There is information as to what gifted adults may experience or books that can be read about a gifted adults, but I could not find any blogs, chatrooms, or useful information on the gifted adult. Does anyone have any information?

Most of them would have already developed their talent and as they become adults they will identify with others who have similar careers, hobbies, political views, etc., instead of being gifted.
