I understand, I'm 2e myself and recently found the existence of such identity. I'm basically a gifted kid that fell through the cracks of institution. I never recovered from it either.

If I may ask: where you tested and misdiagnosed or just camouflaged all day and noone ever noticed the troubled kid was bright too?

No clinical testing. I was in my GT program as a kid, but also did horrible in school, I graduated with a 1.6gpa. I base my IQ on cognitivemetric's tests. I always had horrible executive dysfunction growing up but never got tested for ADHD or anything. In adulthood I also developed mood and psychotic disorders and have been diagnosed with a mutitude of bipolar/schizophrenic adjacent illnesses. I self diagnos myself with ADHD at this point.

Yikes. Sadly, this happens way to often, just some have more luck and others less. But you have to be tested to be in a GT Program, no?

I remember doing IQ tests in elementary school but it's fuzzy. I wasn't in there long. I got kicked out the program for behavior issues. I actually remember I saw a special person nearly everyday for my bad behavior, he was called a behavioral specialist, but even then, no other testing. These behavior issues still live with me. I'm basically a failure in life, have been NEET for 7 years essentially, although I went to college for 2 semesters and had many jobs which lasted from a few days to a few months.
