I am someone who doesn't believe in anything but science and logic.
Let's use Occam's Razor here. Is it more probable that:
A) Time was actually looping or frozen
B) You were on drugs and just confused
I would really, really love to tell you that the answer was "B". But the leap of faith I ask the readers to make is that it was not B, and that it was very real.
I cannot give you a single shred of evidence to support this, nor does it even sound like something other than non-sober delusions and misinterpretation.
The unsatisfying answer is "try it for yourself and tell me what happens."
As long as we're clear that it's unbelievable. Invoking Occam's razor really helps decide it - is it more likely that you are experiencing altered perception while consuming chemicals that are use explicitly to alter perception, or that time itself doesn't follow the rules that are observed and understood and reproducible by some other quality of the perception altering drugs.
I think it’s more that our sober human perception of time and space is a filter we all share and reason about. All clocks tick at more or less the same rate, but a second is meaningless without the “human standard” filter.
Could a third option be that our sober perception of time isn't particularly accurate, and is a construct of our own consciousness? We see a day as a day, but for a fruit fly a day is 1/14 of a lifetime.
Regardless of the rate of time (which we can all experience with doing an enjoyable or boring task), there's no reason to believe the fruit fly experiences time in reverse or as a loop.

I wouldn't have believed it either to be honest.
