Does anyone have issues with their perception of time’s passage? I have had this problem for a little while but don’t know if it’s MI or not. Basically, I struggle with day/date, and all too often, I feel like I take a break to do something, then look up, and it’s hours or days later. It won’t feel like that much time has passed, and I don’t know where it goes. Am I just weird?

Time distortion is a SZ thing. The hours blend into days into weeks into months into years.

Google time dilation and time constriction.
I know what you are saying. I think it means, you don’t have enough to do. I do the same thing.
I am a schizophrenic. I do time differently than most folks.

I’ve known dogs and cats who did time differently than most human beings.
I have issues with time because I have DID.
I very rarely feel even a sense of today, because things blur together for me and I lose track of when they actually happened. Like, I know for a fact I went grocery shopping with Chris today, just nine hours ago, but it feels like it was several days ago. I have no sense of having been there earlier today.
My past all blurs together, so what happened earlier today equals a month or a year ago in my memory. I am not able to differentiate in my head, which sucks when I am trying to treasure the memory of a positive event. Like, my mom will visit for the day and I’ll already lose awareness that it happened today by the time she’s been gone an hour.
It’s obnoxious but I don’t know how to change it. Maybe it’s my trauma background, but time doesn’t run normally for me. My old pdoc said I “lose time,” which is a DID term.
