Another sleepless night spent agonizing over every interaction from the day before. I shouldn’t have spoken up in that meeting. Everyone is probably laughing at me behind my back. Why don’t I keep my big mouth shut? You try to push these thoughts down and ignore them, but it’s no use. You’re terrified no one will like you for who you are, so you pretend to be someone else. And for a time, it worked. But every day, you feel less like yourself, more like an imposter. You distance yourself from loved ones, worried they’ll notice this change in you. You’re feeling disconnected – like you have no control over your life. You need help.
