@ocdbrian: Your manager loved your work. You spent the evening hunting for what she missed. You did well. Really well. And somehow that made it worse. Because now there's a bigger project. A bigger chance to get caught. That's imposter syndrome. When you succeed, you don't count it as yours. It was luck. It was timing. It was you working twice as hard to cover for not being good enough. So the next task always feels like the one that finally shows everyone. And every win just starts the loop again. (If you were really fooling everyone, you'd be the hardest-working fraud in history. Who keeps turning in good work. Which is, technically, just doing the job.) This isn't being humble. It isn't fake modesty, or fishing for compliments. Plenty of capable people feel it, especially right after a step up. Feeling like a fraud doesn't make you one. PS: imposter syndrome isn't OCD. But if you also get doubts that won't let go, or checking that never feels finished, Choiceful is the treatment app I'd send a friend to for OCD. You get a 100% personalized treatment course built around what you're actually dealing with, therapy chat 24/7, and users seeing clinically significant improvement in their OCD symptoms. You're still a good human. #MentalHealth #mentalillness #psychology #ocd #obsessivecompulsivedisorder #anxiety
