Photos from open German scientists came to a very interesting, almost esoteric conclusion: in a state of deep depression, practically all people perceive the passage of time differently than when they are healthy. For a person in a depressed state, it’s as if time slows down, or even stops. To such a conclusion scientists came by analyzing a large number of scientific papers.
Researchers at the University of Mainz Johannes Gutenberg it is noted that for healthy people time flies very quickly, they sometimes they don’t even have time to get real pleasure from another lived moment. In a depressed state, everything happens just the opposite: time slows down a course for a person or completely stops.
It turns out that in a state of depression, people more accurately evaluate time flow. If you take, for example, a two-minute time segment, the depressing person “measures” it carefully, as said from and to.
In general, German psychologists believe that all people perceive time as a very subjective process that directly depends on situation. Everyone knows that when we are in a hurry or late time flows very fast. But when we start to adjust the time, it, as if in a mockery of us, slows down its course.
