People with ADHD often deal with Imposter Syndrome. We often feel like frauds, always afraid that we will not measure up to the expectations that others, and even ourselves, hope to achieve.

The negative environment that many grew up in, and may still live in, is the root of many of our issues with Imposter Syndrome. We have to learn to create an environment of positivity in our lives to replace the negativity that we lived with. That means learning to ask for help, building a support system, redefining our expectations of success, developing a system that works for us, forgiving our mistakes and learning from our failures, and setting boundaries for ourselves and others.

Many people deal with Imposter Syndrome, and it’s rooted in many of the same things; constant negativity, criticism, shame, fear, and unrealistic expectations made by those around us. Sometimes the negativity comes from within ourselves because, in our own minds, we do not meet our own expectations.
