Mine kinda... gave up.. after a while. It was the kind of depression you can only throw so much of your resources into. A couple teachers managed to engage my interest (geology is one of the few areas of science I learnt about in school rather than because I learnt a bit on my own, for instance) but most of 'em couldn't get past the thick, thick walls I had up then.
It is good to hear that things did go well for some of the other bright kids!
