Are you sure it needs to be "cured"? Lately I have been thinking that it's a blessing in disguise; a painful -but effective- motivator to improve and seek out new skills and more knowledge.

Yes, it comes with a side of depression, and that really sucks, but I've found if I'm deep in some tech I don't know, it doesn't seem to affect me nearly as much.

Could it be jut us getting restless? The feeling we haven't learned anything new or faced any new challenges lately?

Nah, as you say it is a blessing. And I wouldn't trust anyone who thinks they're underrated or they know "enough" about anything.

I bet one could win a Nobel prize for breakthrough research and still feel like a fraud. "Ugh, did those idiots really give _me_ a Nobel prize for this? What were they thinking?" :)
