This is really weird.. It always happens to me. Does it happen in your sleep or something? Like I walk somewhere and see something and my mind tells me that Ive been there before. Are these images like dreams you cant remember until you see something? De ja vu is French right, is there an English word for it.
When i was younger I had them more regularly, but nowadays i can't seem to sleep enough to dream about things, only during the day time i can dream, but now i don't have time to sleep as im either at work or uni.
Does anyone else get de ja vu dreams, where you dream of somthing like an event, and then it usually happens but can be after, many weeks, or even months after.
I dreamt something once that i was in a car with some cousins, nothing special, but that was just a dream, and then once about a year later, it happened it was like in my dream, i was in the car, and i froze and though, "! this is scary..."
I guess we all might have experienced something of this matter, but i certainly have it more regularly than the rest, well i used to anyways...
Anyone have that same feeling or experiences? |

| i get this all the time. whenever it happens, my body kind of jerks, but i think jerk is too strong a word to describe it. my mind clicks and boom, deja vu. i thought i was pretty weird but i'm glad to hear that someone else gets this too. |

you mean dreams that predict the future?
i dreamt i was on the toilet once and BOOM - next day i'm in the bathroom and i'm like wtf, i've seen this before.
but i sometimes have dreams within dreams in which i know what's going to happen at the end, it doesn't always go that way, but most of the time it follows the path... kinda like the matrix, each version it's the same but a bit different... the most memorable dream like that is the one i died in at the end. |

| I usually get this feeling when I'm really stoned. I'll be doing something and all of a sudden I feel like I once dreamt about the very same situation. So it's either just the weed talking or it's helping me reach my subconscious and thus helping me remember dreams I had. |

A deja vu is always scary, it happens to me a lot of time!
The baddest one is that I dreamed of me crashing my car when coming back from a club, and it happened 1 month later :( (I wasn't on drug, no alcohol,....clean)
The scariest thing is... did you dream of the futur or did your brain make you think that you dreamed about the futur at the moment you have the deja vu? (very complicated to explain eh :/).
I already saw some explanations like Sport stress,...
It's so strange |

I've never in my life remembered my dream upon waking, so I can't say as though I've ever had the opportunity to experience anything similar, much less actually done so.
My guess is that the cause for you experiencing this phenomenon would be something like confirmation bias. You can't remember your dreams vividly so much later, but subconsciously retain a general notion of what the dream was about. Then, when you encounter a situation which, in a general sense, bears some similarity to that general notion your mind has retained, it suddenly strikes you that the similarity exists. As you think about it more, your mind fills in the gaps in your memory of your dream with the facts from your immediate environment, furthering the illusion that your dream and your actual experience were very similar or the same, when in fact they probably had significant differences.
But I'm no expert - that's just what strikes me as the most reasonable explanation for what you're describing. |
