Alright, this is probably really dumb, and keep in mind that I have OCD and anxiety problems, which is probably making me worry about this. I feel like I boasted about being intelligent, or at least thinking I'm intelligent! Haha! So now I'm worried that, maybe, God has lowered my IQ to punish me for bragging.
I had a disagreement with my dad about politics, basically, and I feel like he often disagrees with me just because I'm me. That could be a result of low self-confidence, but who knows. Anyway, I got annoyed and said "I'm right! You're wrong!" basically because I'm insecure. I then said, jokingly, "Well, as Trump would say, let's compare IQ tests."
I was joking, and clarified that I didn't really mean that (and was more kidding about Trump constantly talking about his IQ). Anyway, I said it in a jocular tone...I wasn't serious. I didn't actually mean to brag, but I'm afraid maybe I was bragging and now God is going to punish me. In the past few days I feel like I've been slower, and things that were easy to me now seem difficult. However, I'm probably imagining it. I guess all I can do is try to explain to my dad that I wasn't bragging and then pray that God did not lower my IQ, and if he did ask him to reverse it.
By the way, I by no means think I'm the smartest person in the world. Veryyy far from it (there are people with like 180, 190, even over 200 IQs). However, I feel like I have pretty cool ideas for projects and stuff that I want to do after I get through this difficult part of my life (very intense OCD that I'll be going to therapy for in a few weeks), and I would be very sad if God took away some of that creativity because I made a silly joke.
