In which you approach your everyday life?

I am in the former camp. I am just TOO fast for myself; this has caused me to fail a few classes, because I did everything in a hurry. I guess I don't know how to slow down, don't I? XD

I take my time and are very meticulous, especially with special interests, uninteresting tasks and information not so much.

As slow as I need to be, which causes a lot of conflict with "outsiders" who want everything yesterday. Too bad, I say. If they want it done right, I have to stick to my own pace that works. As far as I'm concerned, if it ain't done right to begin with, you may as well not have done it at all, because it'll have to be redone anyway.

I take my time and filter, spending time only on what's most important first. I also simplify to avoid being overloaded. Get rid of stuff I don't really need, and that includes tasks that sometimes may be important to others, but are too much for me.

Priorities man! Use them!! !

Slow with the exception of housework when I am stressed, and then again that depends on the type and level of stress.

Slow. I don't think I'm ever fast. Not in the current state that I'm in, at least.

My folks tell me to slow down a lot; hard to do when that switch us permanently on fast mode.

I used to be slow as molasses and careful about everything. I started taking Wellbutrin (for ADHD-PI) and it's like my brain sped up. I noticed the same effect on just Ritalin when it was in me, I moved faster. If I don't take my meds it's like I'm a Corvette with a severely clogged fuel injector, all power but no push.

I consider myself to be fast when my emotions are high, and slow when I'm at peace with the world.

I do that too! I think the fastest I am in is writing academic papers for school, which will not be happening for a bit, because I dropped out, due to an unsatisfactory business curriculum.
