Does anyone feel like time is moving faster than it used to pre-COVID? Or am I just getting older and slower and thus everything around me seems to be getting faster?

It definitely feels that way to me. I feel like the older that I get, the faster time goes by. I cannot believe that 2025 is already almost over. That seems crazy to me.

Right? It seems like just yesterday we were dealing with Y2K, 9/11, the internet bubble, Iraq, etc.

I don't mean to sound dramatic, but life feels less meaningful since the pandemic. I was sick and off work for 2 years because of covid complications. It showed me how important living life is and yet, it no longer feels like that's an option. Work is becoming more and more stressful, things are becoming increasingly expensive. Life just isn't...fun. Somehow, that's making time go by both extremely slowly and extremely quickly.

I feel the same way. Life honestly seems to have lost purpose and there's not much left to look forward to. Seems like everyday is a rinse and repeat to meat some arbitrary work goal and impossible deadlines

I was just telling g a friend this a few weeks ago. Time is going uncomfortably fast
