I can relate. Society seems to want to reject anything unusual or different like a bad organ transplant. Sure, there are some serious mental issues needing medication, but not so long ago the medical commuinty also thought homosexuality was a mental illness…
You are different. Whatever may be going on in your life right now, you are different and no matter why its not a bad thing to be ashamed or embarrassed about. Everyone has a story. Tell yours.

VERY well said, Jennifer!! Perhaps difference would be easier if the OP can work on the arrogance. Perhaps a lower profile is the way to go; keeping the knowledge that things are simple closer in and just living a life without being overbearing. Also, what if the arrogance is a defense mechanism? For what? Once that piece of the puzzle is worked out, then things may be smoother.

There’s a very real possibility that you are simply a hell of lot more advanced than the rest of us. Intuitively, intellectually, analytically…I could go on.
Jennifer & Tom each make good points which I shall humbly attempt to merge into one: play your thoughts close to the chest until you find a way to express them that “others” will find credible & palatable. I’m thinking writings, i.e., books, essays, dissertations, blogs, etc. Personally? I’d be very interested in learning more about your point of view & what you think.
