Yeah I usually have a lot of luck remembering my dreams. In the dreams a situation with a loved one goes horribly wrong. Big argument, big blowup, never friends again. But when the deja vu event starts playing out IRL nothing bad ever happens and I think 'thank God it wasn't like in the dream'.

[@beeftips1628]

My Deja vu does feel like I’ve experienced it in a dream before too, but no impending doom. More like confusion which I assume is common for deja vu. Also a couple times I’ll have deja vu inception where my Deja vu is of me having a deja vu moment.

That is exactly my experience. I dream an event, in the first person, and the event then happens later and plays out the same way.

[@TheFoxTailPalm]

I've had partial seizures all my life, though I never knew they were seizures until I was in high school. The auras I experience that warn me a seizure is coming is always a feeling of deja vu. But more like a sensation that I have dreamt the current scenario before. When I would experience these auras when I was growing up I LOVED the sensation so I never complained about it to my parents. It felt like a high, and it still does even today. But now since the goal is for me to stop having seizures I believe I have actually mentally stopped a potential seizure by concentrating and reminding myself that I have never dreamt of this situation. That everything that is happening is completely knew. That it's all in my head. My therapist referred to it as me "grounding myself". It has often worked, but since I enjoy the sensation so much I find myself having trouble trying to ground myself.

[@Just_a_Piano_]

You know, I've been having similar things and I think this could possibly be what it is. It feels like a random memory pops up, and I can't tell if it's familiar or unfamiliar, or if it's a dream or a real memory, and I instantly forget what it was and I just feel like I have a hole in my stomach and just lay on the floor on the verge of tears

@@Just_a_Piano_: If you are having frequent episodes of deja vu, feelings of dread, experiencing out of body sensations, having odd smells, that feeling in your stomach is a sign...you are most likely have a form of epilepsy called focal or partial focal aware seizures, these can develop into tonic clonic seizures and that can lead to death. you should get checked out by a neurologist asap.

Last year it happened in novemeber, january, febuary, and march then didn't happen for a long time. Maybe happened at some point in the summer I honestly don't remember, then happened again recently.

I recall this one time at college when I was upset about not having anymore deja vu's because I took them as a sign that I was on the right path, so then immediately after sharing this thought with my new friend, I had one, but this time I didn't announce it, I just went with it and it lasted over five minutes, during which, I was conversing with myself about this new friend I was with, and even though I knew everything that was about to happen- I couldn't change it, I was living in a past dream and had no control over my actions. This freaked me out so much I thought I was crazy, and that there was no such thing as free will, we were all just acting our parts in this pre-scripted play, that's why everything seems so automatic sometimes.

[@nyel3]

ive had an extremely similar experience with deja vu. sometimes ill be walking and ill look around and literally know exactly what I need to do as if I'm playing as a character in a open world video game, similarly to gta. i honestly feel crazy when I tell them life feels like that. I've also come to the conclusion (on an entirely different note) that our true forms (don't ask who I'm referring to when I say our because I don't know, but if u agree you're apart of the group) arent human, but beings whose forms are incomprehensible to the human eye, an that we all have a goal to achieve, or mission to accomplish by the end of our lives, and that if you die without completing your mission, u have to try again. deja vu is basically me remembering certain parts of my mission and how to complete it/letting me know I'm going down the right path in life, to complete this goal.

I realize that science has it's own explanations based on experimentation. However, we still struggle with brain studies. We are improving though. I believe in the the multiverse. We exist in many places simultaneously. For some, a connection between these realities can be found in the subconscious mind. That's my opinion. I know that may sound outlandish, but there just isn't a better way to explain the events I have experienced. I can't write it off to a brain tumor, and those who have been there have sometimes been freaked out by it. Random chance sometimes? Sure. Absolutely. Doesn't happen nearly as often anymore, but there are reasons for that as well. Do I think that this feeling can sometimes be attributed to scientific explanations sighted in this video? Yes. I do. Just not every time. One of the first steps is keeping a dream journal. I know. Weird, right? It helps you to remember your dreams better. Bring out details that you will eventually forget, as most do with dreams. I don't do that anymore, because I don't need too. Learning to remember dreams is a skill, just like controlling dreams. You get better with practice.

