Impostor syndrome affects a variety of individuals. If you suffer from it, you have an ongoing sense that you are not good enough, leading you to see yourself as a fraud. You become anxious about being discovered as a fraud when you are not in fact a fraud! Even with achievements, skills, and proficiency, self-distrust can arise, causing individuals to question their capabilities and attribute their achievements to mere chance, timing, or external influences. Over time they can completely lose faith in their ability to do their jobs.
