I can only speak from personal experiences. (Disclaimer: If you think about getting help, then trust that instinct and do it as soon as possible.) My family never really fits in although we look normal; we have gifted issues individually, as a couple, parent to child and as a family. That said, we use the truth (You have to be honest when you are not fitting in.) and logic to guide us through it; also, we share our experiences and do not try to hide it, say, if there is a meltdown from being so sensitive and intense. When you think and act differently than the norm, you have to be comfortable with yourself. You have to find the adages that apply to you. Our extreme mental curiousity is what drives us and helps to make it okay. We are living in a multiverse, maybe, so it is an incredible place to be for a gifted person. Focus on the interests that you have naturally and see if that brings happiness, peace and joy. Observe all of the different human behaviors. Don't let anyone intentionally hurt you. Stand up for yourself. Make changes until you find the group, the school, the work, etc., that suits you. The great thing about being smart is that you can figure it out. Explaining to others may not work. They may not understand, feel jealous, take it the wrong way, twist your words, etc. If you need for them to understand giftedness, refer them to the web where there is endless info. in English from the USA, the UK and Australia to start. Good Luck!
