I found this thread because this has happened to me again and wanted to find out what it is, obviously its not just me, but strange still no one knows what it is.

It's strange how everyone can recall it happening to them at a young age. My first experience of it was when I was 9/10, and it seemed like an outer body experience. Everything around me seemed so far away, yet it felt like I could see everything so close? If that makes any sense, it's a difficult situation to explain.

I've been having them quite frequently recently, and it seems to occur when I'm on focusing on purely one thing. This can be a thought in my head when i'm in bed, playing a game, reading or doing my coursework.

Although it's a strange feeling, I find that it really does enhance my concentration and my ability to perform these tasks more efficiently. (This may be the feeling of time seeming to move fast however). To me it feels like i'm completely zoned in on something, and maybe thats why time seems to move fast and everything seems to lose all meaning of distance?
