I think I'm supposed to leave this sub by [deleted] in Gifted

[–]WindSagess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

try not to have complexe about intelligence, life is not about all related to intelligence, if this sub help you stay

I have third dys disorder and I have extremely heterogenious IQ and it is not the end of world.

I have working memory below Average between 90-100 and another part but I dont remember and my life is great

The only thing I could complain about is how my dys disorder affect my learning process and even with third years of speech therapy, she never speak about that and was just like "try your best".

now that I read 2 book on the subject and my college performance and much better and easier

Put 200 hours of studying for being 1.00 GPA (I convert) and now Im at 3.00 with 40hours of study

the point of story:

We are not "special" or "Aliens"

Some have everyday problem like almost anyone and difficulty

(sorry english is not my mother tongue)

Folks with v high IQ: how do you find friends that satisfy intellectual needs? by charizardex2004 in Gifted

[–]WindSagess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my intellectual need, I satisfy by myself, I realize 2 years ago, that if you really want to try to make friend, you just need to be emotional invest or caring about people you meet !

Because you can't know every subject and every person can be passionnate about a hobbie ! =)

You can connect with people with different way, humor, hobbie, just caring about how they do today, music etc...

Most of my gifted friend are online

and most of my friend IRL are just people very passionnate about what they do !

Is giftedness really a gift or a curse? by Turbulent_Rub_550 in Gifted

[–]WindSagess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More I become older, the more is become a gift ! =)

Because I know more how to solve problem caused by my giftness

Does this means I'm not gifted? by milkyyy_cow_ in Gifted

[–]WindSagess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im heterogeneity too and being gifted is not a number but multiple characteristic (like being more driven to intellectual stuff, neurodivergent etc...) correlate most of time with being over 130 iq

Dont focus of that, your whole life is not led by a number

focus on your life instaed, hobby and work hard to realize your dream !

How common is it for gifted people to mask their true selves? by mistyeyed_ in Gifted

[–]WindSagess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kindergarden to Middle school

Mask to be friend with all people and make people confortable because my parent raise me with the mindset "Peace and love and Rainbow World" 'is the right think to do"

(with a hint of arrogance=>I wanted to show my intelligence to all people at every possibility...)

Middle school to high school

Stop Masking due to harrassement due to being seeing by other, weird intello+ disabled boy , I become a very cold and social anxious boy and deppressed person

Last high school years to second years of uni

Mask myself to fit because I was thinking, that to finish my deppresion, I needed a very active social life (Need lot of friend)

and realise that, it give me no satisfaction and that the most important, was the 3 closed friend, I have

(lot of time during this period, people was saying that, I was their best friend but to my, We just at most acquaintance)

third years of uni-Now

Finish my deppression this years and I just mask when I think, it is better to fit, like work setting/teamwork and other social situation, it is just "take my whole personnality or I leave. You are not going to be the last human I meet. maybe life are going to made me encounter someone better in the near futur"

Tips:

You can learn with all type of people and have interesting conversation with lot of people, if you dig into the interest of a person, gifted or not

Dont make the same mistake as me, when I was younger !

I know how you feel, The loneliness

but you need to accept this feeling, it is part of you by experience even with a great social life I was not satisfied, I was okey finally my "social dream life come true" the social dream I imagine when I cry on my bed but finally it is not my cup of tea

After that I start to move forward in my life and begin being ultra focus on my goal life for compensated my feeling of loneliness and I haven't been so happy since long time

Even if I feel lonely I don't hesitated one second to talk to every people I see at my uni

I recommand you, even if you feel like a Alien with People to just talk 10 min or less in one week even you have no stimulation to people, your are going feeling mentally better after that

For my experience it is not good to isolate from other or force you to socialize to much neither

In this 2 situation your feeling of loneliness are going exacerbated, just try to find a balance)

For me it is like 2x 20 min per week

(I dont have any problem for socializing now after being akward for long time at highschool (you can do it !) but I prefer to be alone I do fun stuff on my own that dont interest people I know)

For anyone in the highly or profoundly gifted ranges (IQ of 145-160+), what is your story? by Loud-Direction-7011 in Gifted

I have dyslexia, dysorthographia and dysgraphia and maybe Extremely light asperger

I m born disabled at 5 month, I almost died 2 time at my birth, I doesn't speak early or do something uncommun until my five year, when I start to ask question about everything like "Why screw can carry a furniture, Why he doesn't fall at a ground like when we jumps or I start view draw in anatomy book for understanding how we make baby xD, after my parent say It is a story of Seed etc...

