Hi, I'm new to the forum. I've been browsing the net for information on gifted adults and have been having a time finding it. 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?

I have. It's actually the place I started. I've mostly found articles about children or parents of gifted children. It is very well possible that I just didnt look deep enough.
Isn't MENSA for gifted adults? But I'd imagine most gifted adults don't really think about their "giftedness" anymore. 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.
