You know when you feel false, like a fake and everyone knows it? Like you’re just incompetent and don’t deserve to be at your job, in your relationship, or with those other successful people? This is a common feeling called the imposter syndrome, and everyone gets it. It’s a little different from those with BPD, and tends to be more intense. BPD uses these moments to eat away at your sense of self, your power to resist it, and at the authenticity of your true ability to impact your life and the situations you’re in. In this video we're going to discuss the imposter syndrome, BPD, and what you can do about it.
The imposter syndrome causes you to feels that your identity you’ve created for yourself and present to others is false and unattainable, and everyone knows it (show face of fear). Everyone feels it, from billionaires to you and me. The feeling and intensity can be quite intense for those with BPD, however.
We know that individuals with BPD have identity problems related to fuzzy self-concept and feelings of imposterism that are related to facets of perfectionistic self-presentation (not making any mistake, ever!) along with the tendency to engage in splitting with self-images, like “I must be perfect or I’m fake and false and everyone knows it”.
Identity, self-worth, and connection are among the core struggles for many perfectionistic and individuals with BPD. You’re not alone in this struggle. Know that others deal with imposter syndrome, perfectionistic expectations, and splitting but with hard work and the tools to get there, you can beat this.
