As someone with ADD I experience the flip of this. I'm stuck in a world that is not used to running at 200% which is where I operate. It's been a lot of work but consciously slowing down because I need to understand people normally burn out if running over 100%.

It's a struggle. As an ex once explained using a garden analogy. I am over watering the garden because it's all I know but I need to understand not all gardens need heavy watering.

So yeah, ADD sucks. I want to stay at warp 9.9 but the rest of the world can't handle it.

Well, the ship analogy doesn't really hold up. If we draw a parallel with existing maritime ships, they can sustain their rated top speed when necessary. However, this is rarely done primarily due to fuel efficiency. Since there are diminishing returns to pushing speed, it’s only done under serious time constraints.
