I Don’t Belong Here: Imposter Syndrome and the Neurodivergent Brain

In this episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott open up about imposter syndrome — the belief that you’re never good enough, never qualified enough, and that one day everyone will “figure you out.”


With humour and honesty, they share personal stories of childhood bullying, masking, perfectionism and self-doubt, and how growing up misunderstood leaves many autistic and ADHD adults feeling like their achievements aren’t real. From turning down opportunities to assuming every success is luck, they explore why confidence is so difficult for neurodivergent minds.

They discuss how imposter syndrome shows up in work, relationships, creativity and social media — and how therapy, self-compassion and supportive people can slowly rewrite the story.


They explore:

  • Why imposter syndrome is so common for autistic & ADHD adults
  • Growing up hearing you’re “lazy,” “too much,” or “not trying”
  • How masking and people-pleasing destroy self-worth
  • The fear of failure — and the fear of success
  • Social media, comparison and anxiety
  • Why confidence takes time and why small wins matter
  • When self-criticism becomes self-harm
  • Why reaching out can save people from spiralling alone


This is a raw, validating conversation for anyone who has ever worked twice as hard and still felt like a fraud. If you struggle to believe in yourself, this episode is proof that you’re not alone — and that healing is possible.