For months I wondered what would cause such an emotional yet heartwarming embrace between us two as we're not the kind of people to just do that sort of thing. A month or two goes by and we were celebrating at my brother's for his birthday. My sister and I got in an argument to the point we were both upset but everyone turned on me. Then I find myself in the exact same spot with my dad, saying the exact same things and doing the exact same things. The tones of voice and the pain I felt in that moment was identical to my dream. 2) we had a family holiday to Mallorca in the later days of September. Again, a good month or two beforehand, I had a dream that we were all sat around a table and I had two sex on the beach cocktails in front of me. With my brother's partner's sister sitting on my left. At this point in time I didn't even know she was going. A few days into the holiday we sat on that exact table in the exact same order. I made the exact same movements and had the exact same drinks in front of me. This has happened to me for years, since I was young. To this day idk why it keeps happening

The thing about deja vu with me is that I think I have experienced something already, but I know I genuinely did. It is all about how weird it is that I am in that specific of a situation as I was before. It's not really like a thing that has to do anything with routine, It's more like my brain recognises the oddly coincidence of a situation that has already happened. And I'm pretty sure it has, I just can't recall it because my memory isn't that great, and it's nothing too special to remember, but my brain can still connect the dots. Is that even deja vu? I don't even know if I have ever felt the real deja vu. Maybe what I am describing really is the deja vu everyone is talking about...

[@celdan807]

I’ve had several dreams where I completely predicted an exact situation with every precise detail and a period of time later have it occur in real life exactly as I had dreamed. When I was a kid (middle school and before ) i would experience several bouts of this happening, however, when it did happen, i would experience an indescribable pain. Essentially, this is how it would go: 1. Something would trigger the start of this “deja by” feeling and I would begin to predict exactly what would happen around me for the next 30-60 seconds all from the recollection of my dream/memory and things would happen exactly as I was predicting them to 2. As I was getting to the end point of my recollection I would begin to feel an indescribable “headache” (not even remotely similar to any headache or migraine but it’s the best word I could think of) which is the worst pain I’ve EVER experienced (as in, this headache thingy was the most painful thing I’ve ever experienced in my life) for the next 30-90 seconds 3. I was always fully conscious and was able to even speak to people around me and whatever even during the pain moments 4. Then it would just go away like clock work. Eventually, after experiencing it so much, I was able to prepare myself for what was to come whenever I would begin to feel this very specific unusual deja vu feeling (it’s very different from regular deja vu I’ve experienced) For some reason, I completely stopped experiencing this around my first year of high school. I also stopped being able to remember any dreams when I’d wake up and began naturally waking up after 4-5 or so hours of sleep for the rest of highschool until the end of my senior year. Towards the second half of my senior year, I abruptly developed idiopathic hypersomnia and could not go one night without waking up after 10+ hours of sleep in the middle of a dream where I was able to recall the last 30 min-1 hour+ of said dream. My family and went to neurologists where they found absolutely nothing wrong when doing brain scans. No tumors, no signs that would point to chronic migraines (which I do also experience), nothing, nada, no explanation. To this day, I still have idiopathic hypersomnia, however, that weird Deja vu thingy happened for the first time after around 5 years during my first year of university but without the pain (just the deja vu) and hasn’t happened since. I’ve tried looking into simple partial seizures and every type of epilepsy since that seemed to be the most similar to what I was experiencing, but my brain scans had no signs of any seizures whatsoever and the only similarities I had in common with a seizure disorder was “Deja vu” and head pain. I know it wasn’t false memory creation/recollection because I got into a habit in middle school of writing down any dreams I did remember (since it was pretty rare at the time) and confirmed several times that the dreams I had experienced did in fact line up with the exact scenario that would play out when I would experience the “deja vu.” I’m currently studying neuroscience and hope one day I’ll find an answer to explain whatever the hell I had happen to me as a kid.

