CONCLUSION

In conclusion to the above results of the sample taken, it is evident that giftedness does not relate
to mental disorders, maximum people from the sample think that depression and anxieties don’t
have any solid effect on the psyche of human mind and also to one’s giftedness, calamity of
mind is very important but not in scrap of giftedness. Moods are everywhere and ubiquitous;
everyone has them. Also jealousy is a common factor among all gifted personalities that merely
doesn’t indulge a person to mental retardation. Achievement through giftedness is very valuable
to the sample and they don’t have any fear of losing it, neither have they or will they try violent
crimes or any usage of stimulation. Family support has always played a very important role in
one’s development; traumatic events mostly make people’s senses out of order. But still there are
certain ways to overcome them. It absolutely doesn’t mean that one is mentally ill so his/her life
has no meaning.

According to the sample taken, people are of the view that in today’s world there is a
competition going on and there is a lot of scope of gifted people although like normal people
they also face problems, anxieties, fears but their extent is not much that can lead to mental
illness. They had a view that in today’s world everyone thinks about one’s self and they only are
concerned about themselves, about their future, career, life, goals and missions. So one gives
little importance to his/her mental disorders until they get worse and second reason for their
negligence is that if they start their treatment from the beginning their secret will be known to the
world, people will no longer consider them a talented personality rather they will be considering
them a depressed soul ignoring that they have no control over this.

While people's moods rise and fall as various life events are experienced, most moods never
become that extreme or feel uncontrollable. As depressed as an average person might get, it
won't take too much for them to recover and start feeling better. Similarly, happy and excited
moods are not easily sustainable either, and tend to regress back to a sort of average mood. Most
people can't stay too depressed or too happy for any length of time.
In conclusion of our project, we will say that mostly people taken in our sample are of the view
that there are probably less chances of giftedness leading to mental retardation.
