Is it normal to oscillate between like 20 IQ points throughout your life? Sometimes I'm smart and other times I'm a tard.
I'm going through a tard time. Is it diet related? Am I drinking too much cum?

Yes, its called huge amounts of stress.
Feeling helpless and miserable all the time makes your iq drops.

Long term stress can cause glycogen depletion in muscle tissues, I don't know if this is factor. Still need more data.

Sleep schedule and rhythm are off when you're dumb as the most baseline answer, since you don't give many details.

Honestly anon it just sounds like depression. When I'm having the depressive episode I get for 3-4 days about once a month, I am completely retarded. I can hardly think fast enough to hold fucking small talk. My mind is just empty. Right now things are looking up for me and I feel sharp as a tack.
Does this sound like you? Like another anon said you should post more details.

You know, guys, everything you said is what I'm going to. I've been going to sleep from anywhere between 10pm and 3am, I'm extremely stressed out, and I'm very depressed.
I start abusing substances too when I'm like this.
The answer is so obvious but I couldn't get it. Thanks, fellas.

not to.
fuck. see this is what I mean it's like my brain outputs something and it's totally wrong and retarded and there's nothing that stops me. I'm coming to conclusions that bypass my false detector.
>>11658861
I didn't even read the rest of your post past your first sentence. I just can't focus on anything and I feel like shit..
Yeah, you sound like me. I have crazy highs and miserable lows. I pray for the high times to come back again.

OP, here.
I'm definitely more like you. My depressive episodes last for the better part of a year, however; I couldn't imagine being like this for half a decade. Sorry, man.

20 points isn't a lot, that's like 1 standard deviation more or less and you can easily fluctuate like this

couple of things to factor:
- poor sleep (three days of no sleep makes me unfunctionable)
- depression and GAD (makes me not focus at all unless by isolation with the internet as a cope)
- processed garbage (get really tired and slow to the point where I'd rather not care anymore)
- low testosterone (not going into detail but I know what occurs when I have it)
- high levels of cortisol (impacted by everything above and is one reason for ruining testosterone)

Solutions: Meditation, eating good food, increasing test, and sleeping at right time unless you need to stay up for a reason which most people don't realise.

The only things I can check off that list are food and exercise(test). The worst I eat is bread and I have it no more often than one meal. I used to meditate. I should really try picking that up again.
>>11660184
I did really poorly in my classes this semester. The previous semester I did stellar. 110 and 130 is the difference between average and wizkid.

i mean there are other means of increasing test but other sci posters would laugh at me for even mentioning it (though it did work for me in the long run).

Also might replace wheat with other sort of carbs due to gluten, as the protein even if you don't have celiac or IBS still hurts in the long run.

For meditation I've heard that 20 minutes is opitmal (almost like it mimics a biphasic resting schedule) but I do it for an hour a day.

I've heard of the gluten thing for a long time, but other than anecdotes is there any evidence that it impairs cognition? I know I can look up an essential oil mother's blog with their papers linking it to autism, but is there any identifiable action that gluten causes in the body to affect the brain?
I want a good reason because I fucking love bread and pasta. Is it really an all or nothing thing? On average the most wheat I'll have is like pizza once a week. and crackers and braunschweiger twice a week.
>>11660224
I mostly eat a vegetable and sausage soup I make myself that's always on hand. It's like 85% vegetables and I use bone broth. I take some andouille sausage(grass fed) and throw it all in the pressure cooker for 25 minutes and it's divine.
I'll eat that stuff twice a day then I have a protein shake consisting of casein protein, gelatin, hemp seeds, chia seeds, medicinal mushroom powders, ashwaghanda, and a few cups of blueberries. I fill it up with a ton of organic whole milk.
I also take zinc and vitamin D supplements.

There's your problem, you're probably eating like 1500kcal a day, which is barely even enough for subsistence. Many orthorexics like you develop an eating pattern like that.