My experiences of Deja Vu are almost always in very familiar places (like at home) and almost always make me feel that, in a minute, something bad is about to happen. Sometimes, I'm 'aware' of what that bad thing may be, such as someone bringing me bad news. But then, nothing happens. The experiences usually last several minutes too.

My experienc with Deja Vu is quite frequent, and most of the times it's just that feeling. But sometimes it goes exactly as I "remember" it go in Deja Vu. For example, me and my friends were talking about board games and I suddenly had a thought that this has happened before. But went on with the conversation. It matched the one I remembered for the most part. We even discussed the same board games the second time, despite the fact that my friends claimed that this conversation never happened before. And they generally have their memory being about 5x better than mine (based on statistics).

I've had pathological deja vu until I was 14. I was born with epilepsy, and a tumor on my right temporal lobe. At 7 I had the tumor taken out, at 14 I had my RTL taken out. For that time, and still to this day (albeit far less frequently) I'd have dreams of future events that I couldn't recall until the moment it happened. When they did, I could recall how long ago I had the "premonition." Eg:"Oh, I had this dream 6 months ago," or "Hey, I had this dream a couple years ago when I was in my old bedroom!"

[@WTheW564]

Sometimes I get deja vu about a situation that, upon thinking about it, I realize I actually had experienced before, it's just that the situation was so specific that it felt like it couldn't have happened before in the exact same way. For example, I might be in my bedroom getting dressed when I see a jacket hanging up and remember the person who gave it to me, and then I might see a book and remember a part in it, and then I might get deja vu as well as the thought of predicting what will happen next when I see another book, because I had been there before and done those exact things in that exact order. I also believe I have experienced times when my brain had to "catch up with itself," if you will, just as was described in this video

[@owenc.q8514]

The same, but I was having deja vus very commonly, I mean 6 deja vus per month, seeing what exactly was going to happen, but not knowing how I could remember it, once I had the premonition, I wrote it down before forgetting it then when I saw what was going to happen, I was able to alter the deja vu and no more deja vus for me, I haven't had a deja vu since that. my theory its that like the einstein theory time its relatively, the past, present and future its happening at the same time, that means that maybe the deja vus are only flashing moments that are mades for keep the original moment making you do the exact thing.

[@lottieew135]

I started having simple partial temporal lobe seizures when I was 18. I had them when I was asleep, only knowing I had one because they woke me up at the end with a bad sense of deja vous and a feeling I was going to vomit. My GP didn't believe me. However, the triage nurse definitely believed me when she saw my left pupil not reacting when I had a seizure as she was doing a pupil reaction test. That got me my referral to a neurologist, who definitely believed Mr. Had me do an evoked potential test, which showed something slowing down the signals from my left eye to my occipital lobe. I then got an MRI, followed by a brief hospital stay where I got a lumbar puncture and more bloods done. A few months after, I was given a diagnosis of clinically isolated symptom of MS, as well as a diagnosis of temporal lobe epilepsy. The neurologist showed me my MRI and explained the cause of my seizures. I remember having a simple partial seizure in my now-husband's car, and when I came out of it, I told him I had one. He freaked out because his best friend has generalised seizures. He didn't know what to do when the friend had a seizure, because husband wasn't the lead. However, the friend had a generalised seizure on our way home on night. Me, husband, and friend. I immediately went into "Emergency Charlotte," bringing the knowledge from my nursing studies into it. I got the friend into a recovery position, told husband to start a timer on his phone, and when the friend came out we both walked him home. I also called the friend's ICE contact when we got to friend's house to let her know. Me and husband then went on our way back to our house. I told husband why I got the friend into the recovery position, and why I had husband start a timer on his phone. I'm happy husband remembered what to do when I had my 1st generalised seizure. Thankfully, we were both at home, and so when I was walking around upstairs, calling out husband's name, he came rushing to me and saw me drop and shake. That was my 1st one, but now they're over 5 mins or more than 3 in a row. Those ones are called status epilepticus and need paramedics to see to me. I also need to spend 1 or more nights in hospital. Husband wasn't with me when I woke up for my 1st status epilepticus event because it was in the covid lockdown, but he's been with me for the ones I've had out of lockdown. Husband remembers the names of the medication I'm on, and so he can pass that information onto the medical staff with no issues. I'm scared of having a seizure when he's at work, but my carer knows what to do.

