Clocks Jumping Time While I Sleep

[u/Defiant-Jello-2370]

Over the past 25 years or more whatever electronic clock i may have by my bed on occasion would jump time either forward or backwards by 1 or 2 hours. At first i thought it was a glitch in my alarm clock radio, but it also happened to other alarm clock radios i have used. I have had to stop relying on a regular alarm clock to wake me up in the mornings and had to resort to my cell phone instead for my alarms since clocks set by the internet aren't affected by my presence when i sleep. Does anyone else here have issues with their presence effecting electronic clocks (not the ones set by the internet) while they sleep? Might i add, when i am experiencing emotional or physical pain, i do have a tendency to effect electronics and make them malfunction when i go to touch them.

My mom has a something similar relationship with electronics. Coukd always hear electric whines in devices, many static shocks, tech dont last long in her possession. Always wrote it off as hippy boomers can't tech. I was always the one making the vcr stop flashing 12:00 or setting up our first computer growing up. Classic case of Olds can't new, right? She tore through many cellphones without any physical damage, her ebike lasted a summer and just gave up. I still write it off as "batteries don't die, they are murdered". But recently at a museum my brother and I watch her walk up to an escalator and straight up cast lightning bolt on it. It was like a static discharge but Hollywood level effects for only a split second and the whole rig shut down. Both sides. She turned to us, both dumbstruck at what we witnessed and she said "told you I don't do electric!" And started walking up the escalator now turned stairs. She is a very good organic farmer and likes to read by firelight.

I can relate. When i was in the hospital with my last child after having a C-section, every time they tried bringing in one of those electronic things that reads vitals and they would touch it to me, they would malfunction. They had to keep switching them out until one would work lol. I can't touch a light switch of I'm in extreme physical or emotional pain or angry because i will either blow a fuse or burn out the light switch. Real fun let me tell ya.

For me it wasn’t clocks, but I could change radio stations by waving my hand over the radio. It wasn’t consistent, but when it worked it was a very cool feeling. Sadly, I haven’t been able to get it to work for many years now.
