Depends what / who you are resenting! Do you want to offer a bit more info?

You recognised that crap times are all part of life and there will be a time when you're not having a crap time and that other people might resent you for that.

If you feel resentment you might want to look at your boundaries. Have you been doing too much for other people? Giving more than you want to give? Overextending yourself when you don't have the capacity? Or do you need more of something for yourself? More free time, more adventures, more fun? Having curiosity about why you have that feeling, and understanding the nuance of it can help ease the emotional discomfort.

I don’t think resentment is healthy it puts you in a terrible toxic mindset, and sometimes it also stops you from taking some responsibility for where you are at.

hard to give advice on such little content, maybe self reflect and see how it sits. Sometimes you just need to let things breathe and also just accept that life can suck … and that’s okay… it passes.
