So I’m not necessarily someone with a lower IQ ( I think) but I have been going to therapy to help with my autism and ADHD. One thing that looking back really set my life back was not trying because I thought I would already fail. Once I lost confidence in myself it was pretty much all downhill from there.
What I’m trying to say is how you label yourself (in this case “I have low IQ”) might be limiting what you can achieve before you even try. Don’t view yourself through that one outlook. Don’t let it limit yourself. After I started doing poorly in school because of my ADHD I just pretty much gave up on trying a lot of things I wanted to try because it might be harder for me than the average person. You’re still young enough that you can achieve a lot! Make sure you explore your interests and don’t get discouraged from small failures!
