That'd be all of us with Autism in the least. 
It's a developmental disorder after all that often has non-social cognitive deficits. I still have the remnants of language disorders and I am in the 65% or so of those with Autism that have executive dysfunction.
Although significantly more likely to fall into the clinically impaired range, 35.8% of the ASD group showed no impairment on EF measures. Factor analysis revealed a single unifying EF construct rather than a selective pattern of impairment. Dysexecutive behaviours were frequently reported in the ASD group, unrelated to Autism symptoms, EF task performance or co-occurring conditions. This study suggests autistic adults can experience clinically significant executive function difficulties and co-occuring dysexecutive behaviours that are disabling in everyday life.
I would have lost cognitive functioning from other stuff too, even if my IQ will still be high. I got a double hit.
Cognitive dysfunction is a core feature of schizophrenia. Deficits are moderate to severe across several domains, including attention, working memory, verbal learning and memory, and executive functions.
Yay me! I guess I lucked out with the higher IQ, even if it probably just makes me frustrated and depressed in the end.
