5 struggles highly intelligent people have to deal with

Being too hard on themselves

Highly intelligent people tend to be really critical of everything they do, create or make. It makes being an artist especially difficult. They go over and over and check everything more closely than anyone else would and expect so much from themselves.

Having anxiety problems

It's a real problem. Because they're slightly more self aware , and it's easier to feel anxious about their lives, problems, and the problems of everything around them. Sometimes it's necessary to relax and just watch some funny flick or cute cats.

Making friends is a hard task

When most people aren't that smart, it can be hard to identify people you can actually spend time with. Of course, it's always a two way street. They may not like you and that frienship may not last that long.

No one understanding your jokes

When you're really smart no one actually gets your sense of humor. In a world full of idiotic and brainharmin entertainment, no one's going to get that special nerdy humor.

Being ignored

World is full of people who listen to their guts and not their brains, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Sure, facts of highly intelligent people are fine and good, but other people principles, baseless as they may be, are what guides them and points them in their life. Prepare for ignor games.
