Objectively speaking I probably am what would be considered intelligent. I'm not overly educated even by a stretch.

When I'm depressed I feel very stupid and when elevated I think I'm a genius. When I'm depressed my mind is slow, when elevated my mind is quicker and faster to process. There is truth in it.

I do not believe my BP determined my intelligence, but while manic I have thought the doctors and family/friends mistake genius for madness.
