No, I'm pretty special. My IQ is clinically tested in the 99th percentile and schizophrenia likewise only manifests in 1% of the population. I'm a statistical outlier in those ways. I think the problem is people thinking I'm more "special" than I am, if you gather my meaning. Because of my disorder I often take on the mannerisms of a retarded person and my thought patters are difficult to communicate effectively, leading others to assume that I'm simple-minded.

I don't, thank you. You're the one who used the word "special." I merely quantified my "specialness" for you. You have to admit that it's pretty rare for two 1% metrics to overlap. My psychiatrists and psychologists always remark on the fact.

They absolutely do mean something, but you're making the mistake of thinking IQ is supposed to be entirely heritable or to make you good at things beyond the types of problems presented in the tests. Think about it this way, if you aren't from the culture the test is made for, you probably will need to adjust to perform well in it despite how you may score on a test tailored to your native culture.

The inborn component of intelligence is referred to as "g" and has been for like 50 years. IQ is just a measure of where you're at the day you take the test and can change with changes in lifestyle. Thing is, when you measure people at 18 or so, the ones with higher IQs make more money and overall have better lives (keeping in mind the idea of statistical significance, which means these results are valid despite the top 0.1% not making 1000x as much money as everyone else just to fit the curve). Measuring at a young age is a lot less meaningful and so people jump on the whole concept.

OP is a total faggot.

We do know around 3 other "schizos" who pull this type of shit, though. Since the illness is the only interesting aspect of their personality, they always go around doing stupid crap and justifying themselves because muh schizo, look at me, look at me! I'm in so much pain! They're nothing but cringeworthy divas completely cucked by the stereotype of the romantic, bohemian artist who must suffer because of their superior capacity to feel or think, but in truth they possess no such superiority. If they were truly sensitive they would feel just how pathetic they are to everyone else, and if they had any intelligence they would realize that leeching off of schizophrenia does not constitute a real personality.

At least you are aware you didn't.
It's hard to fully grasp complex concepts until you manipulate them concretely, sometimes the theoretical a priori knowledge needs to be complete by an empirical knowledge. Whatever it takes to understand and master.

I am so depressed that the longer I am away from studying at University the more stupider I will become. I work in a office where if I wanted to I could a program that could put me out of a job and talk to boring people about yesterdays episode of The Bachelorette. I really don't know what to do with myself careerwise but god knows it isnt in an office. In the mean time i am trying to find volunteer work. What else can I do lit. also what do you guys do for hobbies?

>I am so depressed that the longer I am away from studying at University the more stupider I will become. I graduated with a first and now I work in a boring repetitive office job where if I wanted to, I could code a program that could put me out of work. Everyone in my office have middle class aspirations and all they want to talk about is yesterdays episode of The Bachelorette or getting a mortgage. The girl in the cubicle next me is trying to flirt with me and wanting recommendations about books since she knows I have an english degree but I know from looking at her facebook her favourites include hunger games and twilight. Its intellectual pergatory, I really don't know what to do with myself careerwise but god knows it isnt in an office. I've always wanted to be a combat photographer working on the frontlines of wars. anyway in the mean time i am trying to find volunteer work.

Yeah, telling people that you have schizophrenia is a great way for them to clobber you with half-baked stereotypes. Just look at this thread. About a dozen anons jumped down my throat accusing me of all sorts of BS just for stating matter of factly that I'm schizo.

teens may 'feign' having clinical depression or anxiety: it is simple to do this when you focus intensely for too long on traits common to all of us because it grabs others' attention.
however. it is near impossible to 'fake' schizophrenia or OCD and ever be taken seriously.
i have never seen people do this 'tumblr' shit w/ schizophrenia.
are you calling OP underage b&? are you calling into question his admittance of schizophrenia when they say he was clinically diagnosed?

You're a fucking idiot. People with higher IQs are supposedly at a lower risk of developing schizophrenia among those with a family history, but that's it, it's just a risk probability. It doesn't mean that you're some kind of superman for overcoming the odds. Which you didn't anyway, because you're a thick, pompous motherfucker the likes of which there are millions.

basically a faggot in every sense of the world
