My grandma has advanced Alzheimerโ€™s disease, so for my birthday this year, Iโ€™m trying to raise awareness for the cause.

I used to be a care assistant so I have seen many with dementia, alzheimers and other illnesses.

I know of things that can help too but they're not publicised very much. All for the greed of Big Pharma.

I feel resentful towards those greedy who rather take the money than save people.

My carers dad has just died from cancer. I gave her some information from the book of my private doctor that possibly could have helped him. With research references and I bet they did not take it into account.

It's always up to the sick to get themselves well. As it has been for me.

I'm sorry about your grandma. I'm sorry about all those who suffer and are left with no options.

Can coworkers tell if there is something going on between two people before they even realize it?

So long as the work gets done and no rules are broken then what's the problem?

Just let them get on with it....

I used to have a friend who got along with and he was a boy and when people were silly saying we fancied each other type thing it made him not want to be my friend anymore.

We were kids but not the point. Shame I lost my friend cos of other people.

Just be yourself don't let other people knock ur confidence.

Maybe this guy likes u or like likes u but he's not hurting anyone and neither are you.

Some people are just nosey. I think everyone have certain people who they get along better with sometimes and I don't think there's anything wrong with that

Are you intimidated by intelligent people?

I'm intimidated by people in general. I do however, envy intelligent people. Heck even as a high school drop out who's government stinks at letting us re-educate as adults; I envy anyone who finished 10th grade public level. I can't even get a job in retail without those extra 6 months I missed out on.

But yeah, people just scare me. I try mostly to stay out of everyone's way these days. Less terrifying, and less painful. They don't get disappointed with me, and I don't have to protect myself from them. It's a win-win.

You DO know that dropping out doesnt make anyone less smart dont you?

See if someone never had the opportunity to reach their potential then that doesnt show a persons intellectual ability. It just means the didnt have the opportunity for some reason or because of life circumstances.

Are you intimidated by intelligent people?

Maybe its my cogntion or lack of social skills or something.. or maybe im just not that smart but i wish i wouldnt frighten people away. Makes me cry so much like people think i a terrible person . I try so hard to be a good person and ill never be perfect but i try. And it hurts people think im a trouble maker.

I get really scared of being left alone with no one. Its hard when people dont seem to trust you.

Maybe keeping intelligence a secret is an intelligent thing to do in itself...

People can abuse it to manipulate others, as they do so much in the world

Are you intimidated by intelligent people?

But on the other hand I'm interested in not only intelligent people but all people. I want to understand and learn lots about how people think and why and all the different perspectives.

I have spent many hours looking up different mental illness videos and reading information about different things and joined a bipolar group on fb so learn about it better and how it affects people and to better support my friend.

I joined a group on aspergers to see what it is like for them but then i think i might also have abit of it myself but un diagnosed. Im not sure..but i think i do.

I try to gain insight of what it is like to be on the opporsite side when i disagree with someone. My friend taught me that before he died. That its good to see other peopls perspectives. He was such a clever man and id not have learnt this had he not told me and enjoy following it.

Like i feel many people divide because of differences but i seek to understand where as many dont seem to do this.

But if people only fight and argue with each other then no one will ever understand each other and then less likely to come together and make peace with each other.

Lack of searching for understanding and ignorance can be very dangerous. People do not like to admit that they do not know everything. Noone in this world knows everything and never will but people deny when they make mistakes instead of being honest.

I think that following ones own heart is more important than intelligence and acts of kindness to others

Sory rambling..as i do LOL

Are you intimidated by intelligent people?

My carers think I'm really intelligent. I think it's cos of my Veg EPA omegas cos test showed I was in higher range for almost optimal for omega 3.

But I still got cognitive dysfunction..cos my illness.

Carers been asking about my Veg EPA and wanted to try it.

I feel like Vep EPA has changed my life so much being able to think better. I never ever want to go back.

I dunno what my IQ would be but even speech therapists assistant said that she thought I was soo intelligent to my mam after meeting me once. ..

It's nice but not sure how I feel about it.

I think I ramble on too much but discussing and thinking things through.. sort of exercising my mind.. is kind of fulfilling sometimes. Not really sure why, I'm not really sure how many listen to my long rambles lol

I guess some do when I see likes online but...

I dunno.... if I AM intelligent I don't think it's right to say or suggest I'm better than u type thing.

I DO KNOW that professionals are VERY intimidated by me as they know that I know the rules of law and I'm not a soft touch to say it. But now the practice manager at the doctor surgery will no longer accept phone calls or emails from me. Andy GP has backed off.

I was teaching my own Dr about my own illness and my private test results since he said it was well beyond his expertise. I'm not even a Dr and if I can learn why can't he?

I understand that we know so little but think we know so much. I think humans are a silly species who repeat history over and over again. We don't learn from experience.

I am interested in intelligent people and what they have to say and what I can learn from them.

I think I'd be more concerned if the intelligent person did not have a good heart. Selfish intelligent people in powerful positions can be dangerous for lives of many.

But I once heard someone say keep your friends close and your enemy's closer