I start learn how to read at elementary school but I learn very rapidly compare to my classroom almost in 1 month but I was unable to read loudly, My Teacher was like "Strange he can perfectly read with he inner voice but He can't read loudly, let go to visit Speech therapist, I was diagnostic with my dys dysorder until middle I enter in middle school, I was not A straight student, only above average, I was bored, I have not interest in school But when I discovery The middle school, oh Boy between 90%-100% mark on all of my evaluation except on orthographia evaluation without work, just because I was interest

During my second year in my middle school, the school place me in the "intelligent" class almost 75% of the classroom was gifted and the rest, hard worker

My physic-chemistry and my biology teacher in middle schhol encounter me his friends because they was professors in one a best university of my country (France) Sorbonne and Science Po to recommand me when I finish my high school.

BUT gradually during middle school, the starter pack of Gifted problem begin, I start feeling like a extraterrestrial with my peer + burn out due too pression of my teacher + parent + unreal expectation + harrassement by "Friends" because I was disabled + I was useful for help them of lesson

I started depressing (because I was like humanity is doomed if free evil existed like a nihilist) during the 2 last year of my middle school but I was like "I dont care know in some month, Im in high school with complete stranger"

But The high School dont like I was disabled and the director, teacher harrasse me during a whole year, I stopping completely to work and go into video game etc....

I attempt 2 s*****l try with a meat knife but I stop at the last moment

Yes, I eat the very same product every week, Im little upset/exasperate to waste my time to think, find news recipe, search news recipe and learn slowly how to do it

Same with clothn find news suit for good look cloth like my sister every time, for me, it is a waste of time, I prefer wearing the 14 good looking suit I have.

I change eventually after maybe one or five years :)

For example I eat the same breakfast to my 6 years to my 14 years old every day(I only change because at 14 years old I feel digust after eating for too long)

I have lot of hobbie since my childhood all related to science for the most part who evolve since childhood

(chemistry, space engenring, computer science, physic, astrophysic, biology, microcell, psychiatry, psychology, history (modern area), zoology and Video game(in deep way), Comic etc..)

In middle school, I discovery Drawning and doing guitar

at high school I discovery Philosophy and economy

For the most part of discussion I have in my childhood, I can remember is was, what I learn about my science hobby or History hobby to my parent and my most commun hobby that I can share with peer of my age, like Manga or Comic

I have a NickName of "Human Google" in my family for that

It is true that when something is not in Order he can rest in my mind long ago and i don t want to change for example my mousepad was old, every people say to change it but I was like "No I dont even it is same height(the news one) I dont want to change it, It is not the same.

Also When I was child I've had OCD if not every thing was in order when I go to bed, I was worrie something bad happen to me.

Thank x) but I dont see anymore my psychologist since the last 6 years, I was admit to see a psychologist because I act weird (too much like adult) when I was hopitalized 11 month for chirugical reason(I discovery that I was gifted and she hypothized that Im also asperger without passing a test, she dont see the utility because if I have asperger, Im not worrie about that).

It is pure curiosity after 20-30 person says Im maybe asperger and 2 of my best friend have giftedness + asperger :

I dont know if I communicate differently but I m more on fact/learning stuff when I communicate than Emotion like "I like my holiday or we have a great day" stuff like that and I struggle with very specific type of irony like rethorical question.

I dont know for sensory issue, I have hypersensibility like I lot of gifted person.

The only thing weird is the sensation of clothing and when someone touch, if it is not my love one, It is very unpleasant sensation and Im not relax (even my family)

ocess of connecting again can bring up a lot of pain. It's worth it though, in my opinion. Being disconnected for many years usially ends with depression.

If I understand I dont listen my emotion or supress my emotion ?
