The stoner stereotype suggests that chronic weed smokers seem ‘slower’ than the Average Joe; a theory that has led to the erroneous belief that marijuana lowers your IQ. As far as time is concerned, units of measurement such as minutes, hours and days are unquestionably human constructs. However, there is no question that time does pass, seemingly linearly, and the aging process reduces even the strongest individuals into weaker ones over the course of decades. When you are stoned, time appears to pass far more slowly or more quickly than when you are sober. Of course, marijuana doesn’t actually slow down or speed up time. Rather, it alters your perception of time, which is a different thing entirely. In the case of weed users, they usually underestimate the amount of time that passes — bad news if you have a job interview that day! In any regard, in this article we try and get to the bottom of the question “ why does weed slow down time .” It may take a little complex neurochemistry knowledge to fully understand the process, but we’ll do our best to explain.
