Engineer thinking brain

My brain seems to never quit bugging me about everything. One minute it is worried about bills and survival. The next minute is it inventing a new product or way of doing something. It seems that no one in my life so far understands how my brain functions. Whenever I ask a question about how something works they answer with a condescending tone as I’m very uneducated. I never seem to ask in a way that they understand my way of thinking. It is very frustrating.
