I was looking up some stuff about autism as dramanauts tend to do.
I came across some data about how highly gifted autisms can often have slow processing speed and very high verbal memory and that's literally me. ( I have improved processing speed by training it )
I have verbal reasoning skills so high I did the https://humanbenchmark.com/tests/verbal-memory verbal memory test and my score came out higher than 100% after I got over my anxiety issues and improved my focus ability.
It might also explain why people and even I had such an extremely hard time putting myself in a box, because it would mean I am twice exceptional, I am both unique in the way gifted people are unique, and I am also unique in the way r-slurred people are unique, which takes me two standard deviations away from common humanity.
Any tips for someone like me who has just diagnosed themselves with being twice exceptional during adulthood?
What things can I do that would help me improve my quality of life and be able to better function with other people.
Thank you.

Stop caring about stupid shit like this and work on actually achieving something with your life. Having a high score in some potential ability doesn't really mean anything, if you're actually gifted you'll be able to turn those abilities into impressive achievements.

I used my abilities to get fit enough that now the average looking woman near my age has a 50-50 chance of turning to look my way.
What do next?

Also wrong.
That's how you fail you're children.
Most abilities especially in a high branch society don't have any noticeable useful output in the begging or even in the mid term.
You have to first encourage and support the young ones for moving in the right direction instead of getting the desired gains from the very beginning.

Nah it's setting kids up for failure when you tell them they're gifted and let them coast on that in life. It's helpful but it's not going to get you anywhere on its own.
Aren't you an adult or nearly an adult? The time for honing potential skills is over, it's time to start showing some results in life. The ship has sailed on the beginning, you're already in the mid-term.

Honestly, yeah. I was a "gifted" child and aced all my tests and still wound up a dramneurodivergent in the end. My parents have a lot to answer for. If only they'd locked me in the closet for longer maybe I'd have built up real grit.

@gigachad_brony how did you improve your focus?

Lots of meditation, destimulation, learning to be aware again of my surroundings and the passage of time biologically, and curing my neurosis and overcoming half to 80% of my anxiety issues.

mogged me! was that on your first try, or did you redo it to buff your stats and impress rslurs on the internet?

that was the first time. i guess you could practice it, but i don't care that much.
i think my brain is mostly storing the basic shape and sound of the word without the meaning, so similar looking and sounding words screwed me up. i think my third mistake was some bullshit word that started with q and since there's only so many words that start with q i just assumed i'd seen it before

That's still within the chart tracing range though. I got 100%+ . However I wouldn't be surprised if you too could get over 300 words with practice.

I know the Boston story.
If they say they went to Harvard then they are obnoxious stuck ups who keep telling everyone about being in Harvard.
If they say they went to Boston they are trying to lure you into asking them where exactly in Boston after which they have to answer Harvard.
There is no winning move.

Let's say, hypothetically, you've been a naughty child even, ok, and if you were a naughty child you would also be waging war on Christmas? Then hypothetically speaking you would be on my little Naughty List. Now let's say that you're also a non-Christian child, now that we've established you're both a bad child and non-Christian child, then I believe you'd agree with me when I say that you deserve a stocking full of coal, am I not correct? A bad child deserves a stocking full of coal and as I am Father Christmas, you are my child, so I am the one who must provide punishment.
