It is always a pleasure to deal with a smart, intelligent person. He is cultured and restrained in conversation, and takes responsibility for his actions. And it doesn’t matter what kind of education he has. Communicating with such people, we grow spiritually, inspired by a positive example. But contacts with stupid and narrow-minded individuals force us to degrade. Let's, together with psychologists, analyze the signs of a stupid person in order to exclude such individuals from our social circle
Treatment of hallucinations
The method of treatment depends on what the doctor finds out at the diagnostic stage. One of the methods for eliminating the pathology itself may be chosen. If it turns out that the cause cannot be eliminated, then therapy is aimed at eliminating the symptoms, that is, the hallucinations themselves. If the disease develops as a result of the use of any drugs, then they are canceled.
In case of poisoning with alcohol or drugs, cleansing of the gastrointestinal tract is prescribed. The patient will need rest and care.
A course of psychotherapy can help cure hallucinations. Neurometabolic therapy and restorative medicine techniques are used.
Superiority
A stupid person is sure that he is better than everyone else. Why? Just because. It's funny, but people who think this way have no achievements at all. Even more, they can be negative characters with a bad reputation and weak characteristics.
But at the same time they will bully others. Stupid men can attack younger guys, weaker guys, or those who look different - not what a “real man” should look like from their primitive point of view. And not particularly intellectually developed girls will mock those young ladies who do not meet their standards of beauty.
Also, the cause of this kind of “bullying” can be jealousy, envy, and hostility. If emotion is present, then the attacks of a fool become even more absurd.
Causes
The emergence of emotional dullness appears as a process of disruption of the affective response to external event or social stimuli. This occurs due to disruption of brain processes associated with neural connections, impulse transmission, and the level of mental and intellectual processes. This affective change has no age-related characteristics, the only thing is that there is a specificity of provoking factors that is more suitable for different stages of development. These changes always indicate improper functioning of the psyche, and in adults they are associated with psychiatric diseases (depression, dementia, schizophrenia spectrum), and in childhood the causes are psychological (psychotrauma received, improper upbringing, negative psycho-emotional conditions in the family).
Separately, it is worth highlighting the organic causes of affective flattening against the background of brain damage - trauma, tumors, strokes. In children's versions, this includes various mental development delays, autism, and the consequences of pathological childbirth.
Social developmental factors can shape the lack of correct emotional response if they include deprivation of emotional examples. Most often, such disorders occur in orphans and children whose parents are completely immersed in work or solving their own problems. Without receiving the required number of examples, without going through moments of complication of reactions, thanks to the observation and explanation of adults, the child remains at the initial level of emotional development. For the formation of a full set of various subtle and complex reactions, he needs active interaction and support from adults, their explanation of what is happening to him and how it can be expressed.
If there is no one who can explain the experiences that are occurring, then they remain incomprehensible and frightening, closed from manifestation, and subsequently from implementation. Further development occurs without using the entire emotional spectrum, so after a few years the psyche stops experiencing these emotions, discarding them as an unnecessary function. This is how the defect grows even in the absence of medical or organic problems.
Superficiality
This is one of the characteristics characteristic of a stupid person. Superficiality is a shallow, external perception of phenomena. Here's how it shows up:
- A judgment about something based on its external outline or appearance.
- Quick conclusions, reluctance to delve into the topic.
- One-sided perception of something. A person can condemn the mystic Osho because he does not understand him. But one can only judge him based on the Eastern mentality and his personal characteristics.
- Supposedly “smart” reasoning about something that a person actually doesn’t understand. A striking example is furious conversations about politics and the world situation, the intellectual basis of which is the news watched one evening.
Simply put, a stupid person primitively perceives the world around him and judges it in the same way. A sane person will never talk about what he does not know.
Unfortunately, superficiality is the scourge of modern society. This is ignorance that considers itself wisdom.
Categorical
Listed above are 6 signs of a stupid person. Categoricality is the seventh. What is meant? The fact that people with a low level of intelligence adhere to categorical attitudes, which in their case are multiplied by stubbornness.
Many people think that this is the height of stupidity. Just look at any field of science. Perceptions have changed so much over time! Once upon a time, the inhabitants of the Earth were sure that it was flat. And this is just one example out of several thousand, proving that one discovery can turn the entire system of knowledge upside down and erase past beliefs.
It is also believed that rigid thinking leads to Alzheimer's disease. Being flexible and thinking is important because only such people can feel comfortable in the modern dynamic world.
Right
What is the difference between smart and stupid people? The fact is that the first ones know how to admit their mistakes. And they know that their opinion is not truly true for everyone.
But fools never make mistakes (so they think). They are impeccable, the smartest. A fool will argue desperately until he turns blue in the face. His opponent will have to agree to save his own nerves.
This, of course, will greatly amuse the ego of a fool. He will be confident that he has power over other people, has the ability to persuade, inspire, and control. But this is not true, of course. It is simply impossible to convince a fool. Even if all 7 billion people tell him that he is wrong.
Having made a mistake, a fool does not admit it. Having offended a person, he will not apologize. Having heard about the existence of another point of view, he will flare up and begin to prove its insignificance. Why? Because he is always right.
Of course, such people spend their entire lives at the same point of development (if they do not degrade), do not learn anything new, and do not achieve any heights.
Mini tips for every day
Finally, here are some more useful recommendations for you.
- Follow the regime. Night vigils, work without rest, sleep until lunch - all these factors hinder mental development.
