i've been lurking on your journal after enjoying Melusine very much, but this comment brought me out of the woodwork. I'm convinced that imposter syndrome is one the most hideous emotional experiences that exists, especially since--by its very nature--all attempts to disprove it rationally are doomed to failure. In fact, for me they actually fuel the feedback loop--the more people try to convince me I'm wrong to feel the way I do by pointing to accomplishments, the more the panic grows that I'm about to be exposed not just as a fraud but a really, really BIG fraud.
It make me want to take a nap.
Anyway, that's a long way of saying I appreciate that you shared it, as it's always somehow reaffirming to know other people experience it too.
