There are a full complement of problems that have nothing to do with other people. For example, imagine never being able to rest your mind again, no matter how intense the leisure, no matter how strong the intoxicants, no matter how tiring your thoughts. Sleep isn’t restful either. Most people would crack in 30 days or less.

How specifically is your brain "turbocharged"? Is this something you have been diagnosed with? Have you always had it? Is it hereditary? Why do you think most other people would not be able to cope with this condition? Has this condition conferred any advantages such as professional success?

I think most people would not be able to cope because they undervalue the importance to their self and sanity of brain downtime: daydreaming (and idle websurfing), zoning out (and intoxication), and sleeping (and dreaming).

The first diagnosis was at 18 months old, so I’m not sure how to answer the question as framed since I don’t have clear memories from that time.

You were diagnosed with having a turbocharged brain as a toddler?
That happened.
