pretend!!

I relate so much to your plight!! Being confident is genuinely so difficult, but everyday is a chance to practice. Something I do? Play pretend. Listening to music that pumps me up and wearing an outfit I like usually helps, but the rest is all an elaborate disguise. At first I thought it was delusional for me to think I’m hot shit, and it felt silly to even pretend like it was true. Recently, I’ve actually started to believe it, and I think normalizing that thought in my head through pretending really helped.

paris hilton persona

something i employ when i'm feeling especially self conscious is the “i’m too pretty for” mantra, which is essentially just confidence in the face of self doubt. i.e. if i’m feeling particularly anxious about a social situation ill just repeat to myself, “i‘m too pretty to worry about this.” and it usually helps. i call this the paris hilton persona because its basically a media personality that helps when i’m feeling negatively about myself. developing an alter ego is a good way to train your regular ego into being more confident and self assured, at least in my experience! hope this helps

fake it till you make it

and congrats!! But also instead of thinking "Am i the imposter?" I go "I am the infiltrator, and I'll keep at it until I get caught lol" and then eventually it becomes second nature, and you stop worrying about all that and start worrying about yet another thing instead. Life is funny like that.
