Did lockdown drag, and can you even remember how you spent your time when you weren’t living under coronavirus restrictions? For many, 2020 has been the year in which the constancy of time was lost to the upheaval of coronavirus. Of particular interest was how quickly time felt like it was passing during lockdown in comparison to “normal” (that long-ago time before lockdown). In general, the days passed more quickly for younger people who were socially satisfied, busy, and experiencing low levels of stress. Unlike in the UK, in France and Italy, lockdown passed more slowly than normal for most people rather than being split 40/40 as in my April study.
