That's not my experience.
Intense pain makes time feel longer, but it is the same for all intense experiences. And I am not even sure about that, endorphines can make time fly.
And when I consider memories, pleasurable events tend to take more time in my mind, pain tend to get erased more than pleasure. For example, I don't remember much about sick days, though obviously uncomfortable, they don't take much subjective time, thankfully.
- pizzafeelsright 3y agoMemories that are recorded have an initial depth and upon retrieving the memory, the depth gets deeper. Trivial events, with little reason to recall, are forgotten. This explains how trauma and ptsd can create terrible feedback loops. Having lived through a somewhat damaging childhood I have chosen to not recall the unpleasant memories and have forgotten them.
