How do you draw the line between exaggeration and whatnot?
The problem exposed by the imposter syndrome is not about lie at all.
One day you are creating something, shipping products, feeling valuable and knowledgeable. The other day you start wondering if it was mostly the team around you, and what you've been doing wasn't that important in the large scale of things.
The imposter syndrome is about this kind of doubt. It doesn't mean what you wrote in the resume is a lie, or that your story about working on things is a lie. It just makes you reconsider your role in the events.
