Yes, I do that all the time. If I play rapid or classical, I would play it as if it were a bullet game

Hello! I was just wondering if there's anyone else out there who have blitz, bullet and rapid ratings within ~50 ELO of each other? My blitz is 1154, bullet is 1151 and my rapid is 1205. I don't really take time to think during rapid because I find that if I think too hard, I end up blundering. So it is best for me to just play instinctively. This has been becoming more and more true the more I play blitz and bullet, as I just play and don't think.
Is this pretty normal for players who don't like to overthink positions and just play it by feel? I'm honestly just curious because I normally see a couple hundred points difference between blitz and rapid, and then another hundred or so difference between blitz and bullet.
Let me know what you think/what you're experiences are with your ELO in different time controls!
