I really want to know which neurons are responsible for expectation that when I check my email, my inbox is somehow going to be full of emails telling me that I am bad at my job and people hate me. It's especially bad coming back to check work email after being gone for a couple of weeks.

Sometimes I just feel so incompetent. Like I'm just pretending amongst all these scientists that know what they're doing

The fact that my possible/probable retirement is 21 months away is meaningless to the mind worms that like to eat my feelings of self-worth. Me, left to myself, is not a good thing. What will my internal supports be if I am not solving problems for my coworkers? What will my identity be?

Guten Tag, ich bin Ihr Imposter-Syndrom und komme zur regelmäßigen Inspektion Ihrer Selbstzweifel vorbei. Was schreiben wir denn gerade?

Today is the second day that I felt too bad to shave. Tomorrow isn't looking good either. And the sore throat and coughing has my voice sounding gruff and very masculine.

Can I please get over this soon?

And now that I look at this, I realize a) this is the living emobidyment of having multiple organizational systems to keep on track when you're AuDHD and b) having a googly-eyed binder gives me enough dopamine to WANT to use the binder.

No more for me about my neurodivergence, I think. Yep, I've got the 'tism (as my spouse and I lovingly call it to one another)

Didn’t start the day with crippling stress and anxiety or a great desire to call into work so I’m cautiously optimistic.

Just did a "s/associate//" on my personal website...

Feels weird being a [full] teaching professor now.

Well not that weird (job hasn't really changed)... just having that title is unexpected.

When I took the job at 9 years ago, I was certain I was gonna be fired or let go during my initial 3 year contract.

I've been fortunate to have a supportive family, understanding friends, and great students.

Hopefully I can make it another 9 years!

The reason i opened this account was to escape the . I was at a point where i felt like:
- Nothing is good enough
- There are always people way smarter
- I cannot compete
- My opinion is nothing worth and propably wrong

Escape the . You are always good enough.

I always have to google to find what this kind of email means. The first semester I got an email about the dean’s list; I didn’t know what it meant. Honestly, I sometimes feel there might be an error in their data or something. :/

That's the topic for this Writers in the Storm post that should be required reading, especially for anyone who's ever suffered from Imposter Syndrome.

Yeah, that's pretty much most writers.

Rough draft of the first page of the comic I’m working on. It’s a story about how I learned to code in college and my struggle with imposter syndrome.

I’m planning on printing some copies as a zine. Also considering turning it into a web comic. But first, I have to finish it!

It can feel like a great risk disclosing that you have to coworkers because of all the negative connotations, but I’m considering starting a support group for individuals in my company

I think we have a lot to offer, even if I as an individual suffer from
