Yup. I stopped trying in 6th grade after family issues. The only achievements I have is I learned very good English on my own and I learned how to read myself when I was 3.5 years old.

In school, my entire sense of self-worth was predicated on getting good grades and being intelligent + smugly superior. In retrospect, I was just a boorish narcissist. Everyone had stupidly high expectations for me, but the cracks were already appearing (missing occasional grades, loss of focus, chronic fear of failure <-> self-handicapping etc.)

When I went to university, I met people who were leagues above me. Not only that, they were much nicer, better rounded and all round less autistic. Couple that with the fact that I actually ran into stuff that I didn't understand instantly and the usual perils of being a manchild trying to make it on your own away from over-protective parents. It was all downhill really.

I applied to grad school with the idea of desperately turning everything around. But instead, I had a complete mental breakdown. I lost all faith in my ability, couldn't leave the house. I had visual and tactile hallucinations; I sleep sporadically, despite being constantly tired. I comfort ate excessively, subsisting on takeaways because I was afraid to leave the house.

Naturally, I went to few lectures. I failed a lot of exams. I moved back to my parents afterwards and prepared for the retakes (but struggled to summon the will to study). Eventually, with enough pressure, I scraped through (technically I failled, but the faculty took pity on me).

So now, I have crappy grades, limited knowledge of the material, a complete lack of inclination to do anything, no sense of self-worth and no real idea of what I am supposed to do. Everyone told me that I was smart and would have these amazing jobs and make tons of money. But instead I'm a depressed, unemployed loser. I'm not sure whether I was smart and wasted my potential, or whether I was misguided. I sitll fantasize repeatedly about success and discovering some hidden brilliance that leads me to the greatness I feel cheated out of. And I am horribly bitter/envious of those who did succeed.

All of these described me in high-school and early college, and I'm regularly thankful that I dropped most of those attributes as I grew up and matured. I still read Wikipedia articles and like feeling validated though, but those aren't terrible. Learning to ask for help when I need it and to stop being afraid of not being the best at something were probably the best things I ever did for myself.

My parents and growing up in a small town really fucked me. I got told I was gifted when I was young and they tried to move me to gt classes several times which I refused because it would mean more homework and less time to be a lazy shit and play video games and my parents never forced me into it. But being told I was smart and constantly having high grades gave me a sense of being better than I was, then I managed to graduate in the top of my class and get a full ride scholarship to a uni. Which I promptly failed out of and realized when you're surrounded by backwater idiots and have other people feeding your idea of yourself as a lazy genius it's very easy to feel smart.

A lot of these charts like this and the virgin walk take shit that everyone deals with and makes a big deal out of it. You don't think almost everyone looks for new forms of escapism or feels lack of motivation? You arent some special stereotype and the sooner you realize that youre just another human with strengths and weaknesses the sooner you can work on improving yourself

I was actually classified as gifted in elementary school, I would read DSM and wiki articles but lately I haven't had the motivation to read even, formerly one of my favorite pastimes. Also I'm somewhat shameless around my parents because I know that they know what a huge fuckup I am so I ask them for money and stuff.
