Could brain energy mismatches explain altered experiences in schizophrenia?
A minute can seem shorter when you are having fun, yet it feels painfully long when you're bored or stressed.
AI Summary
People with schizophrenia-spectrum conditions report that minutes feel much shorter when they are enjoying themselves and much longer when they are bored or stressed. This distortion of time perception is more pronounced than in the general population. Those with the condition also describe time as fragmented, familiar surroundings as strange or disconnected, and their sense of self as shifting. The article suggests that these altered experiences may be linked to mismatches in brain energy use.
