Things that scream gifted kid burnout
Being on Tumblr, Wattpad. or AO3. especially AO3
Having several unused notebooks, that are empty simply out of fear of "ruining" them.
A caffeine addiction that started with you pulling all nighters that has progressed into you living off of monsters and never sleeping.
Having a praise or degradation kink, I'm sorry dear, I don't make the rules,
Saint Bernard by Lincoln If you wanna listen
Buying books and never reading them and or reading classics just to say you've read them.
Listening to Mitski , specifically Brand New city
All of Bo Burnhams Inside
Being the mom friend (you wanna give people the affection and attention you never received outside of your academic accomplishments.)
Your love language being acts of service
Having an academia playlist but also having a "lets burn the government playlist"
Hozier
Wanting to run away to the woods but also wanting to run away to a big city and cut off everyone from your past.
Having an obsession with office supplies/stationary
Notes app rants
I'm smart but dumb bc Im in all ap classes but the other day I accidentally stole a baby Yoda hand fan because I forgot it was in my hand
I am simultaneously consumed by the fear of being too much while also dreading not being enough
I always feel like I'm teetering on a ledge where I am simultaneously too much and still never enough... for anyone.
I suffer from the loneliness of deeply despising being misunderstood while I push away anyone who tries to understand me.
Living all of my tween and teen years obsessively liking people and getting heart broken over a month’s worth of crushes but never lasting longer than a month in any relationship made me think I’m a weak and stupid attention seeking slut. Turns out I just have ADHD and I hyper focus on people 🫠
Somebody save me from my ELA teacher
So I'm in ELA on Friday, and my ELA teacher is a gifted ELA teacher (although I'm fully convinced that the gifted program is just full of the mentally ill children that just so happen to work fast), and she teaches a lot of damn ages, like I think her youngest group of kids are like 8-9 rn. so basically my hour is right after she gets done with the 4th and 5th graders. the 4th and 5th graders being gen alpha. meaning she spends a good bit of time hearing brainrot because that's all they want to fucking talk about in school (idk how it is for u guys but you cant walk into a classroom for students under 6th grade without hearing brainrot at my school). she decided to ask us if her shirt was 'sigma' told us to not mind if she 'did a little mewing', and when my classmate showed up past the tardy bell, she said and I quote *couch cough* 'i think it's pretty skibidi that you're late [name]' I'm scared The teachers have been infected too We spent the whole class with our ears covered and our headphones on playing a video from a source we had for a fucking essay over and over again on our chromebooks.
