It\u2019s not a disease, but if you don\u2019t look after the issue it can turn into anxiety and some other issues. It needs help from the people around you, but it also needs sincerity on your side. It\u2019s not related with your learning abilities nor with how many subjects you\u2019ve passed, nor with the need to show that you have knowledge, and neither with working hard and not obtaining the right results. This is something else: this is in your mind.<\/p>\n<p>We all do things right and we all do things wrong. Never 2 persons are going to work the same, nor make the same effort to obtain the same results. But this syndrome is not about that: this is about mental health.<\/p>\n<p>Last: do you know who affects this syndrome the most? People on learning environments. Both students and teachers.<\/p>\n<p>Take care. And take care of the ones around you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many of us have felt this way at some point.
