Imposter syndrome ED

Imposter syndrome ED

Are you filled with a lot of anxiety about your abilities? Do you feel like you have imposter syndrome? Are you terribly afraid people will find out the truth about you? Are you constantly plagued by feelings of insecurity, doubt and low self-worth? Does your imposter syndrome create procrastination in you? Do sometimes these feelings become so overwhelming it prevents you from doing your work or engaging with people?

Imposter syndrome is a phrase designed to capture feelings of somebody doing things that they are not qualified to do. Imposter syndrome often has roots in emotionally neglectful childhood. People who are plagued with feelings of doubts about their abilities, their skills, often came from a family in which they were, in some shape or form, required to behave older and more competent than their years. In their family they were, as a child, required to emotionally support a parent who was probably suffering from some sort of mental health challenges.

As a child, they were often forced to act or do things that were beyond age appropriateness. As a result, they were being an imposter, they were faking it, they were pretending to be something they were not and then this feeling gets integrated into your identity.

As an adult, you are constantly being plagued by these feelings of imposter or fraudulent abilities. You are constantly afraid somebody will find out. Usually, people like this are highly educated, have lots of skills, are successful in their career, however, they cannot escape from this feeling that drives them and overwhelms them.
