dolonia – n. a state of unease prompted by people who seem to like you too much, which makes you wonder if they must have you confused with someone else – someone flawless, selfless, or easy to understand from a distance – feeling vaguely disappointed that they’re unwilling to spend the time it takes getting to know the real you.
I have a bit of dolonia when I meet some people at events who seem extra excited to meet me. I wonder sometimes if they think I’m someone I’m not. Not a different person, but their impression of what I’ve done with SQL Server Central seems outsized compared to what I think I’ve done.
Perhaps I have the opposite of dolonia, not realizing my own impact.
In either case, it’s a certainly a strange life I lead some days.
From the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows


For you, I think that it is the opposite. Perhaps also consider the impact you have enabled as well?

Good point. I think it’s hard sometimes to have a good view of yourself. Whether you’re humble or not, you likely under- or over-estimate what you are
