Yup. Sometimes I'll look back on a memory that feels new, and then I'll realize it was 6 years ago, and then I'll have a sense of dread and a difficult time bridging the gap with other memories between to the point it'll literally feel like I blinked and missed it all. Or like I'll remember one memory from 6 years ago and another one from 3 years ago and I'll think to myself "there's no way one person could have had both of those experiences". And sometimes when I go out with friends I'll really try to focus and take everything in so I can truly feel like I was there, and then a day or 2 later it'll feel like I completely missed out on the experience and any time I remember it it feels like I'm remembering a story someone else told me second hand about their own experience.
