I had this feeling a lot. Then I stopped drinking, moved out of my parents house, and started eating healthier. It's only been a month, but just making time for myself and putting my own comfort first, being aware of my own uninterrupted being, made me cool down a little bit. Perhaps it might come crashing back, but at the moment, you have to realize that maybe the feeling you are not good enough might arise because you are doing something you might not do. You feel like you are incomplete because you have created this image you must reach. Perhaps you might not get that job you want, but then you weren't suited for it in the first place. You may cram, you may try to force yourself to do it, but that should be a sign that you aren't doing the right thing. You should learn something because you want to. If you are still a student, then this is unavoidable because the system is designed for competition and there is that #1 spot that someone will naturally fill. If that's not you, that's not an issue. There might be dominance heirarchies, but also the world seems to be complex enough and there seems to be enough people in the world who aren't #1 in anything, but are completely content. The best way to compete is to not compete at all.
