I was thrown from the car.
And I woke up in a head injury rehab ward, and I had been withdrawn from college, and I learned that my IQ had dropped by two standard deviations, which was very traumatic.
I knew my IQ because I had identified with being smart, and I had been called gifted as a child.
So I'm taken out of college, I keep trying to go back.
They say, "You're not going to finish college.
Just, you know, there are other things for you to do, but that's not going to work out for you."
So I really struggled with this, and I have to say, having your identity taken from you, your core identity, and for me it was being smart, having that taken from you, there's nothing that leaves you feeling more powerless than that.
So I felt entirely powerless.
I worked and worked, and I got lucky, and worked, and got lucky, and worked.
Eventually I graduated from college.
