    Fuck goddammit this is the worst thing for people with imposter syndrome to see. This is fucking insidious. Hilarious but insidious.

      I would be so devastated if I told a coworker that I had imposter syndrome and they were like, “wait, you think that we think you’re good at your job?”

        My boss told me himself that I probably have impostor syndrome. Ever since then, I lose sleep wondering how much he regrets saying that. By now, he surely realises that I actually am an impostor, but our labour laws are too good and he can’t fire me.

    I certainly am not. Is there a term for someone who has impostor syndrome but deep inside is actually not good enough? lmao

      An impostor, lol

      It’s where the term for the syndrome comes from.
