    If you feel this enough to come to the comments, there’s a good chance you have undiagnosed ADHD (because you cope well enough, but “aren’t living up to your potential”). An aspect of ADHD is rejection sensitivity dysphoria, which also applies to “failures” like in this meme. Getting medicated at age 29 has been life changing for me
