$500 Million Worth MrBeast Admits to Suffering From ‘Imposter Syndrome’ With His Current Success

Popularity not only brings success but more challenges too. Some of those challenges can be related to one’s mental health. After all, it could take a heavy toll on the physical and mental state of a person while trying to maintain their success. Even the YouTube megastar MrBeast had to deal with such problems.

Jimmy ” MrBeast” Donaldson has become the face of content creation in the present time. He is the most prominent creator on YouTube, with over 118 million subscribers. But becoming so popular can be mentally stressful. The 24-year-old content creator once shared about dealing with Imposter Syndrome.

Jimmy Donaldson agreed to go with this problem once in his life. The 24-year-old shared, “I think I did at one point. If I walk into Walmart, like 30 people follow me around, and I’m like, ‘oh.’ The only time I really feel is when we get to make a wish. Because now that we’re really starting to get big.”

“We get those quite a bit. I’m like, well, all the people on the planet, like why me? I tell them to give them their wish back. I’ll send them a video saying ‘hi’ and you know, talking to them or whatever. But don’t waste the f*cking wish on me that makes me feel horrible.”

For those unaware, Imposter Syndrome is a mental condition when one starts questioning their own value. As a result, they can begin feeling unworthy of all the praise and success they achieved in life. And the people in the creative space have often been the victim of this syndrome.
