My mom does this.
There’s a certain amount of self depreciation that is acceptable. It’s useful for showing that you aren’t threatening and are self aware.
But if it’s constant, it shows lack of confidence and some self hatred. That can be exhausting.
And it’s wrong. You should think highly of yourself. You’re at least in the top 50% of all people, if not higher.
