OP I can relate.
On the plus side, we are excellent at pretending to have those qualities.

It says you meditate in your sig. Isn't the point of mediating to not feel dead inside?

This.

Maybe try loving-kindness meditation OP? (I'm guessing you aren't doing that kind of meditation.)

If true, and you're not just being a melodramatic bish, seek out a professional. Srs.

And, no, it's not just because you're (supposedly) smart.

i recovered from a very negative and problematic mindset recently. i used to have waves of extremely negative thoughts to the point where i'd be sitting in the bathroom and shouting "shutup" out loud to myself since they wouldn't stop coming. ever since i changed from negative to positive, there has been a void in my life and i feel dead srs

Op it seems like a reaction to some type of trauma possibly environmental. Bad experiences can cause that.

People of higher intelligence are more self aware. Dumber people just go through their little lives in their own little stupid bliss, like animals.

That isn't an issue with high IQ. I have tested between 128 and 132. I can be quite emotional sometimes, and have empathy. Usually I am pretty stern and calm/cool/collected, but what you are describing is something that only pertains to people of high IQ

It's part of growing up. You'll get over it. That being said, some people can't connect emotionally as well as others. When a girl starts crying around me I kinda just walk away. If you don't have feelings of pleasure then you are way overblowing your situation or you are ****ed in the head.

This is very common for people who have grown up during the information age.

How much interaction do you have with electronic devices and the Internet vs human interaction?

That's chronic depression my friend, has nothing to do with how smart you are. same symptoms.
Also your dopamine system might be fked up, are you a porn or a drug addict ?

I have an IQ higher than that.

Problems:

1. Almost no one to really talk to about problems.
2. Most people don't seem entirely real, like they're talking animals or robots.
3. Everyone does and says the same things over and over.
4. No one remembers things like I do. I have a great memory and most people can't remember anything past a certain point.

Positives:

1. If you're smart, you're like a superbeing in real life.
2. A superhero uses their powers to help everyone and solve problems. A supervillian uses their powers to be selfish and hurt people.
3. If you help people you will get a lot of good feelings and praise.
4. If you are good and help people, you will have a sense of mission and believe that your life has meaning while the lives of regular people have almost none.

Suggestion:

1. Start looking at people as babies who need you.
2. Don't be angry at people for being less than you. It's not their choice. Be like everyone's big brother or dad.

No, it isn't because of your IQ.

Could be depression or some kind of personality disorder.

If you are/were a psychopath that would be a lifelong thing - not a list of new symptoms.

Psychopaths have an actual difference in the brain structure vs. a psychological dysfunction.

“Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know”

Ernest Hemingway
"Seen in the light of evolution, biology is, perhaps, intellectually the most satisfying and inspiring science. Without that light it becomes a pile of sundry facts -- some of them interesting or curious but making no meaningful picture as a whole."

i know my dopamine levels are off tbf. i thought my body was trying to tell me to ease up on my pleasure seeking by inhibiting my ability to feel pleasure to an extent.

to explain, i used to be able to put headphones in and listen to music and enjoy it for many hours a day, then my body started to change and i could tell it was becoming a little desensitised to the pleasure so i started to cut down on my pleasures. then it just came to the point where i just stopped being able to enjoy pleasures pretty much. my dopamine is way off.

don't know if i can call it depression. i'm changed my mindset from negative to positive. i've transformed my self, and after this transformation i just feel dead browski

You're a douche and aren't as important as you think you are. Your problems 1 and 2 are made up in your head. 3 and 4 are true but who gives a ****. Lol imagine not liking someone because they have a poor memory. What a trip.

"130+ IQ"

FKING LOL! op you're a dumbass if you think being smart = low empathy, no feeling towards others. You are wrong fool. Look at Albert Einstein, he was a huge empath towards other humans, being a pacifist. A true "genius" understands humanity, they aren't fking sociopaths like you. If you have trouble connecting with others, it's because you think too highly of yourself. Come back to down to earth, your high IQ delusions aren't helping you or anyone around you.
