Is it normal i hate that i'm stupid?

I get so depressed when I notice I'm dumb. Some dumb people dont see it in themselves, others are in denial, but for me, I'm so honest that I'm not gonna deny yeah I'm slow. The worse is when it's around family since you're gonna be around them a lot, they look at you and say oh that's the slow cousin or something. It really really sucks. This phrase is pretty much true when they say "Life is hard, but it's harder if you're dumb", so true. Personally, I know things but it takes a while to process it right on the spot. I have too many brain farts to just let it be considered "it's just a brain fart." However, sometimes I wonder how dumb I am? That I don't think it's regular people dumb but perhaps mentally challenged? I don't know...it's hard for me to understand since I used to go to a neurology center when I was younger, but I'm normal nothing medically abnormal of me but I still think hey I probably am mentally challenged or something related. If yeah then okay it's done, if not then I just don't know what to do wih myself.

    The dummest people are those who are dumb and think they're inteligent. So, you recognizing you're dumb makes you way more inteligent than a LOT of people...

    Starting with this idea you might find interesting too search for what are you capable of.

    You may or may not be dumb, but you really don't seem all that unintelligent to me from reading your post.

    You don't seem mentally challenged to me. There are ways for anyone to get a bit sharper, though. The brain is a muscle. If you use it, it gets stronger.

    Truly stupid ppeople aren`t really aware of being stupid, & even if they are, they don`t care.

    This may seem like a handsome person telling a normal person it isn't as good as it seems to be handsome but heres my 2 cents. I have an I.Q. around 140. Being smarter, a lot is expected of me. This school year I am getting about 6 hours of sleep a night from zero hour and ap classes and everything else like music rehearsals. It sucks but doing anything less would make me look very bad. My point is it doesnt really matter if you aren't a scholar but if you are an agreeable and cheery person people will want to be around you and you can enjoy yourself. People won't have as many expectations for you that you feel you need to follow. For example I would feel guilty if I didn't pursue a career that used my intellect to help others and did something else like become a musician. I probably came off as a tool but be happy and don't worry too much about it! I enjoy being around people of all intellects from mentally retarded to genius as long as they are happy and nice people.

    you are not dumb you need a background,experiences,Brain training..my advice meet people (not dumb ones) and try to have a serious conversation about anything if you have not dumb friends you will not be dumb try to faces it not accept it... try to make conversations with people older ,same-age or even your parents conversation about anything any thing but something make sense and something they like to talk about..as much u deal with more things as much u have more experiences...when you didn't know something google it or ask someone...this is all i can say try to figure out everything you are not dumb at all don't be dumb and say ur dumb this is like advice for little brother..!

    It's normal, but here's the thing. You really don't appear to be unintelligent, and as long as you present yourself the same way you did in this post you'll get somewhere in life. Don't give in to the idea you're abnormal and stupid and will always be that way, because you will in that case.

    Yeah.

    We all hate feeling inadequate. We want to be clever and pretty and live exciting lives and be happy. We don't want to be stupid and ugly and live boring lives and be depressed.

    So yes. You hate feeling stupid because you don't want to be stupid - it makes total sense :)
