Show HN: Imposter Syndrome Life- Stories from people battling imposter syndrome

Imposter syndrome is mostly about making the valid observation that you are mediocre. Surviving this revelation without being crippled by feelings of inadequacy is an exercise in maintaining a realistic perspective about the world: understanding that the vast majority of people are also mediocre, that the vast majority of things that need to be accomplished do not require incredible genius, but rather pedestrian thoughtfulness and sustained brute-force, and so despite how small we all are measured against the best there ever was or could be, we each have a valuable purpose and role in the places we find ourselves.

Imposter syndrome is where even though qualified, people have a fear of being exposed as a "fraud".

This site is to help people overcome their anxieties by learning from others who battled imposter syndrome.
