<Snipped quote by DarkwolfX37>
I think I get the wanting to be right thing with the problems that my father and I have. He is always trying to throw me down saying that he is alwars right, and when is wrong he results to physical intimidation. Despite calling me smart...which I don't feel like...though he soon realized this recently and is going to a councilor. He is a veteran after all. probabaly didn't accept that he had post traumaitc stress disorder. Though my dad's side has a tendency to not accept truths about ourselves...like my slowly thinking that i may have Asperge Syndrome...
Oh. I'm sorry, dude. I hope things get better.
I know it's hard to consider oneself smart or intelligent, but the important part isn't to convince yourself of it, it's to accept that whatever the case is, is. Who cares if you're smart or not? What does it matter if you're dumb or smart or anything else? You're you. Those things only matter if you compare yourself to others.
I'm glad he's trying to get help.
So get tested for it. Hell, I've got Asperger's/Autism Spectrum Disorder, it's nothing to feel bad about or worry about. But if you're worried about it, the first step to finding ways around it is finding out if you have it.
