I don’t know if anyone will be able to relate to this or not but I will put it out there anyway., just in case. As far back as I can remember probably 4 years old, I had relentless questions and it got on a lot of people nerves. By the time I was 6 I had learned that dumbing things down was an effective strategy in getting along better with people in general as well as teachers. This became even more pronounced as I entered puberty and started hanging out with the " In crowd’. I dropped out of school around the 8th grade. But would occasionally go back for a few weeks here and there… I would go to night school and they would put me in a grade that corresponded with my age when I would go back to regular school. I was eventually diagnosed with Aspergers which I still think is bullshit, but I do have some of those traits. Dumbing things down has crippled my communication skills socially, but for some odd reason it doesn’t manifest itself near as much professionally. It is really hard to explain, I will develop a thought or idea in my head and the minute I start to relay my thoughts I have like a mental collapse. This may explain why I sometimes say inappropriate things. I don’t really expect anyone else to adjust to my idiosyncrasies . I am just throwing this out there.
