Same. Didn't even finish high school because credits wouldn't transfer and I'd graduate after my peers. Got a GPD and started college while my friends were in their senior year. Didn't finish, but I took some classes.

The greatest lie ever told to me was that without a college education, I'd be worthless. Thanks Dad. That really fucked me up in my twenties. I'm extremely qualified and I learned to recognize it, but boy did it create some imposter-syndrome for a while.
