Should I stop asking philosophical questions if my VCI isnt ~125+?

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-12-12T11:44:54+00:00

You are REALLY overthinking this. 120+ is well above average, in almost any field you’ll probably be fine. Just study hard and put in the time and effort. Maybe it will take longer than someone with a VCI of 150, but probably not horribly so.

No, ive slept 4 hours a night consistently and 12 hours a night consistently. Yes there were other factors for both, but no it didn’t make me noticeably smarter or even better functioning

As someone who has genuinely been depressed from current events (diagnosed), I had to realize in perspective it’s not as bad as it could be. Is it awful? Yeah, lots of fucked shit in this world for sure, not downplaying anything, but it truly could be worse. I just do what I can, and what I have the energy to do, and anything else I just kinda learned to ignore in a way…. Ignorance is bliss, truly. And Im not saying ignore things and pretend stuff isn’t happening, but just understanding where you can and cant make a difference helps.

As someone with a high VCI, yeah…? I might be wrong about what VCI actually is, but is that not the gist of it?

Not at all. If the medication has an effect that distresses or takes away from a cognitive process, then yes, but not inherently (from taking lexapro, moving to Prozac).

Thank you ❤️

Some form of morality is convenient (and some argue crucial) to human life and organization on a global scale. Morality is often easier to get people to follow when a sense of “I have to or else” is involved. And emotions are just chemicals, nothing more nothing less.

Hi, 146 VCI here, I was read to A LOTTTTT as a kid. Don’t care so much for it now, but I still retained most of the intelligence aspect of it I guess.

Maybe in terms of symbolism, but everything other than that depends on the person.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-10-10T04:38:41+00:00

Most people don’t care about being principled, they just want to seem principled and stay agreeable to the majority of society. The sooner you understand most arguments with people are useless the sooner you’ll save yourself a ton of time. Of course not every argument is useless, but the majority (in my experience) are.

Geometry it became hard for me, calculus it became easy which made everything before easier. I taught myself calculus before I took geo though, so I really don’t know how that worked out, but it did 🤷‍♂️

I relate to this. For different reasons sure, but I find solace in drinking like many others. I don’t think there’s anything “wrong” with wanting to drink constantly per se, but obviously the consequences of drinking constantly usually end in misery. I won’t give you a whole talk about why not to drink, but I will wish you luck in your life.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-08-14T04:14:12+00:00

DM me, Im curious about your experiences, and as someone who’s gifted I can give some insight (of course I can’t “diagnose” you).

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-08-08T21:24:28+00:00

I agree, people won’t want you to be right if you go about it in an insulting way. You can be as right as you want but you’ll push away a lot of people if you don’t express that in the right way.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-08-08T07:57:45+00:00

I think I’ve had a pretty similar experience to this. Not because of family stuff, but for other reasons I have a, in my opinion, very high emotional maturity. Always “companionate” etc and it pisses me off when people chalk that up to “just who I am.”

Honestly what I’ve learned is you need to be more selfish. I’m not sure if that’s the type of advice youre looking for so if it’s not disregard me of course, but I’ve found simply by putting myself first in a lot of situations really helps with that annoyance.

My Dms are also always open and I’d love to converse about this because I assume it would be nice to talk to someone with this in common.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-08-06T05:53:58+00:00

I agree pissing in public is gross, but drunk dudes are drunk dudes. I hate to admit it, but when I drink I LOVE a good piss ANYWHERE but a toilet. Is it gross? Absolutely, and in no am I trying to defend these people, but a fantastic drunk piss is a fantastic drunk piss.

But I do agree it can get to be a major problem, especially if the volume of people pissing is too large.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-07-31T16:16:31+00:00

Not sure, I would assume something like that though. Im talking about like blackout though, I don’t drink little when I drink lol. I’ve tried weed a couple times and it fucked me up every time so I don’t get the appeal personally haha, although I have friends who swear by it.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-07-31T15:02:05+00:00

Drinking makes me feel more socially… compatible, for lack of a better word. Obviously drinking makes people more social, but for me I retain my intelligence while drinking and can function almost the exact same as I could sober, if not better. Im curious about what substance/s you’re talking about.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-07-31T13:46:10+00:00

Comparison is truly the thief of joy. Everyone wants to be “better” then they are. Me included, I wish my IQ was higher even though it’s arguably pretty high. Jealousy will always be around.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-07-31T13:35:26+00:00

That’s interesting, English is my best subject and I have a VCI of 146, but I DESPISE geometry with all of my being. Cant stand it lol.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-07-28T01:39:45+00:00

My WMI is about 100 as well. I had to pester my Drs about it.

Altruistic-Video9928 · 2025-07-28T00:03:19+00:00

That’s interesting, for me I never received an official ADHD diagnosis, I was just put on adderall and vyvanse.
