The competition is so high that sometimes we lose ourselves in that process.
Earning money and being successful is important in life. But never forget who you are and the people around you. Money is not everything. It is important to survive but make sure to take some time to bond with people around you. It will also help reduce the anxiety or stress that you are having because of all that work.
If you said competition is so high, it means everyone are trying hard to improve their knowledge and skill, so everyone only care about study or anything that will improve their ability. It's wrong if you need to look people around you because they're not looking to you or people around them, why need to take care or treat them when they didn't even care with you? I can say like this because it happened to myself.
To reduce anxiety or stress, you can do other thing with your money without need to hangout with your friends e.g. eat delicious food, staycation, going to bar, playing games etc.
