This Post Spoke To Me, And If That Doesn’t Explain A Few Things.

This post spoke to me, and if that doesn’t explain a few things.

gifted kid burnout things that no one seems to talk about:

the raw panic of hearing about your potential, positive or negative

a weird brand of imposter syndrome where you genuinely think you’ve fluked your way through every success and you’re gonna be Exposed as a Fraud

never having learned how to study and having no idea where to start now that you need to

reading college level books as a kid but being basically illiterate now

dismissing your struggles as irrelevant because other people have it harder and i should be smart enough to handle this

feeling like you’ve lost all control over your life (maybe manifesting into depression, anxiety and disordered eating in a grasp for control over something)

being unable to decide on a career path because you could have had everything, only to watch those opportunities disappear as you fail to commit

I still don't think I'm over how many times I got told about how much potential I had especially from my mom

A change to this blog

After getting a bunch of spam bots in my DMs, I’m closing non-follower messages to my blog. If you want to send me a message, you will have to follow first. Sorry to have to do this, but the bots are getting more annoying.

I Mean, True.

I mean, true.

They say revenge is a dish best served up cold, and they say revenge is sweet. So basically, revenge is ice cream.

No matter who I ask, this is the consensus. Nothing happened except Raven calling Cinder out on her name. I chuckled at that, but that’s all.

That was…disappointing.
