I'm talking about high intelligence rather than high IQ. So, I guess I'm technically answering the question, "Is high intelligence a blessing or a curse", rather than that question about IQ specifically. In truth, I don't care much about IQ per se; the discussion of intelligence is a more interesting debate.