[@revitalisedupholstery2632]

A Deja Vu happens because of this, most people don’t remember their dreams when they wake up, but the dream has been stored in the subconscious memory, so when people get the Deja Vu feeling, it’s their brain accessing that subconscious memory, so technically, they are experiencing that event in time, for a second time, the first time was in a dream they previously had, which was stored in the subconscious memory, and that’s why people find Deja Vu so strange, as they have no recollection of having that memory or where the memory came from, everything in the universe has already happened, and Deja Vu is proof of this, it’s called Eternalism, past present and future coincide as 1.

It always comes to me as a dream I’ve had a long time prior, and then suddenly a detail comes into alignment with another and then I’m thrown into the deja vu

Sure enough a perfect walking stick was there and I picked it up, just like I remembered I already had.

I get deja vu fairly often but I usually write it off as life's redundancies or a trick ir the mind. This is with the exception of one deja vu moment I vividly remember that I can't explain to this day. It goes like this: Some time in late 2018 or early 2019, I remember one day using the bathroom in my home and spacing out. When I spaced out, I day daydreamed myself sitting at a table in my university's dining hall. I first looked at the patturned wall of the area I was in. Then I looked down at my textbook open to a specific page with some distinct diagrams. I next looked over to a bowl of Icecream I was eating. Lastly, I looked at the table and saw a pearly white cloth with strings coming off of it. I disticly remember snapping out if spacing out and having the distinct thought: "what was that cloth on the table?" And being confused for a bit trying to figure it out before going on with my life. Fast forward to 2021. I began to get a feeling of deja vu. I first looked at the panneling of the wall in my dining hall. I then looked down at my quantum mechanics text book, realising that I'd seen this page some time in tge past due to the distinct set of orbital cloud diagrams. I then truned and saw the icecream. Lastly, and most oddly, I looked at the table and saw the cloth. In that moment, I remembered that daydream in the bathroom where I was confused and had the distinct thought if "Oh my god, the cloth was a washable cloth covid mask!" I used cloth covid masks that I would tie behind my head ti secure it to my face, so it was absolutely nothing like a medical mask in terms if looks, so that wouldn't be why I've felt that sensation. Keep in mind the original daydream was far before covid started. That one always gets me mentally as one of the oddest mental experiences I'd had.

I used to have Deja Vu a lot more frequently when I was a child. I can't remember exactly how many times but I feel like it happened a few times a year or more. As an adult, it happens a lot less, maybe once in a decade. The strange thing is when they happen, I get a strange odor that smells metallic, almost like burnt toast. And the thing that I notice that clues me in that it's happening is usually the smallest little detail. Like bubbles rising from a water cooler. It's so weird. The biggest Deja Vu I ever had was upon first meeting my Mother-In-Law. I had just met her and was thirsty from our travels and went for water from the cooler. As the bubbles were rising I had the feeling I had seen this exact water cooler before and these bubbles rose just like this! I know it sounds ridiculous, but it was the bubbles rising that set me off. The smallest thing, that would be hard to memorize an exact pattern of bubbles rising through water. It's so random. But that's what did it. Hard to explain, I don't understand it myself.

The few times in my life experiencing Deja Vu, it really does feel like you've been there and done that exact same thing in that exact moment before. It's almost like what's happening in that brief moment is also being played out at the same time in an alternate Universe.

