#imposter syndrome and shit

[sylphrene]

pluralism (is that a word?), self-perception through art and ocs, and pokemon's strong role in it

sometimes, we have to have a day where we allow ourselves to do absolutely nothing because we are emotionally stuck. nothing seems right, and everything seems dreadfully mundane. you feel like you’re the only person on the planet (while also feeling like the world is spinning without you).

sometimes, distracting ourselves 24/7 with productivity stops us from realizing what we need. i hate that we have become a society where everything we do has to be commodified.

why can’t we be okay just doing “nothing” tasks? you don’t always have to be pursuing something. what happened to taking a few mins out to do that thing that feels like “nothing” but makes you happy? like what’s wrong with playing sims or taking a nap? what’s wrong with accepting that some days just don’t work and there’s nothing wrong with accepting that???

like…burnout is so real. ppl tell us to stay inspired and ~keep going~ but you have to have the energy and the presence to do so. like in all of us the spark is there, but we don’t have the capacity to nurse it.

better to let that fire burn organically (and light it again when you have time and energy…) as often as you can than to rush every second and not even know you’re at the end of the wick.

#on the other end of it there is unhealthy escapism but that’s not what this post is abt #i just genuinely hate how older adults specifically also have this weird idea of what nothin looks like #like I always say: the things that are nurtured and encouraged as kids are shitted on as adults #this may not even make sense but that’s why i wrote it for me idk #at the end of the day life is gonna be whatever I make it and I choose to let my fire burn on MY TIME #even if that time is objectively ‘wasted’. at least my days are longer #words #recovery #burnout #imposter syndrome #depression #chronic illness #actually adhd

[cluster-b-culture-is]

Cluster b [NPD&ASPD?] culture is being jealous of people who have done more horrible things than you. Like yeah this shit is seriously fucking up my life but... I haven't done *that* yet. How I allow myself to recover if I haven't done *that* yet!?

.

#cluster b culture is #npd culture is #aspd culture is #aspd + npd culture is #cluster b #npd #aspd #Mod Reef #anonymous #our lack of physical violence is due to our physical disabilities (our hip can dislocate if we do as much as lay in bed wrong) #but thanks to our npd and imposter syndrome it sure as hell fucks with us that we're not As Bad as others around us #we reassure ourselves by remembering all of the terrible shit we did as a child and still don't feel bad about (which we will not detail) #basically just petting our brain and going ''shhh it's okay you're fucked up and evil don't worry you aren't secretly faking''

Me : posts a new chapter / story on ao3

Me, checking ao3 stats 0.5 seconds later : 3 hits, zero kudos, zero comments

My brain : ohhhh your writing is actually terrible and they definitely hate us now :(((

#Personal #Fanfic #nanowrimo #Writing #fanfiction #Ao3 #Fandom #Shit post? Kinda??? #Lmao this is me everytime I post anything new lol T-T #the imposter syndrome is real #WHY AM I LIKE THIS LMFAOOOO #I keep telling myself 'have PATIENCE' #But my brain is like #Nope we will NOT >:(

[pastafossa]

There'll likely be a chapter tomorrow and you have @wonderlandmind4 to thank for that, both for beta-ing for me and for smacking my really really bad imposter syndrome voice over the head with a rolled-up newspaper until it was not so loud, because damn, have I been deep in it and worried about finally posting again.

#the red thread #i literally do not have words for how deep in an imposter-syndrome anxiety hole i've been for the past few months #i have been convinced everything i wrote since covid was stupid or bad and i'd get nothing but 'pasta what happened this is shit' comments #because all i was told before posting trt for the first time was. well. that it was a shit idea and everyone would hate it #and i guess struggling with the words/brain fog put me back there #i could see *nothing* but bad every time i went over the new chapter(s) #i think sometimes you need a good friend to hit that voice over the head and then take the good parts and hold them up in front of you

[trosebud]

I'm almost done with chapter four of Imposter Syndrome on Ao3. I thought I'd do a sketch because I have no desire to do a full piece. I'll probably post it on Saturday <3

me, born and raised jewish and grew up surrounded by jewish people and culture:

ok what if i meet these (also jewish) people and i say some dumb shit bc it turns out everything i was taught is entirely fake. what if everyone there hates me. what if i say something really weird bc i miss having in person jewish friends, something that is a luxury here.

