I don't know what an "advocative" is and I struggle with speech and being a teacher way out my league. I wouldn't be a great example for people with disabilities as my disability isn't visible nor one people care about. People feel bad for you if you're in a wheelchair or have down syndrome but your like me your just dumb.
If it isn't intelligence and what is it then? It's undeniable that some people are better mentally than others. Like obviously someone with down syndrome is going to have less knowledge then someone without down syndrome. Right?
It takes me a long time to get used to patterns. If I don't completely focus on one thing I forget about it. I get information mixed up easily and I forgot the little details about things. Sometimes I forget what I'm doing all together and I get overwhelmed easily.
Luckily I use my phone a lot to write things down which helps and if I don't do that I just write things down on my body.
Know what you're talking about. There's a guy on YouTube who's in a similar situation to me called Mark Malloy. He talks a lot about IQ maxxing shall we say.
I know what you mean by 'jogging' working out but I already do that and to me it's more of a chore if anything
"What kind video games genre do you play?"
I love world building games like Minecraft, Star Bound and civilizations. I love GTA with a passion. I have a soft spot for shoot 'em ups like Halo or Doom and all it's mods.
It's never really crossed my mind and yes I went to school I did read books with simple words in them but the problem is I never slowly understood them and a dictionary is the pinnacle of a book I can't read.
Know some books can be fun like coffee table books.
Isn't just how everyone watches movies? I have those questions but I don't ask the other people around me. Also thank you but how do I have "raw courage"?
I was a super senior at high school graduating at age 20 and I never went to university or college although I would like to.
"Were the results a surprise?"
Yes they were.
"And most importantly, has it affected your self-esteem at all"
I'm not capable of low self esteem. It's more like I feel shame and anger for it.
"or do you know how little an IQ test actually means?"
I hate people saying this. It's like if you were blind and everyone who could see told you that vision doesn't mean anything. I have seen first hand how IQ affects you. I remember how different I was to the other kids in my school. The way they could just learn things I couldn't. I've experienced how my IQ has singled me out from everyone else. Do you know what it's like to come to terms with the fact that no matter how hard you try you'll always be slower then everyone else? Do you know what it's like to come to terms with the fact that you'll never be a nurse, programmer or go to university/college no matter how hard you try? Do you know what it's like to come to terms with the fact that you'll never develop over the mental age of a teenager? No, you won't so fuck off with this corny bullshit about trying your hardest. Real life is not some cheesy sports movie where you really put your mind to something and overcome all the odds. That doesn't happen in the real world. Kid.
Yeah that's him...
I've been working on my motivation it's hard but I give myself goals. I would love to have a higher IQ somehow.
