    I think it also has to do with scale in time vs years lived. For example, if you are 9 years old, 3 years is a third of your entire life; while for a 30 year old, it’s a tenth. So time feels faster for the latter.

      Yeah. There’s also “processing speed” slowling down. And literally information traveling along our neurons happening slower due to plaque buildup.

      It’s not just one thing, it’s a bunch of things.
