Higher the IQ, the deeper the introspection and a broader awareness and understanding of the world around us. Grist for the melancholy temperaments.

So that's why I don't understand myself or "the" world around us!
And me thinking it was that I am, and the world around me is, constantly changing. But I'm just too shallow.
It's true I probably don't have melancholic depression (just the BP reactive melancholy), just the atypical one.
