      What is Imposter syndrome?

    • @BritTellstheTruth
      @BritTellstheTruth 2 года назад +7

      Before I watch, I want to say I went through the same feeling going through nursing! I told my therapist & she told me it was a false belief because I went through all the training, had the skills etc..! It made me feel a little better but I realize that it just takes time to get comfortable in ANY NEW ROLE. Anyways I hope all is well! Thanks again for responding on IG! ❤️

    Honestly, I can RELATE, I mean R E L A T E. I got an opportunity to do a qualitative research in my psychology programme 2 months ago. I was freaking out because it was a great opportunity but I had never done a research before, let alone qualitative....I was working so much on it (probably burnt out a bit in the process) BUT I WON in one competition and then went to international conference and WON THE 2ND place! I was so so so nervous before presenting because "I'm just me, what am I doing here .. presenting my research when those people are professionals, I will look like a fool." That did not happen at all and they very much appreciated my hard work in such a short time and being to do such a GREAT research. Never doubt yourself people. YOU CAN DO IT. 💗

    your a gem. I think you were the first medical student I ever watched and it was about four years ago. You have made the whole process seem realistic on becoming a physician. Without that I am not sure I would have felt as I did towards this profession, and I am pleased to say that I have been pre-accepted into a local medical school as a high school senior. I have loved watching you go through this process and I hope I can find my rhythm as well as you have :)

    Thank you Rachel for always being very transparent and reminding us that it is indeed okay to be human and feel negative at times. Feeling reassured knowing that even someone like you (who I look up to) may go through similar feelings. Keep doing what you're doing, you don't even know how much you're helping others by sharing your journey. (P.S. I'm currently wearing my new Herd Varsity Crewneck while watching this video and lemme tell you, it is SO warm and cozy).

    Thank you for sharing this vlog! It speaks volumes to my soul!!! I’ve had this “issue” of feeling I’m not good enough or like I’m in a dream. I’m taking my Nclex and I’ve followed you throughout my Nursing school journey and I’m so glad you are reiterating that it’s normal. I’ve had so many wonderful opportunities and reaffirming moments that although I may not think I deserve the opportunity to care for those in their most vulnerable states of life it’s been my dream and calling and it’s finally here and my hard work is paying off. I value your channel and the motivation you share with me and many others. Take care! I would trust my family and loved ones in your care just based off of how much of yourself you’ve devoted yourself to journey in medicine. Best of luck!

    I was at an event the journalism college (I'm not a journalism major but it sounded interesting so I went) at my school held a month or two back and Dr. Jelani Cobb (super distinguished and incredibly smart and talented journalist and professor, definitely look into his work) was speaking. At one point in the talk, he started talking about imposter syndrome and said something that will likely stick with me for the rest of my life and will probably help me get through undergrad, med school, and residency and hopefully it can help anyone who reads this:
    "If you have imposter syndrome or feel like you don't belong, that likely means you're exactly where you're supposed to be because true imposters don't feel that way"

    i have felt major imposter syndrome this year of school and playing collegiate softball. My first year playing I had no playing time and no opportunities vs. my sophomore year getting praised for my hard work and getting more opportunities. I felt major imposter syndrome like how did I go from a bench player to someone with an important role on the team. I didn’t feel I deserved it especially since most of my friends are starters. I would tell my friends I am feeling imposter syndrome and they would not understand at all. Thank you for making this video and helping me understand what I was feeling.

Why is it taking less time then?!? Am I passively pressing ? Because I don’t feel any smarter than I was 2 hours ago. I don’t know if this is helping me. How do I check it?? I feel like I’m not studying at all. I am spending so much time studying but I don’t know if it’s entering my head.
