First Reddit post ever. Just to be clear, I am unsure if this has anything to do with aliens, but after reading a few peoples posts regarding losing track of time while in the car, I figured I’d share my story.
I grew up in Ohio and every summer my family and I would take a trip to Myrtle Beach, SC for a little week long vacation. I want to say I was 6 or 7 when this happened. I remember this clear as day and have never had another experience similar. We were driving back to Ohio from the beach and I want to say we were in Kentucky or Tennessee. It was getting dark and my mom and her significant other were planning to drive through the night. My sister and I were in the back seat. I was sitting there quietly just looking at the road being fascinated by the empty freeway illuminated by the orange street lights. All of the sudden I blinked and it was daylight. I remember being so surprised about it and saying to my mom, “I was just sitting here and all of the sudden it went from night to day. I blinked and it was daytime!” I got the standard response a kid would get from there parents when claiming nonsense, “oh wow really? You must have fallen asleep hard.” And that was that. I’ll be 30 this year, but somehow this memory was strong enough that it has stuck with me this entire time.
Also, I’ve never been a light sleeper. My entire life from being a teenager to now I was diagnosed with insomnia and have been on very strong sleep meds just to attempt to sleep through the night. Sometimes those meds don’t even work, so the idea of me thinking I blinked and 8-10 hours went by was actually me falling asleep didn’t really sit well with me.
I’d be interested to know if anyone has ever experienced anything similar? Thank you for taking the time to read my story and experience.