- Spend more time in the fresh air to enrich your cells with oxygen.
- Include red fish, nuts, cocoa, greens, and seaweed in your diet. These products contain substances necessary for normal brain function.
- Play board games - cards, chess, checkers, backgammon.
- Solve crosswords, solve puzzles and logic problems.
- Develop cognitive functions with the help of special simulators. You can find them here: Vikium, Bitreynika, BrainApps.
- Listen to classical music. Scientists have proven that the works of Bach, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky and other great composers stimulate brain activity.
- Learn to solve your problems yourself. The habit of shifting responsibility to others dampens the brain.
Fear and denial
A person who is not at all stupid will never experience unreasonable fearfulness. Of course, everyone has their fears, but most people are not shy about trying.
Not that kind of fool. He will never go to another country or city - he is scared, he does not know the language, he is afraid of getting lost, and in general they are not welcome there.
A fool will not try to start his own business: it is risky, the idea will not be relevant, and in general, all businessmen steal or have connections.
Such a person will not agree to an interesting offer, because he is sure that there is deception everywhere. He can’t even find a job: what if his experience doesn’t suit him, or they force him to do an internship for free? Of course, all the doubts are “worth” missing out on prospects.
Simply put, fools are constantly in their comfort zone, which causes them to stagnate or degrade. But, of course, they are not to blame for this. Such people are always right about everything. They are just victims of the situation, they are just unlucky in life.
This is all sarcasm, of course. Any intelligent, developed person strives for something new and does not allow fears to control his life. Even if there is a risk, he will think about the “airbag”, but he will still try what he is drawn to.
Stereotyping
One last sign to consider. They say: “Men are stupid people!” It's funny that this phrase was once uttered in the context of the topic being considered at the moment. And even though it formed the basis of the song (art is a subjective thing), it cannot help but note that this saying is the most stupid thing ever.
It is based on stereotype, subjectivity and emotionality. Gender doesn't matter. Among both men and women there are both fools and great, intelligent personalities. Focusing on gender is just an attempt to excel (as discussed above).
However, this is not about that now. What are stereotypes? This is something that has replaced the thought process for many people. The stupidest person in the world is the one who allows the once established images and so-called standards of society to fill his brain.
A person who thinks in stereotypes is sure: this is good, and that is bad. She divides the world into black and white. Why? If you ask such a person this question, he most likely will not be able to answer it. It is interesting that the attitudes that exist in society apply to all people. But some people accept them, while others begin to understand. And in the end they come to a completely different opinion, which is never imposed on anyone.
This is the main difference between intellectuals and not very smart people. Fools do not think, do not think, do not develop, do not move forward. They're not interested. They don't need it.
Bad manners
Another important quality. The concept of good manners is identified with culture, good behavior, and intelligence. It reflects the level of upbringing, morality, education, spirituality and ethics of a person.
A stupid person cannot boast of this quality. He absolutely does not know how to behave in society. He shows his bad manners, but others are ashamed.
A stupid person not only does not admit his bad manners, but is even proud of it. Why should he observe etiquette, be polite, correct, tolerant? After all, he considers it beneath his dignity to “adapt.” Such a person will defiantly break the rules and do whatever comes into his head.
A fool ignores the other person's needs
0
Is he interested? Isn't he tired? Maybe he needs to step away, but he just can’t find a suitable break? In one breath, such a person fills the entire space. It can be especially difficult for sensitive people who are afraid of offending or being inappropriate. The lack of need for feedback indicates an infantile confidence in oneself being right. Such interlocutors are like a child not yet endowed with empathy who cannot understand that his mother is tired of dragging him on a sled for the eighteenth kilometer. So, on the one hand, they seem to make it clear: “If you don’t like something, just say it.” On the other hand, yeah, try it, tell me. Paying the bill for your grievances - thank you, not today.
Selfishness
Who is this stupid person? This is a person who loves attention. And, of course, always trying to attract him with the most absurd actions. Fools, wherever they are, always talk loudly. After all, it is so important for them to show themselves, to attract other people’s attention.
And of course, fools always talk only about themselves. A mature, established person knows perfectly well: dialogue is a form of communication intended for exchanging information with someone.
But the fool adheres to the so-called pathological solo. Combined with bad manners, this looks very wild: he is ready to kill everyone in the world and almost start screaming just to tell something about himself.
Talking loudly
He simply no longer knows how to attract attention to himself, so he resorts to the simplest method - raising his tone, because people automatically react to loud sounds. And he doesn’t care where he is - in a restaurant or in a library, he doesn’t care about the rules of decency and etiquette, he must be heard always, everywhere and by everyone without exception, because a fool is always sure that he is saying extremely interesting things.

In addition, such people often use other primitive means of attracting attention - excessive fussiness, sudden movements, etc.
A stupid man is afraid of everything
0
I won’t go there - that’s where it is. I won’t go here - it’s there. However, the constant search for a zone of safety and comfort interferes with evolution. Any living mind of this evolution is hungry and finds ways to either independently come to terms with its own fears or seek help. It's stupid to let fears control your life. There is also the other side of the coin - when a person rushes into battle without weighing the risks and without comparing them with his own strengths. How many stupid things have been committed on this courage! But this second type of “headless horsemen” is still closer to me than the waiters who fear everything. By performing some action, a person gains experience, even a negative one, and some wisdom. And what experience and wisdom does a person have who stays within four walls and, out of boredom, experiments only with finding the best TV channel?..
