    I recently found out my IQ is right around 125. People always told me I was very intelligent, had a great memory, etc. I’ve always been complimented on my skills. I never saw myself as above or better than anyone else. And I always felt like I was just okay at things people tell me I’m really talented at. I still feel that way. All I know Is I’m Autistic and when I’m interested in stuff I learn it and do it until I feel I’m competent because I’m a perfectionist. But I still feel like I dont know enough and still aren’t skilled enough. I still dont think my IQ being around 120 within a point or two with the tests I took. Same as you, I’m quiet and reserved and focus basically on my interests/hobbies. My wife is always impressed for some reason with anything I do. She’s always asking how I know so much about so many things and how I retain vast amounts on knowledge/information, even if it hasn’t been relevant for years, but I can just pull the information out of thin air when needed. I dont see myself as this crazy intelligent or skilled person. Of anything i feel pretty flawed and like there’s still so much to learn that I dont know. To think I’m this highly intelligent being makes me feel dumb because I know there’s so much that I still dont know. I just have this hunger for knowledge and information. I really tend to learn new musical instruments, I read a lot, research all kinds of of topics. I’ve met college professors who thought I had college degrees because I could keep up with them in conversation about all kinds of abstract concepts and ideas. I’ve met people way older than me who tell me I’m an old soul and far beyond my years, whatever that’s supposed to mean. I really dont think I’m anything special and it makes me feel weird when people praise me in that sense. Idk, to me this all just comes naturally because I’m simply interested in it and want to learn. To me, anyone could do it if they just applied themselves and stopped wasting time with things like social media and trying to get likes and internet fame. Idk, I really dont see myself the way others see me as this crazy talented and intelligent person. If anything, I feel like I could and should be better.

    School is not hell. If one is really smart, intellectually gifted, genius, patting yourself on the back etc etc etc… School is just a place to get through to the next level. It’s like a really bad video game you have to play. One may have an easier time in college university. Actually learn something. But again. You’re just jumping through hoops to get your grade from someone. Real learning, if you’re willing to truly ‘learn something new’ is research. But guess what, in order to do research, you have to jump through hoops to get funding etc. So, as someone in the 3 9’s percentile. Stop having such a high opinion of yourself that you’re smarter than everybody around you. You’re not. Good in physics? Frame a house. Go. Do it? Chances are you’ll suck at it. Just live life and think of what you can do to contribute to make society better.

    Some of the most ‘intellectually gifted’ individuals I know are some of the least productive to society. Intelligence does not mean you’re going to be successful. I know more unemployed, hopeless, depressed…etc etc etc…gifted people than I do with a good ol’ average iq who woke up daily, did their job. And did it well. I feel bad for most people with a ‘high iq’. Because they live several lives. Most are not successful. And can’t figure out why. Most are dissatisfied with what they do because they feel what they’re doing is beneath them. Most have relationship problems because they think they are smarter than everyone around them and no one understands them. Btw. I have 145+ iq. Which puts me in the 0.1% of the population. And guess what. I don’t give a shit. The funny thing was. I was sitting with someone. Kinda knew them on a superficial level. I was just downplaying how dumb I was about something. He then guesses my iq and hits it on the head. The exact number. I was floored. I go, how did you know. He chuckles. He goes. That’s what I do for a living. He was some educator/recruiter. He goes. I actually was going to think of a higher number. But you don’t have the problems that go with it. I just had to laugh.

    Neurotypicals are this way individually yes, but there is still a network of distributed cognition going on. Consider the market, who determines the prices? Everyone does, through their actions. Try a command economy and even the autistic will run short. I don't think us neurodivergents are that good at determining the consequences either, too much complexity.

    There's a spectrum of evolution toward integrated civilization. Most animals are very selfish and short-sided. Most humans are selfish and short-sighted - less so than animals. Neurodivergents often feel confused when others seek local rather than global maximums. Neurotypicals are the majority, so they often oppress global maximizers - often because they don't understand, feel threatened, or suffer from dunning-kruger fallacies. Peter Singer said is best: Today's average people are morally evil. They prioritize easing their own pain, often ignoring evils and suffering of those far away, ignoring the externalities of their actions, instead of reasoning about their place and role in social systems. Aiming toward global maxima when isolated and outnumbered leads to pathologization of neurodivegent behavior. It happens to me over and over that people want to manually execute solutions that should be automated. They say I'm going too slow - failing to consider that their way would get the job done faster today, but my way, though slower, would eliminate the need for such work forever more, with high ROI. I feel like an alien who has landed on a planet of apes. They say: I'll pay you to make this road. I say: Why don't you want to fly? They say: You are stupid. Get to work, or you are fired. So i set out to make durable roads (analogy). I research materials and methods, begin building a machine that can make the most durable roads, out of silicon carbide particles, transformed from recycled glass and aluminum (analogy) - then a monkey manager wanders over while I'm halfway through: What are you doing? This is taking too long. You are stupid. To make roads, you bash rocks. Make gravel. [Picks up my machine and bashes it against a nearby rock] See! Make rocks is easy. Use bad rocks so they will pay us again next year. You are stupid. Go faster, or you are fired. [Wanders off] If the monkeys weren't so numerous, creating so much pain for me, for others, for each other - i could find this behavior curious or endearing, part of the circle of life. But as I see the situation today on Earth... I mostly feel sad, lonely, misunderstood, and under-appdeciated. Every day.

    I can understand. In secondary level, I used to pretend I didn't know the answers in art class when we were learning about the history of art. I was too afraid of looking like an oddball and weirdo in the eyes of my friends. They simply had zero interest in art or art history, but I loved it and secretly read loads of books about all the great artists and was particularly interested in the Italian Renaissance period. Come to think about it, I probably knew more than the teachers when they asked me to answer some questions.

