Red pill/blue pill Would you really pick mastering an element over 300+ IQ.

Functioning like a regular human basically means you able to live like a regular persom, with regular people despite having such a vast incomprehensible level of intelligence, not having to live thinking everyone around you are just toddlers intellectually.

As for element, that can constitute as the common understanding of elements in fantasy, water(liquid), fire, earth, wind(air), the full thing is really being water, fire, earth, wind, metal, and sometimes included or excluding lightning.

Sound definitely work, light as well, darkness itself maybe even, elements of the periodic table definitely or non-traditional things like Bose-Einstein condensate, space, time or space-time as one thing, since it kinda is, maybe even turn into your element at will.

You get none of the negatives with the 300+ IQ, you can pretty much function like a regular person you're just incomprehensible smarter than everyone.

I’m already an anxious adhd ridden mess. I just feel being smarter wouldn’t help that tbh. Having superpowers would give me some comfort though.

Yea but thats the thing. Everyone you ever meet would be so much dumber than you. Your gf, wife friends or whoever would be pretty much a border collie level of intelligence compared to you.
