Recently I moved into a a big title at work and have been busting my ass every day to get this startup company where it needs to be. I get great feedback from my bosses, but now I’m constantly thinking I’m going to get fired any time I make a mistake or if a customer is going to leave. I can’t turn off at all and always opening my Slack to see if someone messaged me (they never do).

I guess my question to you all is, does anyone feel the same as you’ve gotten older? My 20’s were fine, but I’ve found in my 30s (now 36) that my imposter syndrome is insanely off the charts and I’m struggling with my mental health. I work remote as well so it’s really hard to disconnect.

What do you all do to turn off, especially in the winter? I don’t have kids so I don’t have that distraction when I’m done with work. Idk thanks for letting me vent and I guess just hoping I’m not alone in this feeling.
