clearaflagrantj 07/30/19 11:58:54 AM #1:	I feel like if I was able to push myself or had an opportunity to challenge myself I'd go on and do some great things but currently I'm in a position where I absolutely hate the work I have experience in, I've been fired and am now unemployed, and I've squandered any purpose I could have found. The only time I felt anything in life was back in college when I was learning math that actually challenged me but the real world is just a tangled mess of networking and kissing ass and I have no desire to navigate that jungle. It's like the world is letting me rot and die and I'm beginning to accept it. <cite>clearaflagrantj posted [p:925380884] in I think I ...

I know it's a cliche that people insist they're smarter than they actually are but I am fairly intelligent, at least math-wise, I'm not good at words and stuff.

Standardized tests are literally built to favor middle class white people and its taken you until now to realize how wholly unexceptional you are. The only reason youve made it this far in life unscathed is because of the way you look. Join a union, fight for the rights of workers, make use of your privilege and place in our capitalist structure.

Plus I have zero income so I can't afford therapy/prescription drugs I'll just let the mental illness fester and eventually destroy me. i just had to buy my prescription off-insurance (doesnt kick in on my new job til next month) and it was relatively cheap. Like $25 for a month supply just schedule a preventive appointment (you almost certainly get those yearly with your insurance) and tell your doctor you feel bad all the time and theyll prescribe you anti-depressants.

konokonohamaru 07/30/19 5:36:45 PM #41:	The first thing is to realize that test scores mean nothing once you're out of school. Success is more about having the trust of your coworkers so work to build that trust. Yeah, it seems like a shitty system but think of it this way: these people don't know you. They don't know if you're competent and they don't know if you'll have their back. They may be as afraid of you as you may be afraid of them, so show them there's nothing to fear. Also sounds like you hated your field. I can relate. Maybe it's time to get retrained?

You probably are more intelligent than the average person in terms of the general population. The issue is that at this level of education and for the field, you might be average (or even if you are more intelligent than your peers academically, there seems to be so many other aspects you need to improve to push ahead of the pack). As callous as this seems, as a doctor, its staggering to see exactly how stupid the general population is and how insanely intelligent some of my colleagues are. I think Im probably top 3 in terms of medical knowledge and and self study as far as residents in my program, but I can be a little lazy and it pushes me so far back behind those with excellent drives and average intelligent for a resident/physician. --- https://imgur.com/SGkkbF0 <cite>MrPeppers posted [p:925401520] in I think I ...
