I have had all of those stages, apart from the gaming one. Made up for that with my electronics (jacobs ladders etc.), and my r/c cars. I think that it has helped me out. I never got good grades in school, but I started to when things got more complex and specialised. I got bullied for it as well, but this was by guys who watched TV 4 hours a day, I thought that going on Google, getting a bunch of websites up about my chosen topic, and perhaps ordering a few books was a better way to spend four hours, than sat staring at a tube (which I knew how to take apart and put back together anyway).
