I agree that you are highly intelligent and can deal with multiple topics on a deep level. But I question that this is all AOK, because you also expressed considerable suffering. Pressured thinking, and your self image is suffering. Also, the jealousy that is more than a woman would tolerate for long. That is a symptom of insecurity. Also relationships with people in general. I share in your frustration that most people are way too shallow for your level of thinking. Yet the aloofness is also an indicator of inner problems. Some people who are superior, really superior, are drawn to people instead of repeled, and become surgeons, psychologists, college professors, and such.

As you're considering going into social sciences, dealing with people closely, I think it would be essential to go have yourself tested psychologically, and get into therapy for some duration. As you know, all psychoanalysts are required to have their own analysis. It's important to investigate your own mind first, because significant neuroses can create serious problems of countertransference in your clients. Wheeler,the world desperately needs more people in the social sciences, and I hope you can see your way there.
