Apparently, I'm intelligent, but Extremely bad in school. Only me?
It's not that I can't do the things we have to do in school, they're actually quite easy. But no one explains them to me properly, so I feel like I can't do that tasks the way I'm supposed to. My psychologist said that I have a very high IQ, and that I'm very intelligent, however, when I'm in school, I feel like the most unintelligent, incompetent person in the classroom. Every time my class gets a task, my brain completely shuts down, and I end up drawing on the work sheet.
This has caused my grades to drop significantly, and the only time I've really been able to talk in class, was about a novel we had read (because I'm a writer, so I had a lot to say about it).
It makes me so stressed that my grades aren't as high as I know they could be. If I didn't have Asperger's, I'd be able to get almost only straight A's, and I'd be able to show that the tasks we have to do are so easy.
Because of society, I apparently don't fit in, and I feel like people want to discard me. It's like I wasn't made for society, rather the society not being made for me..
The last few weeks, this has really beat me down, because my school is currently doing finals, and I'm to only one who is not. I can't sit in the classroom, I can't join the school's meals without getting a panic attack, and I can't do my homework because it doesn't make sense on the paper.
Is this only me, or does anyone relate?
