@SteelMaiden - I sympathize and empathize with you. Though I am not schizophrenic I suffer from various different medical conditions (some of which I share with you) including ASD that impact my daily life and prevent me from living independently. ASD, ADHD, visual impairment/legal blindness, cerebral palsy, severe OCD, severe social anxiety and other medical conditions. I lost many years of my life to clinical major depression.

I'm glad you're going to university and I completely understand how ASD and other conditions can mask and affect ability. Been there. My IQ is very highly gifted which is, apparently, between 148-160. But I was the fool who turned to google to find out what very highly gifted meant in numbers. I too had early accomplishments--not quite as many as yours! :) I also too hope you're doing well and are receiving the help you need.
