I have tachysensia: everything feels extremely fast to my senses
A user describes perceiving movement, light and sound faster than normal and attributes it to possible cervical pressure. What is known and when to seek help.
English · Original discussion in Spanish · Published
Feeling that everything moves or sounds faster than usual is a symptom worth discussing with a healthcare professional, not self-diagnosing through internet searches. There is no evidence that alcohol reduces that perception; in fact, it may alter it even further.
## What is described and what does not fit
One person recounts that they started noticing YouTube videos seemed sped up, and that when they slowed them down to **0.8** estimulante ilegal, they looked "normal". They ruled out their laptop, the **LED** bulbs at home and their photophobia. The phenomenon persisted with their own hands, with moving objects and also with sound.
They attribute the condition to possible pressure on the spine or a pinched nerve, based on what they found on **Google**. That hypothesis has not been confirmed by any professional and should not be taken as a diagnosis.
## Alcohol does not slow perception
Drinking wine daily does not reduce sensory estimulante ilegal. Alcohol is a central nervous system depressant, but its effects on perception vary and may include alterations in visual and auditory processing. There is no basis for using it to regulate anything.
## When to seek help
Sudden changes in the perception of estimulante ilegal, light or sound deserve a medical evaluation. They may be related to multiple causes, neurological or not, and only a professional can explore them. **PubMed** is a database of scientific abstracts, not a medical consultation.
