This is not a joke.
My mom was devastated. 6 kids and impoverished living in the ghettos of the hardline Eastern Bloc Communists.
What worse news can a mother weighing 80 pounds (5'3", from malnutrition) can get after early losing another baby and now this one, being born at 1.8 kilos (4.4 pounds) with undeveloped lungs and who would pass out at random times during the day and each time my mom thought I had died.
My mom was a peasant, only 8 grades so she didn't understand much although she's a successful business woman now with never having taken a single English class or a single college course (she makes $250K per year but my parents never gave me a dime for gas or school books or anything, tough luck). God is good.
So my mom panicked and went to a special Eastern European doctor who specialized in Experimental nutropic drugs which were designed to boost IQ's for retards such as myself.
Being desperate my mom told them to use me as a guinea pig although I think the doctors were stupid and misdiagnosed me as I knew how to follow complex instructions at 14 months old. Given this was after then series of injections.
My parents would leave me alone regularly (that was the custom) at 14 months which was common cause they had to work and they would tell me to get out of bed, take my pants off, remove my cotton diapers which were hard to take off and put back on cause there was a Barbie pin, pull a heavy metal poop bucket from underneath the bead, take a fat dump, put the lid back on and out it back under the bed, get dressed and get and in bed and wait for them to get home.
Naturally my parents never expected a kid who could barely walk to follow so many instructions and do it right so they were shocked the first time when they came home and room smelled like baby turd. But they checked me and I was ok. They then looked under the bed and they saw the metal pot but the lid was off (there's the regard part that never went away) and inside the pot, which I had put under the bed as instructed was my big turd any 14 month old would be proud of.
From that day on I never asked to go potty, I never pooped myself and I would be left alone and would always do my business like a grown up those doctors were stupid cause it takes a high IQ for such a small child to follow so many instructions and do them without flaw an in order.
So what happened, this experimental Eastern European doctor shot me up with what was supposed to be a series of 10 injections to boost my IQ. Nobody to this day know what they put in me. But the needle was so big and I was so small and malnourished that the needles would leave massive scar tissues in my right upper leg and the pain was excruciating. I would scream the whole time from the pain but my mom didn't want a retarded kid and frankly I didn't wanna be a retard either.
By the 9th shot of the 10shot series a hole, the size of a gold ball , like a Cyst developed in my right thigh and I could no longer take the pain so I never go the 10th shot.
Needless to say, I had a job since I was 13 cause we were poor for a few years due to being fresh off the bost and supporting 6 kids but my parents eventually were well off. Even though I would work nearly 30 hours per week and sometimes even play sports like wrestling and hating school I was always in honors or AP courses and in math and science especially I always set the curve, no, I blew away the curve 90% of the time and I rarely took my books home since I had No time to study anyway.
My mom would regularly ask me if I was still in high-school because I never brought books home and never studied. A question I never really understood, why would I just drop out? Maybe she needed a few smart shots herself. Lol
So my question is this - I am sometimes really smart and with no effort. But friends I've knows for years tell me sometimes that I'm retarded. They say: "you're the smartest Retard I've ever met."
Like I get lost in people's houses. I went to the same college for years but never knew how to get to my classes. I couldn't remember the months of the year randomly until I was about 30 and even now I have to say them in order to figure out which months is what.
I drove around for like 2 years looking for the information superhighway and finally one day in the library I saw a computer and it had a note on it: information superhighway. So I think I was the last person on earth to figure out what the Internet was. I thought they were building a high tech super freeway to connect the continents. That's actually a great idea.
When I'm at a restaurant and I go to the restroom I take my 3 year old daughter with me cause somehow she knows exactly the way back to our table. Without her I always end up in the kitchen or In a closet or the alley. I don't hide these problems and I'm not embarrassed, this is who I am but it's so frustrating cause I can't fix them.
I can't remember words to any songs, none. If you offered me $1 million to recite half of just one song which I've heard 1,000 times I couldn't do it. I cant remember even my mom's birthdate which hurts me a lot but i look at 14 digit account numbers Or My kids social numbers or driver's license numbers and they're burned in my mind like a Picture forever. My 3 year old daughter would often give me directions home if I got lost or if there was a detour. I almost died once cause of a flash flood and they put up a detour sign and even though I was no more than 2 miles from my house I didn't know how to get home other than that street so I drove through on the edge not realizing there was a 3 foot deep canal there, and my Honda accord sunk neck deep. I barely got out and a truck pulled up and pulled me out and thank God that Honda started right up.
There's so many of these examples and they're literally literally retarded, and I can't fix them but I've had professor and professor tell me that the more complex the material the easier it seems it is for me, some would give me separate tests to challenge me which would piss me off cause I only cared about blowing away the curve) so that's a similar quality of an idiot savant.
So lets be honest here - I'm really smart at some things that most people think are really complicated yet there's things that literally a 3 year old is smarter than me.
So be honest with me - do any of you know what this is, is there a cure, what causes it, most of all I wanna know how much of me is retarded or idiot and how much of me is Savant or normal which doesn't sound much better frankly.
Oh I have two BS degrees one in economics and one in finance with a cumulative of 3.8 and I did it all with no books, full time jobs, almost always taking 20 credits and never putting school first as I always felt school was for retards. I don't know why - I just hated college cause I always felt it stole something from my mind but couldn't figure out what. I think ,y imagination and intellectual honesty but I don't prove it.
Oh, I just launched a retarded coin (Nuggests, and of course it didn't go well, I should have had my 3 year old help me out) - first retarded coin ever - Nuggets, in case you want to own the first ever such coin. You don't have to be retarded to mine it, it's for everyone. For crying outloud, mine it for pity, my 3 year old has to drive me home cause I missed my 10th injection. Thanks a lot mom!
By the way, everything in this story is 100% true, I'm not kidding around but I've never talked about it cause it's embarrassing but since people see me as an outcast just cause I can't program and I trusted people and I'm naive then hey, why not get some honest answers for a question I've had a long time on my mind.
Thank you for any input you may have, good or bad.
What say you?