    I failed math big time in school. The reason is complex. End result was I thought I was dumb. Turns out when I got a problem I went half way to solving it automatically, but would forget the first part as I was solving the next part, or lose track of the purpose as I was coming to the end of the calculation. This would all happen within a fraction of a second, no hope of identifying and writing the method. So I would just write a number without having the foggiest clue where that number came from. On a good day the numbers were correct, on a bad day the numbers were not. I needed someone who deeply understood the logic of the math and also understood me! That's a tough ask. 2 decades later I ended up a math lecturer while I did my phd, majority in statistics... I, for a long time resented my teachers for not teaching me what in the end was really simple, but later came to realise they simply didn't have the bandwidth to teach someone like me... what can you do?

    It happened to me with devastating effect to my life, career and health. Emotional abuse, I was invisible. My parents sided always with others and never supported with me. In kindergarten I was blamed for not socialising and not interested enough in common kids play. It has been seen negatively, that I was more creative or wanted to know stuff above my age, I was forced to play other things rather than what I want by actually telling other pupils to block me from playing witch in the playhouse by invading it and forcefully keeping me out. WhennI ran to the teacher he told me, he gave them the permission to "bully" me out there because I shall play with the boys in the sandbox. I said I don't want to, because they are mean, hit me and throw sand at me. He forced me, they hit me and threw sand at me. I complained and seeked help, the teacher ignored me. He said to my parents that I'm not fit for regular class entry because not socialised to the expected standard and slow. (no, I wasn't slow! I just observed and analysed things deeper and therefore longer and didn't rush things on surface as the stupid do!) so in pre entry school. Already considered as the two years for the dump, and therefore was bullied by being there. Pupils and family, (grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins...) in there when we started learning how to write, I'm left handed, I saw that right handed wrote from left to write and therefore didn't smudge the ink, which led to scolding and minus points. So I thought about the logical solution to solve the problem. To prevent smudging the ink, I jad to to write from right to left, which led me to the conclusion to mirror all the letters in order to do it write. I thought it was smart. It was, actually. A kid coming up with that is smart. The teachers didn't thought so.... I was good at maths at the beginning. No difficulties. Even made fun, until the day I started to ask: what do we need that for? Why is this important, what's the benefit in knowing, who came up with it, where do I need this in future... (primary numbers) I've been sent out the door for asking to many questions the teacher only can answer with: because it is so, because you have to, for goodness sake because it's in the curriculum and I'm just doing my job. Same with dividing by zero. I still struggle with it a bit. The teacher said: it's FORBIDDEN to divide by 0! That's the German definition. Forbidden. The problem lays in the wording. So I asked: why is it forbidden? Because your not allowed to divide by 0! But why? What happens if you try? Teacher: you don't try it, it's fundamentally forbidden to even try! Me: but why? What happens? What's the consequence if you try? How did it became forbidden? Whst happend to the one who tried that it became forbidden? Teacher of course answered it's forbidden and that's that, one must be really stupid to question this fundamental rule and try! (so I was dumb for asking the question he couldn't satisfyingly answer) I asked: well to me, it just seems rather pointless to do it, since if there's nothing to divide a number, how could you divide. So why is it forbidden when it seems to me, nothing really is going to happen because you can't divide something with nothing. (here I still struggle, whether I'm right with the nothing, since in English it's undefined, which sounds much more reasonable and wouldn't have confused me entirely but still, is it like nothing?) I asked : why doesn't it result in the same way as multiplying by 0.why doesn't it stay the same but becomes and error? (I still want to know this, my mind is blocked, I can't get it into my head since never explained to me to make sense of it. Anyway it further went on with it. Worst case: Text problem solvings. When the text didn't made sense of led to several possibilities to answer or more information needed not to miss out any correlated factors or research required to proof the information is correct or whether the teacher tries to pull my leg with a joke question or whether he simply wants the figures calculated no matter how nonsensical it was.... So I blocked there too... I was bored by constantly exercising the same concept without calculating anything useful, I could calculate the solution but not provide the explanation of how I came to the solution, I just did. The solution 1 point, the explanation two points... And it went on... For not doing dull home work I was sent to lowest upper 6th as a punishment and had to work myself up two years just to loose one year... Start in 7th middle upper instead of 8th... And it went on. Completely paralysed, burst into tears, overcomplicating things, thinking to be to dumb for math and logic and science, since I was told maths, physics and chemistry is very complicated, never easy (so must be the solution to every problem given to solve) and I'm to stupid for it. Yep. That's why I fear to take the Mensa test. If it's full of geometrical objects and other things rather than showing ability by detecting patterns in other ways, then I'd fail by becoming paralysed by fear. I know about my high intelligence about age of 30. Now 35. A colleague suddenly laughed at a joke which was so encrypted only intelligent could get it and called out the stupidity of another without his awareness... He outed himself as IQ 130 to make me believe that it's not me whose dumb, it's the others and showed me that it's not maths I'm dumb in, it's anxiety that blocks my ability to solve a problem presented in any other way than before becoming traumatised. 🤯 If there's some High Intelligent member of Mensa who would support me in teaching me all the maths I missed thanks to the phobia and unlock the natural given cognitive ability to get access to the places, where neuroatypical people can converse, I'll be really appreciated. I'm not meant to be a clerk! It's boring! It's daily stress thanks to overdose of stupidity. 😫 Your videos help me a lot.

    What is the definition of a neurodivergent? I have seen people with high IQs with personality disorders who act very much like how you describe neurotypicals, I have seen people with low IQs but also have an abnormal or not typical psychological issue or disorder, it seems like you may be talking about higher levels of consciousness or psychological development
