| Topic | 'I was so gifted as a child, but now I'm depressed and a failure!' |
| Shadow20201 12/29/21 1:07:49 PM #34: | I wish I learned earlier in life that a Gifted diagnosis was more disability than blessing. I never learned to apply myself or study/do homework properly. And the follow up of dealing with crushing disappointment and failure later in life than is developmentally healthy. No one's life goes as expected though so I don't subscribe to the 'Woe is me. I could have been something.' feelings. My oldest daughter could be categorized as gifted, so I can draw on my experiences to help her out and avoid the pitfalls that I couldn't. --- czzzzzzzzzz[]:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::/ 'Sir we are surrounded!'
