I was struggling with boredom at work and that eventually led me to articles about problems that gifted adults often experience at work. I read Gifted Workers: Hitting the Target and Gifted Grownups. I got reacquainted with my old identity that had gotten buried deep down.
Now I have words again for my experience, but I don't know what to do with it. The problems gifted people face don't stop when they get out of school, but the support structures seemingly disappear. I don't even know how to discuss what I'm going through with people outside of my family without sounding arrogant.
So I'm here trying to get some ideas.
Are there other active communities for gifted people online (not Facebook)?
Is there any hope of finding a therapist/counselor that understands gifted adults in Indiana? Should I just consider remote sessions?
How do I find motivation when I'm buried in existential boredom?
How do you cope?
