Imposter Syndrome is a feeling of not being good enough and doubting your own accomplishments (whether it be in work, school, relationships, social interactions, academia, etc.). People with Imposter Syndrome attribute their success to luck, or tricking others into believing they are smarter than they are. They fear they will be discovered as frauds.

I keep saying they, but many people experience this in their lifetime at least once.
