Everyone is so much more intelligent than me

Treat yourself with yourself with compassion. Degrading and berating yourself will not help you to recover.

Yes, you’re right. I am only pointing out the clear faults in myself.

I can identify with you. When I was young my family considered me to be very bright, but over the years I've accumulated mental health problems that just seems to have fried my brain and now I can barely concentrate on anything. Everyone expected me to make something of myself but now I'm 27 and my life is going nowhere.
At least you're getting the help you need. It might be worth talking to your psychiatrist about the dosage of the medication.

Everyone has faults. And I don't think memory issues mean you are less intelligent, you just have to do things differently to how you used to do things.

My whole life is a lie. I was relatively intelligent as a youngster, and seemed to be close to or superseding the class at school. Now though, I struggle to remember simple things such as one thought I have, then a few minutes later I forget. When I try to talk I stumble on words sometimes as I forget what the subject of the conversation is or what I am trying to say.

I think the meds I am on have dampened down my memory skills, make me feel numb and like a walking shadow. I am in hospital for a psychiatric problem and feel cutoff from society. I am a social anomaly.

I consider myself to be stupid and my intelligence has been slowly decreasing as the years have gone by (beginning when taking my A-levels). I skipped class, my grades dropped, was terrified to leave the house. Became incredibly paranoid and my mental health seems to have reduced concordantly.

Please help and tell me what is up with me. I am a failure of society

they're in a psychiatric ward. they're already getting help.

Wait what? Really? Oh, that’s such a shame, I feel so sorry for them 😢

I know someone who was also sectioned because they had a complete breakdown of their mental health
