We are not doctors and we just cannot evaluate you.

I doubt it from your posts here.

You seem pretty smart. Schizophrenia causes problems with learning and cognitive decline. I have problems with paying attention/listening.
I mean its technically possible I suppose. But it’s probably not worth worrying about if you have been treated by doctors fairly intensely.

I don’t know what to tell you other than if you suspect it go get a assessment and don’t get medical advice from people who don’t have a clue how to help
Sorry I can’t do much
And even if we knew the truth we can’t help at all you need a therapist and idk what else maybe meds hence why I say nobody here can help none of us can get you the right med or therapy for it
We can all give our opinion but it doesn’t matter at all whatsoever
Sz takes a lot from your cognition, some get along with it some struggle.

I don’t know. Try not to jump to conclusions, though.
I have a tendency to do that myself when I notice a symptom that matches up with a condition.
If you have a suspicion that you do, talk to your doctors. Asked to get tested. Etc.
I think I have a bit of mild hypochondria, myself.

Also I’m diagnosed with keratoconus so it’s not impossible

Autism is classed as an intellectual disability here in the uk, and I’m pretty sure schizophrenia counts too. In fact, it should count more so than autism surely

Congrats if you can do calculus or want to or think you can or have interest. You’re probably smarter than most folks imo. Didn’t you say you were a member of Mensa before?

Some people have uneven profiles in life/learning imo.
Intellectual disability = something like dyslexia? 2e?. It can’t be = low intelligence, as you got into Mensa.

Low IQ is what I mean

I don’t think you have an overall low IQ. I don’t know enough about you to say whether you have an area of comparative cognitive weakness = learning difficulty.

They thought I had intellectual disabled before I got diagnosed ASD, it’s because I had history of being alright at school so they said I couldn’t have it
They thought or I thought I had ADD back in the day. It was popular and a popular diagnosis back then (still is probably). I never got diagnosed, but I think I had mild traits like inattention. I never did well in school until college, I guess. Thank god I was never held back. I graduated at 17 years old in 2007, barely.
You must have a high IQ to get into Mensa
