I’m going to try to write about it more, but lately I’ve been super down on myself. I’ve been working really hard (60 hour weeks, weekend work, the whole deal) and still feel like I’m never doing enough.
From a practical standpoint, I know I’m doing all that can be expected of me, but it’s really impacting my confidence and spilling into other aspects of my life. I’ve withdrawn from & avoided a lot of my (virtual) social interaction lately; I’ve even been hiding from my roommates.
Which prompts my question—
When you’re going through a serious crisis of confidence, and insecurity impacts everything you do (or don’t do!), what do you do to build yourself back up?
My impostor syndrome has kicked in bigtime and even when I get external praise, I convince myself it’s a fluke and I don’t deserve it. What is my approach to giving myself more credit?
