Time Blindness – Why You Can't Feel Time and What To Do About It

In this raw and real episode of Functioning-ish, Jen tackles one of the most infuriating ADHD realities—time blindness. If you’ve ever had a 3PM appointment hijack your entire day or found yourself doing absolutely nothing until it’s too late to do anything, welcome. You’re not lazy—you’re time blind.

This episode unpacks:

  • What time blindness actually is (hint: it's neurological, not a personality flaw)
  • The brain systems behind the chaos (prefrontal cortex, cerebellum, default mode network, dopamine)
  • Why you freeze or scramble when time gets close
  • The emotional toll of always feeling behind

And most importantly? Practical strategies you can use today to outsmart your brain’s warped sense of time.

⏱️ What You’ll Learn:

  • What “temporal myopia” is and why your brain acts like a 2PM meeting is happening now
  • How time blindness is made worse by perimenopause, stress, and executive dysfunction
  • The two kinds of time blindness: rushing vs freezing (and why both suck)
  • 5 simple tools that actually help

“Time blindness isn’t a discipline issue—it’s a dopamine, working memory, and energy regulation issue. No amount of shame will fix it, but smart support systems can.”
