Psychology of Everyday Life: I didn't get into a top school. Am I less of a person? What is wrong with me psychologically? Is something psychologically wrong with me? Sometimes I feel nothing at all. Does that make me a sociopath? Psychology of Everyday Life: How do I think less and act more? I often don't think about how my actions affect others. Is something wrong with me? I became a manipulative CEO. How to be normal again? Am I a sociopath? Is it true that people with higher than average intelligence (in any particular domain) tend to have more addictive personalities, or higher rates of mental issues/disorders? I'm 24, I feel like I'm getting dumber. it's like I'm having only half a brain and I can't focus. What's happening with me? I don't think I'm a smart person. Why do so many other people call me intelligent when really I'm not? Are they confused? Wishful thinking? Do people live in different mental models of the physical world? How do I become less conscious of myself around other people? Why do our personalities/behaviors change with different people? Whenever I encounter people of higher status/authority, I feel low. I feel different from normal people, I feel I am stupid. How can I change? Does high intelligence cause some people to be less empathetic? Why do I feel like people are judging me in social situations? Where can I explain my mental disorder to other people? I don't have a social personality, social interactions are hard. Can you relate to that? Why do I think like I have high self-esteem, but act like I have low self-esteem? I'm 33 and diagnosed with depression. I don't like my work and I have realised that I made the wrong choices concerning my studies. I too realised (under professional psychologist surveillance) that I am a High Potential Adult with a IQ of 147 and a high emotional level. I'm married, I have two wonderful childrens and a house to pay for. I feel that I'm living a wrong life in the sense that the situation I am in, does not fit me at all other than the fact that I deeply love my family. Did someone ever succeed at changing their life with a similar kind of situation? I feel like I'm constantly on the edge of a mental breakdown into insanity. What do I do? I think I am a psychopath because I can turn emotions on and off. Does it mean that I am split mind? I'm 20 and I have started noticing loss of my cognitive abilities at such a young age . Is it even true or its just a psychological phenomena? I am experiencing cognitive dissonance regarding my perceived intellectual limits. My IQ is 104. I feel like I'm just smart enough to realize I've reached my capacity, but I cannot surpass it. What do I do? Do I have to be like my peers all the time? Why am I so bothered when people label other people sociopaths/psychopaths? I don't think I'll ever like myself because I'm always seeking validation from others. What can I do about this? I don't understand the basic concepts of daily life. I am 23 now. Do I have a mental disorder? How do I make myself understand that there is more to life than just money and intelligence? Do sociopaths or psychopaths ever feel self-conscious?
