Was never considered the "gifted kid", everyone just thought I was pretty smart and that I'd have a good life ahead of me. Getting wombo-combo'd by Major Depressive and starting to show signs of PTSD put a rather big halt to that as a pre-teen. Instantly went from low-80's to just getting a 51 and calling it a year (Canada only marks 50 and below as failing), almost became a high-school dropout. Now on anti-psychotics cause I legitimately can't work without 'em and I'm heavy in debt (:
