binghsien asked: Thanks for writing the exgifted stuff. I... have a similar history but no drop in IQ, it turns out what's wrong with me doesn't lower my ability to take tests. It's nice to see some of that stuff articulated. -- Also, my thoughts are with you and your dad. Let us know if we can help. <3

I didn’t think I had a drop in IQ until I …accidentally found out that this IQ test a guy told me I’d “done really well” on turned out to be… a very different definition of “done really well” than the one I’d turned out to expect.  I actually have a post in my drafts folder about that now.  At this point I figure I don’t even know what my IQ would be if it were tested, because I obviously can’t predict it based on… anything at all.  And I’m very glad that what I’ve written has been useful in some way, IQ drop or no IQ drop, because it’s a whole experience, not a one piece of the experience, thing.  (Sorry, no sleep, brain scrambled.)  Thank you for the thoughts.  Everything helps.
