@redsad I was in it in like... 2023? The name was Talented and Gifted instead of the other way around so it might be a different thing, but I remember everybody there being super pretentious and rude! I had a tendency to remember the new stuff enough to get good grades, but really old stuff would be gone. I was called many names, and I remember getting in trouble for quitting without actually quitting because I didn't wanna talk to the teacher

@krutonium @redsad good girl for saying so

the high functioning part maybe not so much but the rest...
story time, so I had straight A's pretty much all through school until my junior year, when I tested super well and got into AP classes for English, History and Philosophy... and then failed all three of them
I was smart enough to pass the entrance exams but the classes themselves and the insane amount of reading and homework broke my brain. the English teacher really hated me. at one point she told my mom, "that girl needs therapy." yeah no shit, lady. I had undiagnosed ADHD🤨

I'm also autistic, probably (self diagnosed, no interest in getting myself put on a list by RFK Jr)

@redsad dang.... I hope things are better for you now!
On an unrelated note.... when I saw "that girl needs therapy" my first thought was "Frontier Psychiatrist".
Sorry

Doing just fine to be honest. -

@redsad
I got overwhelmed tooschool, college, uni
my comic book art wasn't considered proper art
my game coding wasn't bankable IT like spreadsheets and databases
I worked at a games company at uni, draining my time, only to see it fold
nobody ever saw my potential
plus I had dysphoria and no idea about trans people. still carrying the anxiety from that
and several other medical conditions
society really undervalues and wastes people
and I constantly feel like a failure
but I won't give up, my epic indie game will be released eventually
you aren't a failure either, people don't understand certain kinds of people and their talents
but I see you
