Is it normal to want to hurt those who are happy?

I have had this issue ever since I was a little girl, where I've had a disturbing urge to hurt those who are happy. When at school, I watch all these other kids laugh together or get treated nicely by the teachers and it makes me want to injure them. I can't stand being around couples because their overgrowing love sickens me, and I have an urge to degrade them when I see them. I still treat everyone nicely even if it means forcing a smile on my face. Not sure if this is important, but I left my best friend at my old school to go to a new school so that I may focus on my studies and get an accelerated teaching. I've also noticed, throughout my life I've been really obsessed with the idea of success. To an extreme point where I would use others to get to it. Thank you for your help.

    Sounds like jealousy, although I know a lot of people who like to ruin others happiness. I think that's just life's motto "You look happy today, let me see what I can do about that," then you come in. However, it sounds like your drive for success is what's causing you such sadness. Because you're unhappy then you feel like you to make others as miserable as you. When was the last time that you've actually hung out with friends or did something for yourself? I want to be successful as well, that's why I take as much AP classes as I can, but I still want to enjoy myself. You should to. Don't rain on someone's happy parade. Instead make your own. I understand that people can sometimes be overwhelming, especially when they're practically rubbing their happiness in your face, but you just have to let them be. Trust me though, you're normal.
