I have a constant impression that everyone around me is more competent than me at everything. Does it actually mean that I am, or is there some sort of strong psychological effect that can create that impression, even if it is not actually true? If there is, is it a problem you should see your therapist about?
Look up the imposter syndrome. And try not to automatically say; "I don't have it because I never did anything of noteworthyness"
---Oh dang; someone else got to it first.
How did you go with your opinions of imposter syndrome now?
