Anyone else ever get achievement anxiety?
I've been noticing it in myself alot lately.

I dont know what it is but when I do good or get complimented I get nervous and embarrassed. Its like what the fuck. I have never really been the type to celebrate a job well done.

essentially it's exactly as Kraven described. Like I know I can do well, perhaps exceptional even, but I have some kind of latent subconscious mechanism that makes me want to demean my own art and raise up others. As if other people are more capable and I ought to be in awe. But I know I am just as powerful...I don't know it's bizarre and complex I guess..
