I am an engineer. My boss, supervisor and work mates tell me that I'm good and they "reflect" it to me accordingly.

But when I get back home, I feel inadequate. Who am I compared to them. "I thought you're an engineer?" "I thought you're smart" -- I always receive such comments. And I carry it everywhere I go.

Even if everyone tells me I'm good, I always feel inadequate and anxious to do something wrong somehow. I question everything that I do. I question every decision I make. I am always anxious. It somehow makes my head go numb, literally.
