Because of his background in psychopharmacology, one of his main interests is drugs, for most of these conversations, I recognize the drug and know a little about them. He sent me a picture of his books.
Far and away, Elijah is one of the smartest people I know, and probably the smartest person I've ever met who's in his early twenties.
I believe our disease tells us things about ourselves that simply is not true. A brain like Elijah deserves to be a Stanford or UPenn (Wharton School of Business). Instead, he's stuck in a local community college. Maybe no one told him he could or maybe someone told him no.
