Yip, so true. According to mine I am also supposed to be a gifted genius, but I'm a social and societal idiot. The only thing I can do well is my work, I suck at everything else. I found that nobody likes a smart-***** either, people have genuine hatred for you, because you often correct them or something like that. I want to ask you guys, is there a correlation between IQ and occurrence of mental disorders or cases of autism spectrum disorder?
