they are better than others, change starts with truly accepting ourselves as we are and then opening our hearts up to others and seeing their value and worth as well. Helping those we see as less fortunate and truly trying to connect with them will help aid in having a more reasonable view of ourselves.

I feel that how we feel in situations is left on external parameters by most of us while it’s completely a function of our internal being and definitions. It took me a while that rationalising our expectations can the world the most beautiful place for us. I am on the my journey and would helping others in doing so is now my Ikigai.
I am not aspirant of being better than others at all since it can destabilise my sense of being blissful.
In fact if I assume being better than others in anyway then there is a thick chance of missing out on learning something that can further enlighten me.

to feel better than everyone isn't easy or something you can think about today and achieve tomorrow, but you need to take it easy and take your time achieving your goal which is feeling better than every one I think It'll happen if you think and control your emotions better than everyone else, because when you do these you'll know exactly what to do and when to do it, you won't make a lot of mistakes and if you did make any you'll know how to learn from it so you won't do it again, it worked with me.

It is possible that you are biased living in your own mind, we don't have the same opportunity to 'inhabit' other people as we do ourselves, so you may be comparing yourself invalidly. Perhaps if you got to know someone on a deeper level you would not feel as though you were better than them. Also, it is difficult to really know everyone else, the world is a big place, the current world population is 7.8 billion! Maybe meeting people you haven't before could expand your views or your perception of what "better" is. It can be unhealthy to compare people, since we are all different, we each shine in different ways :)

That is a bit of a complex question, really. It could be that you feel superior to the depiction of yourself in the mass media (girls, for example, are often seen as shallow or vindictive, making many girls feel better than other girls, because they have complex lives that aren't depicted on screens etc. The same applies to most minorities.)
It might be that you have a really cool skill, or you are doing well academically, and you therefore feel above other people.
It might be that you are going through a time in your life where you are confused about your place in this big world, and so you have landed on this temporarily. If you want to discuss this further with me, I am available at @Ciara2507

Self-confidence, awareness, and healthy coping skills maybe. It’s a good thing to feel content, hard to see others around us feeling less than that, but ultimately you should be your main focus. Don’t let the mood of people around you alter yours, embrace it and use it. Stay positive and strong, and hopefully in time, even if it only reaches one person, your mood and demeanor will help others to see the brighter side of life and help them to feel better. Be an inspiration to those around you, showing your strength and resilience. Let them into your life, and be a positive force in theirs.

In my opinion, there's nothing wrong in feeling that you're better than everyone else. I believe knowing your own worth is important. Be proud of who you are and feel comfortable in your skin. It's something the world needs more.
However there is one thing to remember more. When you know you are better than everyone else, do not belittle those who are doing not so good as you. That would be the wrong thing to do.
Instead help them. Empower them. You rise by lifting others. So when you know you have the strength to lift someone up, do it😊