#jewish #jumblr #theres a lot of shit to be said abt how rural USA culture and jewish culture do not mix well #this is rlly mostly just the anxiety in my brain though #and imposter syndrome

BEIng sick is a pain

#I feel like a deflated tower of jenga when i sit down anywhere and i forget its cause my lungs are fighting to breathe cause i feel normal #in bedrest and the imposter syndrom in my brain is like “well you MUST be better stop being lazy and do shit” #gets up immediately and feels the weight of the sick pull me down like a stamina meter is being drained #I WANNA DO THINGS #I CANT EVEN DRAWNHNNGNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA #cries #smoki rambles

Neurotypicals be like: Just use a planner broooo

Sir, you don't get it. If I got a planner 1 out of 4 things is going to happen.

1. My demand avoidance will kick in and I would rather rip out every single strand of hair on my body one by one than fill out a to-do list.

Or

2. I actually get everything done from my planner, but my imposter syndrome kicks in and since I set those goals for myself even though I accomplished them, they mean nothing and are therefore not worthy of acknowledgement.

Or

3. I will fill out the planner and then forget it exists. So like who is going to remind me to check my planner or use my planner to begin with?

Or

4. The worst of them all, I will end up with a planner filled with things I gotta do, remember it, not get anything done but with the extra guilt of not getting anything done.

maybe. maybe I start writing again tonight. I feel like shit because it feels like all I ever do is hype myself up and say im gonna post things and then I dont. but maybe I can start again soon the brain fog has kinda cleared a little rn I gotta take this chance

#i have so much imposter syndrome im a FRAUD and i have tricked everyone here into following and liking my shit #i apologise #egg.txt

god I wish I could look up ftm stuff without being hit by an absolute deluge of detrans/pregnancy shit in the tags. I viscerally hate both of those things to the point that I mostly just don't go looking anymore because it isn't worth it. would it be so damn hard to not put those things under the regular ftm tag.

I don't blame the people with those kinks for having them mind you, it just feels really inconsiderate to be throwing your "teehee I'm a confused girl" fantasy shit directly into the faces of anyone who searches ftm tags and might already be really fucking tired of hearing that from people who are completely serious.

#considering how much work it is in real life just to get people to stop treating me like Nonbinary Plus™ it's just. must we #why is everyone's first reaction to trans men apparently to find absolutely any excuse to not refer to them as men #I mean I know why it's because we let the terfs con everyone into their whole 'the only correct opinion about men is to hate them' tripe #but still it's annoying and disheartening like no wonder I've got perpetual imposter syndrome #even my fuckin mom after I came out was like 'oh yes you know I've always seen you as more gender neutral' #WELL THAT SUCKS FOR YOU BECAUSE I'M NOT #I HAVE A GENDER. NOT THE GENDER ANYONE APPARENTLY WANTS ME TO HAVE BUT I HAVE IT NONETHELESS #DON'T REALLY CARE ANYMORE THAT IT MAKES YOU UNCOMFORTABLE NOT BEING ABLE TO SHIT ON MEN AROUND ME #the really annoying thing is that the whole 'trans fetishization' thing (WHEN IT'S CONSENSUAL) can be hot just. #not in the way these people are doing it

[spit8]

thinking about the time when i was around 14yo and my favorite band was linkin park, like having cds and i even went to a concert once. but one time at school i was wearing my linkin park shirt and my nemesis (we went through a literal best friends to enemies trope) came up to me like "ummm name all members of linkin park" and i fumbled cuz wtf i hate you + i just knew chester bennington. he laughed in my face that i was a fake fan and i got SO pissed off so fucking angry and embarrassed that i memorized most of their track titles and every member, even ex, and for the next maybe like a month id keep on reciting it in my head at school in hopes he would ask me the same question again and i could destroy him. he never did and now i still only remember chester

#but man what kind of imposter syndrome this ha started in me #sometimes when listening to an iconic band in my headphones on the street i think shit like ok if someone asked me what im listening to #id say this and that and id say this is my favorite album and song and have to keep myself from googling names #hate post to my middle school nemesis id kick your shins even after 7 years of no contact #txt #whatever

[autism-culture-is]

Autism culture is feeling like a fraud when you cover your nose because of a smell, or put in earplugs. It doesn't always bother you so why is it now? (Rhetorical question)
