For what it's worth, I've been working as some role in IT for 25 years, published a book and written some heavily used pieces of software and feel the same way. It helped me to start sharing those thoughts with others I respected in the community to get their feedback and to help fight that negative voice in my head. I think those thoughts are common and when they are (now) shared with me, I confirm to the person that to tell themselves that it's crazy talk; sometimes my brain wants to keep me isolated even though that's the opposite of what's healthy for it.
