Being bright made me lazy
I didn't have to put in much effort to get through
I never cared about being top of the class, so I just coasted with minimal effort
I'll work my arse off when I need to, but outside of that I put in as little as I can get away with

Name checks out.

Name does not check out, preparation matters for fisting.

100% this. I try to automate everything, so I don't have to bother and that's usually where I apply myself the most; trying to remove tedious busy BS from my life.
Nothing is really challenging. I got my degree with very little effort and I have a good career but the work is still just tedious and repetitive more than challenging. Otherwise I generally check out.
I don't spiral into self hate, but it can get close. More like deep sadness at "failing at perfection". And yes I have a trillion hobbies. Yay Autism. Yay Autism that wasn't diagnosed until late adulthood.

I'm lucky
I'm not autistic, I'm definitely unorthodox, but not neurodivergent (that I know of!)

Same. Now I'm an unemployed Mr Doctor who's trying to begin to learn how to impose self-structure. Want to go back to school but another BS (or a first Master's) is hard to get funded and a PhD requires solo research to even have a competitive application.
Maybe our group should at least be teaching the next batch of gifteds and adding in our lived shortcomings to the lessons. 🤷
