I have been tested numerous times and my average is somewhere around or slightly above 175.

Far from ever, EVER bragging about this fact, I lament it. I can't speak for everyone with an above-average IQ, but personally my thinking is not anything I would wish on anyone else. I analyze, reanalyze, and reanalyze the results of the first and second analysis.

Dark thoughts can, and do at times, pervade my mind. Nothing violent mind you, just frightening ideas of my own limitations. Which, intellectually, I realize is ridiculous to be saying having just told you I have a genius-level IQ.

Bottom line: It's not all its cracked up to be. Everyone else looks at you as if you can do anything, but you know all-too-well all of your limitations.