[@BioLivbanon]

I never just "feel" something. Usually with my deja vu's, as many others say here, is a whole "memory" that never could have happened before. It... It's like seeing the future at the same time as it happens. Everyone is exactly on the right spot, they say the exact same thing, the one who was quiet is quiet, I do the exact same thing as I did (or "do"...). It is extremely interesting. And just a tiny bit scary, since we don't know why yet. I have had different types as well. Some mentioned that they dreamed the future and then it became a deja vu. I have also had that, but only once or twice, and only as a kid.

[@lawtrox]

I did read that deja vu is triggered by a fail in our memory, and the brain fills a failed memory with the current information is going thorough your receptors (eyes, ears, nose, etc), so from your present screen of conscious you have the sensation that you saw exactly what u are seeing currently, but is filling something from the past

[@BioLivbanon]

@@lawtrox Yes, I have heard of that myself, but I have trouble believing it. Other theories from this video seem more plausible, in that case. Mostly because, how would the brain "forget" a memory, or even "skip" a moment in process? And then I am talking about fully functional humans. And more than that, many have written here about long sensations much more complex than "remembering a smell from sometime". So personally, I have doubts on that theory being the correct one.

Had a dream when I was a small child. I was "flying" down a dirt road and the end of the forested dirt road was a purple house. At the time we lived in Southern California. Fast forward many years later my family moved to Montana. I was around 13 and one of my friends had found a dog and she had asked me to help her find the owner. We rode our bikes around for hours knocking on doors and at one point we were riding down a dirt road which was a long drive way and yes it was forested. And as we moved down the road I could see the house at the end of the road. And there it was. The purple house. Suddenly it hit me that I had seen this place before. I had several moments like this as a kid but nothing as profound as the house. And as I got older it happens less and less to a point where I don't even think I have these experiences anymore.

[@rjones6219]

Fifty years ago, I was discussing this very issue with a fellow computer engineer. He had a theory, which he based on how a computer's memory works. Even, though in those days we used magnetic core memories, they would decay with time. Therefore, a part of the computer hardware was tasked with refreshing every memory location. Even though the memory was being used, the hardware, in between fetching instructions, would cycle through the whole of memory, read the contents of a location, then write it back again He, surmised, that our mind works in a similar way, and that, unbeknown to us, we refresh every memory location. His theory was, that when we got that déjà vu feeling, what happened was that, just as our brain, stored the memory, it was also immediately refreshed, giving us that strange feeling. I liked his idea, and have kept it ever since. Thanks Phil.

I have had Deja vu several times and more often when I was younger. The most notable experience was, at about 10 years old, after I had a biking accident where I went over the handlebars and landed on my face. The deja vu was felt just afterwards when my friend that I was riding with checked to see how I was doing and was taking care of my wounds. It felt like I was living out a dream where the setting was exactly the same and everything that she said was the same. I don’t think I said anything to her because it felt so strange and in a weird way I wanted to keep that feeling going and thought if I said something the feeling would stop. I think the Deja vu may have helped me feel less pain as I was bleeding from my upper lip and may have suffered a concussion (this was the 80s so we weren’t wearing helmets.)

Well at least I know that I'm not the only one.

I'm actually too scared to keep a dream journal because if it's true that the dream is really first my perception of reality would shatter and I'd probably go crazy

[@kbeats5289]

This is precisely how I've experienced every Deja vu episode. Always as a dream first. Which at the time of the dream I just think is a rather high quality, vivid dream and nothing more. Until that is that I live it. And see the scenes whether short or long again. My longest deja vu to date was watching all of the very last Saw movie in theaters. First in a dream. And then, again when it actually came to the big screen. What was truly amazing was that I somehow dreamt the entire film accurately. It was... quite trippy.

[@richvandervecken3954]

The problem with your assessment is that on several occasions in my life I have told people about events that were going to happen in our lives months before it happened specifically so they would know it was coming. These specific events involved new cars that were no where in the picture at the time I mentioned it and especially painful betrayal at a time the other person insisted they loved only me. I can tell when my dreams depict a future event because they are just to dam real and contain totally trivial everyday events with a single exception. When I was growing up they would happen at least once a year. However as an adult they have only happened twice in the last 42 years.

