Do you ever feel ret*d?

Yes I have felt this way too. I have troubles figuring stuff out and my mom says it's part of Aspergers. Sometimes I can't grasp onto something or understand what I'm reading and I feel so low functioning.

I do feel stupid sometimes for an example: I downloaded a free 30-day trial of a 3D program called 3DS MAX, i thought that it couldn`t be that hard, but when i opened it, i got lost, i did read alot of tutorials but i just couldn`t figiure it out, the people on some forums said it wasn `t that hard or difficult too learn if you just follow`d the tut`s, i did but i just didn`t understand the tutorials.

So yes, i feel stupid sometimes.

I have encountered this many times. and it's VERY frustrating!! They think I'm "way off", weird, or just don't "get it", when really it is they whose knowledge is limited in the area and are simply talking of popular opinions/perceptions not grounded in research and facts.

I feel pretty dumb right now.

I'm trying to learn new tasks at my factory job, and I can't seem to get it.

Then I after a day of bumbling and screwing up at work I drive to school and ace all of my tests and exams without really studying.

Everyone at school thinks I am a near genius.

If only they could see me at work

This is my first post on wrongplanet and yes I feel ret*d alot of the time, especially when I'm around more than 3 people.

For some reason, I can't seem to figure out what I should be doing, or what is appropriate. I can't shake the feeling that somehow I'm on stage and everybody is watching me. However, I can usually figure out social situations if I think about them long enough, but sadly, social interaction just flies right by me most of the time.

I'm not good at making first impressions. Most people tend to think I'm aloof, arrogant, or self-involved, even stupid, unless they know me already and are used to my differences.

All the time. I don't understand how that can be when my IQ is apparently 137.

I feel ret*d right now.
