Imposter syndrome

I think, as of late, it’s hit me that this may be one of my biggest struggles/issues at the present time especially but has been running rampant on my life for years and I didn’t realize or associate it correctly!

Imposter syndrome: Imposter syndrome is loosely defined as doubting your abilities and feeling like a fraud. It disproportionately affects high-achieving people, who find it difficult to accept their accomplishments. Many question whether they're deserving of accolades.

Im an artist and feel this all the time I feel like I’m not good enough at times and wish I was as good as other artists but I have to remember I’m unique and so is my art and I should compare to others. You are your own person and you do things in your own way we all have different routes to get where we want to be

Is this when you have multiple different accents you use! If so I’ve got this problem

I feel like I’ve lied my way to the top because I’ve accomplished most things with a mask. So i feel like i don’t deserve my positions at work or respect because I am just a manipulative lying person. I’m not. I did all those things. I rebuilt countless restaurants and work in the top of hospitality rehabilitation. I did not just manipulate wing it and lie to get there. But it still feels that way all the time

Yes! Even with stuff I’ve accomplished, my brain still tells me its a lie and it wasn’t really me who accomplished it. It was me, it was no one else. The feeling of guilt and shame is still there
