Do you normally have the impression that people of high IQ such as 170 and above have a problem adjusting to?

their environment?

I have always thought that these people would have problems fitting in with their environment and interacting with people in a normal way much less becoming actors.

I always thought that they would only want to be like you know, scientists, geeks, plenty of facts, and data all the time.

I have heard of some actors who are extremely intelligent but i am just surprised at how normal they really are.

Actually, research shows that people with high IQ tend to be more socially involved and popular. I was shocked to learn that too, because I think we all have the image of a geek, but it's just not true. there are of course, exceptions to every rule.Do you normally have the impression that people of high IQ such as 170 and above have a problem adjusting to?
Intelligence is not everything. Environment is crucial to mental health. Highly intelligent people seem to walk the fence between madness and brilliance. Some, such as Van Gogh, managed both. I only have the impression they cannot adjust if they come in for treatment and tell me that is the case or if their suicide was on purpose rather than an accidental overdose.
what makes you think that 170 is high? i don't think i had a problem adjusting and i have been a mensa member since 1976
