When I was a kid, I was diagnosed with some unspecified “learning disability.” No details beyond that were ever provided. Funny thing is, I also tested with a 139 IQ, and went on to get a master’s degree. Teachers in school and peers in school and workplace frequently would treat me like an idiot. The thing with me is, I’m plenty intelligent, but do not process or prioritize things the same way others do. Sadly, it’s not enough for people that I deliver results. They can’t get around the fact that I don’t think the same way they do. When I was a teenager, I found myself wondering if I was a little prescient, because I could more often than not anticipate events before they occur. I finally figured out, it’s not a supernatural ability, it’s just that I am more perceptive than most people, and put information together in ways that escape others. Unfortunately for me, since others don’t follow my logic, I get ignored, and frequently written off as stupid. It’s been called the Cassandra Complex, after a character in Greek mythology who is given the power of prescience, then cursed to never be believed. What can I say? It’s been a weird life.
