It doesn't.
- some_furry 12y agoErr no, this was THEIR point not mine. I personally don't care about career success. They argue that I should be proud of how far I've gone instead of feeling like a loser all the time. I don't even parse these thoughts when I try to force myself to think them.
- ethanbond 12y agoThat's still not impostor syndrome, and is still just being aware of (at least what you feel are) failures in other realms. Success is defined by you, and clearly includes some things you don't feel that you're succeeding in – relationships – so you're not succeeding.
