Wow, thanks for the insights. So AAC, impostor syndrome doesn't just affect people who have never been identified? That's both interesting and appalling at the same time. People need to be educated on the changes that gifted people could implement if allowed to grow to their true potential.

frannieandejsmom, there was no gifted programs when I was at school in England either so I wouldn't know one way or another. People seem to think I'm intelligent but I highly doubt I'm gifted. I can't think of any stand-out achievements at school. In fact I was just lazy!
