Time

Time in the Backrooms is different from normal time in any regular part of the world. Backrooms' time seems to be slowed down immensely, which has added effects on the human body. The Backrooms seems to not be linked to any one time zone, which makes knowing the exact time extremely confusing. Watches and digital clocks fail to show time either, with most researchers on Reddit using the time on their posts to measure how much time has passed. As of now, there is no method of properly documenting the specific time of day down to the minute.

Effects on the Human Body
The strange time displacement in the Backrooms is also present in many human bodily functions. The need for food or water is almost nonexistent, though eventually necessary. Many have estimated that an average human need only eat and drink once every "month". However, humans still require regular intervals of sleep. Sleeping is heavily encouraged for survival, as exhaustion can easily make someone less alert to threats or more vulnerable to psychological phenomena. In addition to this, the body's natural healing processes seem to be absent in the Backrooms.

Physical wounds appear to not heal or clot, which can cause massive blood loss or death if even a single small cut is left untreated. Wounds will not stop bleeding or scab over on their own. Bandages or stitches are advised. Almond water is often used as a "cure-all" solution for most wounds, making it very valuable to any explorer.

Day and Night Cycle
There is no specific day and night cycle. However, every 12 "hours" most lights on levels 0-3 will go out for about 3-6 "hours", though there are reports of lights being out for up to 10 hours.
