I was recently reading up on REM sleep and brain development and I found a few articles that stated the human brain develops it hard wiring well into the teens and sometimes into the early 20's.
I would suggest you start training your brain to learn again. I don't think you'll get that 140 IQ back as those neural pathways which are not used are discarded by the brain, but your brain may still be forming new ones.
The main thing is to maintain a passion for learning and knowledge. Someone with a 100iq with a passion for learning new things will go much further in lifer than someone with a 140iq who is not interested in learning new things.
