I’ve been realizing lately that it might be from ADHD - along with many other symptoms. Hoping to get diagnosed next year, and hopefully I won’t waste quite so much time just quietly stressing out.
Yes, medicated. Since committing to medication I’ve really pulled it together. I went off meds for a while in my late 20s and good lord did I set myself back. Getting ready in the morning is still a wild ride, but if I do everything as similarly as possible it helps.
Edit: sorry to say the medication does not fix my time blindness. I am an aggressive user of my work calendar and phone reminders.
It’s called disassociating.

Oh no.
I do that a lot, is it that bad?
No it’s extremely healthy
If you’re serious, then I’m crazy healthy!
Same.

Are you time blind? I am. It’s very frustrating. I can lose 5 minutes between putting socks on like it’s nothing.
Same. ADHD?

Yeah, routine seems to help a lot, I find. Everything between those routines though is like a Bermuda Triangle of hours passing without a trace.
Me too, also medicated, although I wasn’t diagnosed until later in life. I think the time blindness was already permanently ingrained. Lol
1000% I am, and I agree it’s super frustrating.
Some people snort ketamine to get there
If it causes difficulties/stress in your life, it might be worth looking into. For me it turned out to be a symptom of CPTSD, which was a surprise
I have CPTSD, ADHD and Autism. Could be any of the above!
Did you mean Dissociating?
Yup, I did.
Or it could also be meditation.