3:14 while there are different variants of "deja'vu's" the most vivid one I had was exactly that.

I knew the next person's name that was about to be read, as well as after that students results mine is about to be read and I knew which grade I would get. at that point and blown away by excitement I started repeating to my friends "I'm next I'm next, and I'll get 3 (or C depends where u at)" they looked at me like what kind of high am I at, and then the exact thing happened. the look on their faces and the smoking of my blown-out mind..

I'll try to keep it short and to the point. I recommend anyone to read this, and I understand being skeptical and taking things with a grain of salt. Just remember, No Studying and No Practicing = Having No Say in the Matter in something being True or Untrue. I'll add that I am open to some questions. In my experience, when I had deja vu, I had it more than a few times in just one long camping trip. It was a lot to me. I most definitely have not been to any of these places. For me, it did seem like 'visions' of the near future. When I started this trip, the mindset was that I'm going to live in the moment, God has got us covered no matter what. We will be peaceful, loving and kind to one another, and do good things. For example, like giving away food to a stranger in need. I also interacted with different people from different cultures on this long road trip. I did notice as days went by, that I was starting to develop this sort of calmness. I believe, whether I knew it at the time or not, that in my head I was battling these negative thoughts and behaviors, and the "voices," so to speak, in my head were starting to get quieter. Until one day, I woke up in a tent, and could not find the words to describe how peaceful and loving I felt. I was crying tears of joy and was so happy. My heart was met with such peace and calmness, I think I understand what few understand, when they talk about feeling like you are one with everything. It's like my spirit was just flowing with life, not through life. I also couldn't think of a bad thought, it seemed. Lol Of course, I believe what helped me to get to this experience personally, was having someone I love by my side. Our hearts tender for one another, and we wanted to help each other grow. She knew more about God and Jesus than I did, I never even really read the Bible around this time. Yet, the things I witnessed, all the things I experienced throughout the entire trip, which there were some difficult obstacles, yet there were many times where I see God was there. Showing us truly that he's got our back, that there is no need for worry. It really would make anyone wonder. When I contacted her later in life, I asked her what that was. She says it is the Holy Spirit. When I actually took the time to reflect on everything, truthfully and honestly, God revealed himself to me, to us, and can be found in the most simplest of things in life. Like waking up and opening a tent, getting met with a Quadruple Rainbow Over the Yellowstone Lake, with the Snowy Mountains in the background. Having the LAST available spot out of the approximate 400 camping spots, and it being the BEST spot. God's timing, is IMPECCABLE. Loves surprises! I know I'm typing a lot here, so this leads me to my theory. Considering my experiences, I used to think it would mean that I'm on the right track, I theorize that perhaps something of the divine is trying to speak to you? I theorize that, once you quiet your inner self, quiet your mind, and dig deep inside of yourself, and on top of that practice good deeds, with at least a little Faith in God, in Jesus, you will be met with beautiful experiences. And if you are persistent, I see that God will offer his Grace. It takes time, and never think that it'll be easy. Us people tend to hold onto habits that do no good. Maybe one doesn't believe in God. I think that is silly, but your choice! (: It doesn't change the fact that if you dig deep in yourself, and break any chain that's keeping you held back, and practice genuine love and tenderness, that something beautiful would occur. That Deja Vu to me, was a mix of Faith, learning to have a quiet mind, learning to unconditionally love and be tender, and unlearning bad habits, and well, also learning that everything will be okay. I suppose that's the Faith talking. Much Love!!

That's actually a misconception caused by your brain making connections and ad libbing. Your actual dream is much more vague, maybe the idea of having A conversation with that person and a vague idea of a background, but then when you actually have a conversation, your brain fills in details that weren't there before with what you're seeing at the time. I've had the same sort of thing happen; months before I moved, I dreamt I was putting one of my terrariums in a closet that was attached to the back of the bathroom instead of the bedroom, down to the orientation of counter in front, wall on the left, toilet on the right, and bathtub in the corner opposite both the mirror and closet.
