Most of you guys are under the age of 20. Try to treat your depression while you still can. Apparently prolonged depression literally destroys the parts of your brain responsible for emotions and memory.
What clowns are handing out scholarships to 5 year olds?

Getting a scholarship to a tard school isn't something to brag about

Happened to me, man. At least, that's what my mom tells me. Maybe she paid for private schooling, but I come from a poor family.
>treat depression
best method is hanging yourself

I used to win math competitions and skipped a couple of grades in elementary and high school... I don't know what the fuck happened to me. Became a NEET in uni and never went back
I don't think I was ever as smart as you, but I can relate to the brain fog. I can barely form a complete thought and I can't get anything done. I think constant stress due to chronic procrastination and lack of sleep during high school and uni (before I promptly dropped out) may have damaged my brain, or at the very least instilled very bad habits that I can't seem to break

>tfw uni killed my spirit and burnt out my programming abilities
I'm going to fix myself though. I've hit rock bottom and finally decided its time to change, taking baby steps to becoming a Chad. We're all gonna make it Robros

Might wanna take back the smart part, too. I'm not smart, now.
Besides, even if I was smart, is that really something to envy? Intelligence is a tool; it's not something that is inherently a good quality. You could be the smartest guy on the planet, but if you lock yourself in your room and drink all day, then what has that intelligence done for you?
Now, being happy is something you can envy.
I would rather be a happy retard, than a depressed genius. Instead I'm now just a depressed retard.
Every dumbass thinks doing well in a test as a kid meant they were a genius who is only held back due to muh depression. News flash you guys were always dumbasses, not edgy sanic geniuses held back by normie induced neet depression. Take some responsibility for yourself and stop thinking doing well on a test when you were six meant shit. Every fucking aspie neet loser I've met is convinced they're a genius with lost potential fucking KEK
>>38905837
ummmm being smart under 10 doesnt mean much.
I was like you, anon, except I stayed on track. I have had very high standardized test scores all through my childhood and high school, and I got a 2300 on my SAT. I go to a top 20 college now.
You aren't missing much. Aside from the high starting salaries that kids at schools like this receive, it doesn't guarantee you very much at all. It isn't a ticket to a gf, and it most certainly isn't a ticket to happiness. The stress that I put on myself to keep myself from derailing is making me miserable.

>Every dumbass thinks doing well in a test as a kid meant they were a genius
I never said I was smart. I did well in school, but that was about it. I wouldn't say I'm a genius, or that I ever was. If I actually were a genius as a kid, I would have taken more interest in my school work. Instead, I was just interested in VIDEO GAMES.
>Take some responsibility for yourself
I take responsibility for it. Who else would I blame for my life? The Jews?
>stop thinking doing well on a test when you were six meant shit
Well, I didn't "do well" on a test when I was six. I "did better than 99% of people" on many tests over the course of my childhood. But you are right -- it didn't mean shit. Even retards who have failed every test in their life are happier than me. I guess I'm the retard.
>Every fucking aspie neet loser I've met is convinced they're a genius with lost potential fucking
I don't need "convincing" of this. I only found out recently that I even went to a private school. I literally had no idea until I asked my mom why I changed schools. No one at school ever mentioned it was a private school. Again, I'm not saying I'm a genius... but I DID get free schooling. I definitely wasn't stupid.
Anyway, don't most people have lost potential?
