Everyone thinks I'm a dummy

Do I really come off as unintelligent? Because my writing or the content? I know I’m not a genius but I can’t help the feeling that the forum sees me as the village idiot :sob:

You might be in a low mood right now because what you said is not true.

You are a valued member of this community.

I don’t find you stupid and truthfully I get this feeling too a lot

A lot of people say I’m very smart yet I don’t see it I’ve had pharmacists say i know more about meds than them and I was at a “ask anything fishing and hunting” convention and the GAME WARDEN the person who enforced the rules says i know more about the rules that are gonna be voted on

Moral of what Im saying is sometimes people underestimate themselves

With that being said I think your smart

You don’t. You’re obviously struggling with aspects of your illness, but you don’t sound unintelligent when posting about your issues.

:hugs:

You don’t come across as being unintelligent @signless
On the contrary, you come across as being a very smart guy

Sometimes I feel I make people uncomfortable with my posts. I feel I come across as condescending or arrogant. It eats away at my soul.

I don’t know you so well @AKendrick but you don’t seem dumb at all. Quite the opposite.

I have never thought you a village idiot

Try not to beat yourself up too much

Know it comes from a good place but not the healthiest way to your mind and confidence

You’ve always come off as pretty sharp to me. This illness is tough man.

This isnt a Mensa forum. This place for me is to become as stable as I can. And then recover as much as I can for me. I see you heading in the right direction wanting and needing stability and recovery.

I feel dumb, but was told I was smart or bright. I’m not a genius and I feel like I missed a lot of milestones in life due to schizophrenia.

Those who are truly dumb have no idea that they are.
