The Invisible Struggle of Borderline Intelligence

from NeuroNarratives Hosted by Sho Oshita

It is estimated that around 17 million people in Japan fall within the category of borderline intellectual functioning. They face many challenges in daily life, such as difficulty expressing themselves verbally and struggling with organizing tasks at work. Because their difficulties often go unnoticed by those around them, they frequently encounter particularly harsh realities at key turning points in life, such as university life and job hunting. From an expert perspective, this book highlights concrete issues in areas like interpersonal relationships and financial management, shedding light on the realities faced by those in need of support. In this way, it presents a clear and accessible overview of individuals who are often overlooked in society, helping to foster greater understanding.
