I don't know what to make of it.

Well firstly the experiences I will share have only stared occurring lately, about 3 weeks ago. Now I dont think I'm time leaping, or having some weird version of Deja Vu but I have no idea whats happening to me.

My first experience was when I was sitting at my computer watching a file download. I was watching the percentage climb. I remember the file being 87.5% and all of a sudden it was down to 65% and the "time remaining" had also increased. At the time I didnt think much of it, perhaps a glitch, right?

Afew days later I was reading in bed and glanced over at the clock to see what time it was(roughly 12:30 I think). I retured to reading my book for what seemed like afew minutes. I glanced over at the clock again only to notice it was only a 1 minute difference to what it had previously been. I counted the pages I had read in that time and I had read 9 page . Now I'm not the fastest reader in the world, Im actually kind of slow and I know that I couldnt have been fast enough to read 9 pages in a minute.

The last experience I will share happened afew days ago. I was having breakfast and kept thinking I should hurry up becuase I was running late for work. I checked my watch, It was roughly 8:45. I start work at 9. I finished off my coco grabbed my keys and jumped in my car. I started the ignition and took a look at the digital clock in the car. The time was 3 minutes behind my watch which I thought was weird because I had set them at the same time. I looked at my watch and saw that it was the same time as I had in my car. That is when I decided to seek help from the ATS community.

I cant think of anything that Im doing differently to trigger these events. I've never had them before and have no idea if its all mental or something else. I have thought about the idea of clocks just glitching around me and dont think thats it(though it might be). The several other experiences like the ones above have pushed me to where I can no longer just brush it aside. Weird things like this never happen to me. Could it be something in the atmosphere or a global effect of something else? I just really dont know.

I look forward to your feedback.

*Just to clarify. The clocks/watches in my home work perfectly fine. I have both analog and digital clocks both set to the exact same time. Which is what made my experiences so bemusing, The fact that they have not lost any minutes to them and still run in sync with eath other.

Hmm, for your first example, you said how the percentage went back down. That is definitely just a glitch of the downloader. Percentage changes while downloading can be a pretty common occurrence, on many different websites and download clients.

But for the other ones you brought up.

I will say time has been acting kinda strange lately.

Whenever I've had a quartz watch of average quality and brand on my wrist it looses approx 20-30 seconds a month. When left stationary they keep to within 1-2 seconds over a month which is what all the manufacturers specs said.
Dunno if thats normal?

I've had weird occurances of missing and seemingly backward time too, not too disimilar to you, never figured it out other than perhaps abductions for the missing time events?

Another theory is that you have crystal based time pieces (most electronics are run by crystals) and your intention and will has influenced the crystal(s), this link is such that people who practice crystal healing/meditation etc will attest to it.

this is not a troll statement...something may be effecting your perception of time...like perhaps a mild stroke or something.
To be on the safe side, I would suggest getting a checkup to make sure your doing alright...

Time is shooting like an arrow for me...which means the experience is subjective...which means either your in some metaphysical transition state that to date has never been documented amongst the billions of souls on this earth past and present whom have tried everything from deep meditation, drugs, isolation chambers, etc...or, there is a malfunction in your personal awareness and perception..

I would venture to say its the second version and go see a doc to sort out whats going on..just to be safe.

Weird how many times I get DeJaVu, but ive had that since Childhood. also these past few weeks ive had numerous strangers asking me if we've met before as theyve seen me somewhere else, but thats physically impossible due to the distances, the fact Ive hardly been out the house the past year and dont usually talk to unfamiliar people.

Perhaps for brief moments im seeing time through the eyes of my Doppelganger and then thinking "Ive been here before" before shrugging it away, who knows.

Ironically, with my morning coffee I was thinking about how time has been "speeding up" for a couple of decades at least. I used to advertise my theory about time going faster the older we get, which involves the Earth rotating faster on its axis. More recently I've considered other theories like interdimensional "warps" and information overload (we have so much more information constantly bombarding us that it appears time is going faster, but it's simply reflecting the exponential rate of information growth).

Anyway, in conjunction with this line of thought I was also reminiscing about a very mysterious incident that happened a few years ago, and "moments" later I saw this new thread. Here's my story:

I work from home, and keep an eye on the digital time display at the lower right corner of my screen so I know when I can take a break, lunch, or log off, etc. One day I looked at the clock and it was going nuts (for illustration only, I'll give examples of times I saw, although I don't have them all written down):

First, let's say, I saw 1:42. Then a couple of minutes later it said 1:39. Next time I looked it said 1:41. Then I looked again and it said 1:40, then seconds later it switched to 1:43, and back to 1:38....

This went on for about 10 minutes. It's never happened before or since, at least not that I've noticed. There may have been some strange malfunction going on with my computer (which was relatively new and top of the line), but I can't determine if that's a likely answer or just an "Occam" style guess. At the time it felt quite like "someone" or "something" was toying with me....in an innocuous way.

Interesting synchronicity though, that this was the first thread I came across after I was thinking of the time mix-up incident I experienced a few years ago.

The first part is due to a drop in you isp bandwidth which is common kind of like speed and distance ( faster the bandwidth will be the least amount of time)
something down or uploading in the background

As for the time displacement it could be lack of sleep or just a Saturnfx said maybe medically related or you could be like me im the worlds worst a transposing number (I see one and think is another )

Just try to make note of what and when and if it becomes relay intense I would run to my local med. man as fast as could

Did any of those "missing time" events happened around the 7-8th or 15th of january ? I experienced something similar.

Waking up during a dream, going back to sleep, then waking up again with the same time on my clock. But it could be just a coincidence, nothing like time that goes back.

Some people in the Grey Area or at Skunk Works will tell you that it's because the harvest has begun

Believe what you want.

Much love to you too

The first part is true. I have also noticed, with respect to clocks, that some are calibrations are off on the ones I own. The iHome is always losing time as compared to other clocks in the house.

About 8 months ago, my digital alarm clock started gaining a few minutes every day over the clock on my lap top and my cable box. I thought maybe I was hitting buttons when the alarm went off, thus "ticking" the clock forward a few minutes. However, I would reset the clocks so that they were synchronized...and it kept doing it...even on the days when I slept in and had no alarm set.

So, I purchased a new digital alarm clock, thinking that would solve my problem. Nope, the new clock does the same thing. Both the old and new clocks always gained in time and never lost time. While my cable box and my lap top have always remained synchronized w/o exception.

Now, I know I'm not crazy, as my wife has witnessed all of this too. Only thing I can figure is than maybe I have too many electronic devices plugged into the power strip outlet. And that by "overloading" the wall outlet, it is somehow affecting the digital alarm clock.

It certainly is a strange phenomenon. I sure would like to know what is causing it.

OP for reminding me to put this story out here, as I have been meaning to do it for months now....or is it years?

S&F

Well, if it's true then I'm happy to watch the fireworks.
What happens, happens and Synchronicity leads the way.

It seems a bit odd these 'time incidents' have all been in the past few weeks...!?

GitM - has it happened to you since?

Much love...

I've been getting increased deja vu moments for the past few years, its actually starting to creep me out. I've also been guessing TV shows, movies, songs, appearances (tv), and general scenarios in advance more regularly nowadays too, not much to report on time jumping though.
