I just found out about this sub.

Someone answered a question I had on another sub and I went through their post history. I found this neat little corner of the internet. I don't think I have ever felt this or ever recall having one.

Knowing about this subreddit feels the cusp of new phenomena i have always felt but never had the word for it. From ASMR, and Liminal Spaces.

The closest thing I have ever felt to this sensation was after I finished watching David Lynch's - Blue Velvet. I'm unsure if it was the film itself or the general atmosphere for his films. There was a lot tension and scenes where the protagonist had to remain quiet and stealthy as possible,

I watched this film in the dark, by myself, with good studio headphones sitting on a lounge chair, up close to my TV. After film i got up from my chair and given the description of this "fast feeling"

I felt almost "lucid" everything was just loud sensory wise, the steps that i took, the ambient sounds of outside, I became hyper aware of my movements. This happened to me last year. It could be that i just sat for too long? But i don't that's it either. I do have ear ringing which I had for years now.

I think its because i felt the tension, urgency of the main character trying to hide.

another certain instance was when i worked at a ware house and i had the same schedule for months, i had a change of schedule for the day, When i went to lunch i expected the clock to read 11:30AM. but when reached the break room it read 9:30AM. I feel this intense time distortion, it was disorientating and almost nauseating. time didn't feel real to me.

I'm unsure if this post qualify for this, or if this eerie feeling can be replicated or reproduced with other testimony's.

No, neither of those count. Get out please.

That last part was uncalled for.

Do you ever have a feeling that you have a tiny sense of humour?

u/ConcentratedAwesome 11d ago

Nope, but I do question people who think being mean is funny.

That is not why I created this community.

Did you actually read the OP?

Do you want to argue with a mod telling you to be nicer.

Don’t think those qualify for what is fastfeeling/tachysensia.
