impostor syndrome, self compassion, guilt, trauma "yo does anyone else feel CONSTANTLY guilty? like you've always done something wrong but you dont know what it is? yes, and i've spoken to my therapist about it, who offered an explanations: she says that people who from a young age were made to feel like they keep doing things wrong - people who's parents had impossibly high standards for them, people who were bullied, people who have special needs, people who didnt develop crushes on the "right" people, people who didnt act like the "right" gender - basically ended up made to feel guilty so much that guilt became their default response to anything which the person didnt already have a set emotion for people for whom guilt is the default emotional respones are also more likely to have low self-esteem, doubt their own experiences, and experience impostor syndrome. so, watch out for that too guys"
