Imposter Syndrome

Does this look familiar?

THIS is what a validation addiction looks like from the angle of the addict.

This starts with environment and the atmosphere of never being validated, yes.

However, then our own brains take that over and make it our own.

Then, we have the inability to validate our darn selves.

And, that becomes an addiction to finding validation in any form possible.

To take away that imposter syndrome.

It's a shit show.

Epic shit show.

And yet...

And yet, there is hope.

There is treatment.

There is recovery - which lasts a lifetime.

There is re-learning.

There is re-doing.

Over and over and over again.

Until we are capable of validating ourselves.
