hi, I have this problem with my perception of time, it seems to go by really, really slow. Everything was fine like back in 2010 but then i started smoking (tobacco) and things started to change. My life quailty went down and my psyhological well being is like totally gone. But thats not the big problem.

its the time thing that gets to me.....it really feels like february have lasted a year or sumthing for me. Its really not cool, and worse yet......it still feels like it keeps slowing in more and more. Feels like im gonna live forever now.......and that sucks cause my life quality sucks. this cant be normal, right? Ive heard of drugs that makes time go slow..........but its really screwed up, what do u guys make of it? what can i do?

hiya Standi :) welcome to the club 8) the answer to your question is to simply give it time, wait until you are old, then I can guarandamntee you that time will speed up real quicklike. when I was your age a day seemed to last at least 32 hours, now it barely lasts 16.

When I was a gradeschool kid in the mid-Sixties I had appointments at the dentist that took longer than the entire George W. Bush Administration.

I have been experiencing a ssslllooowwwiinngg dddooowwwnnn of time since February began. I'm enjoying it because my life quality is okay. I'm excited someone else is experiencing it too but I don't smoke tobacco and was experiencing time as going very fast up until the beginning of this month, so it doesn't sound like our experiences are related.

Time is a very personal thing, it fluctuates for everyone.

To Travelore: what ever you're on: bottle it and sell it.Youll make millions to folks over 25.

To the original poster: I saw another WP person post a similiar thing. That person said that he got the same advice from the people around him that AB just gave (and that I and most folks over 25 would have given) about'just wait till you get older'. It didnt seem to apply to him, and his life also sucked for other reasons anyway.

So I dunno.

Excercise would probably help. Start walking maybe. It will help clear your head.

If you're not employed you might try to get a job. Being employed changes your sense of time. Dont stay in you bedroom all day. Even if you have to volunteer for free-having to be somewhere at particular times probably would help. Just a couple of suggestions.
