I started a new role in my company a bit over 3 months ago, and I am having a lot of impostor syndrome. I cannot differentiate if it is real or not, but I feel really anxious and more on Sundays…I feel pretty sad and frustrated, advices?

Ask for feedback! Communication is important.
I did CBT therapy for imposter syndrome and their recommendation was to look for evidence of your performance. Do they compliment you? Do they give you a lot of critiques? Do they reward you with bonuses? Are they trying to push you out the door?
Since you likely haven’t gone through a review cycle yet, my recommendation above is to ask for feedback. Even if it isn’t for sanity, this gives you an opportunity to adjust early on.

Hello Fishes,

I need some advice regarding this situation and what to do. So I work for a company that offers outsourcing services to major investment banks around the world. I have been working for a new client for about six months now and they seem to like my work so far. Recently I saw that they're hiring to get people on their team at my level. My question is, should I talk to my client and try to pursue them to consider me for the role they're hiring for?
