please answer only if you really know!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
No, they don't lower your IQ score!. IQ is your ability to learn, not what you know!. Anxiety, depression and OCD would affect your ability to do well on the test!. Anxiety and depression affect your ability to concentrate, anxiety distracts your mind from what you're trying to accomplish, and OCD can affect it too, depending what form it takes!. So if you got a bad IQ score, don't despair!. Take the test again when you are well!. You're NOT a dummy!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I really know!.

Actually people that suffer from these types of conditions are generally more intelligent than normal people!. Many artists and writers that are very famous, suffered from these conditions!. They tend to affect artistic, intelligent, sensitive minds!. And intelligence is not lowered because of this!. Intelligence is not lowered anyway!. Perhaps just for a while if under the influence!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
