The last couple minutes of this insightful presentation elicited quite the tearful reaction from me. I can tell that Dr. Silverman is a very empathic person and she certainly has an ability to communicate profoundly and with heart. I am very grateful that I had the opportunity to watch and listen to this insightful and meaningful presentation.

The part about if you don’t do exceptionally well with new things you must be stupid really got to me. That would be what teachers would say when I was a child , along with giftedness isn’t real. It was back and forth with is giftedness real or not real and is everyone gifted and therefore no one is.

I like it when people say what their IQ is, bc then I know they're not only stupid but also narcissistic. They must believe the on-line 'IQ Test' is real. No one knows what their IQ score is, UNLESS they go back to their High School after graduating, and ask for it. They won't tell kids during their stay in school, for obvious reasons (bullying & bragging), but are happy to tell you afterward. Now, how many kids do ya think go back to the old High School and ask for their final IQ score? Just about none. I doubt most people want to know. If its lower than they like, they must live knowing that for life.😮

Woah, calm down. You have no idea how this works. Once a child takes the gifted test, they wait to hear back whether they made 96th percentile or greater. The cutoff for Gifted programs is 130 (with a handful of grace points). The testing psychologist tells the parents the score and the parents often tell the kids. If you feel envious, then don't indulge it and live in it. Instead, improve yourself. You don't need to see yourself as less, and believe it or not, most gifted folks don't see you that way.

Iq has to do with intelligence and age so going back to hs wouldn't work. Also there are real iq tests. Mensa. I feel like this comment is an iq test 😅 Although I do agree with the narcissist thing but it's not everyone. Cerebral narcissists would not account for everyone. Most likely 6-10% based on statistics. 😮

Actually, you can be sensitive and NOT GIFTED. I treat kids like this every week. They have sensory processing disorder with sensory sensitivity. They are not gifted emotionally, intellectually, artistically, or in any other way. I treat gifted kids as well, and they are easy to differentiate. Even if they are not intellectually gifted, they are a unique profile of intensity, drive, and complexity. Not every gifted person is sensitive to everything, as well. Linda needs to learn more about sensitivity before she tells everyone that is sensitive that they are gifted. Because they are NOT.

Already, right from the get go, I want to ask - why is the anxiety something to 'get rid of'? My journey has led me to pay ATTENTION to the anxiety and unpack it. Anxiety isn't always an IRRATIONAL fear. Especially not for gifted children. They have considered so much more than a neurotypical person. I think this subject is a great simple generalisation, but I'm not sure if it's suited for gifted children.

It becomes necessary when it has engulfed your life. I believe it has a function when you can respond properly without getting overwhelmed. However, it can paralyze some and cause severe suffering. True story. PS. My amygdala is exhausted.

@@Deb11-11 I think if it's reached the stage of 'engulfing', then when did the unpacking occur? Early warning signs acted upon sooner with tools will ease ones anxiety before becoming overwhelmed. This is both developmental and behavioral.

Dr. Peters, what an awesome presentation! A “dorky little worry monster” is the best way for me to think of my irrational fears and anxieties. I have high-functioning autism. A good friend of mine from TAG sent me this video in hopes that it would help me deal with my OCD and anxiety issues. Interestingly enough, my worry monster causes me to worry about things from the past, in addition to the future. For instance, I think “oh my gosh, what if this had gone inaccurately?” Or, “what if my timing with something had been off, what then??”-even if I had been successful on something. Dilemmas in general are another big causal factor of worry for me. In addition to some of your coping strategies you listed, I have also done guided meditation/visualizations on KZread. They have really helped me along. Thanks again!
