Do you ever experience Deja Vu? What exactly is it? Is it something that you've experienced in a dream, and then becomes reality or is it something that has happened in a past life? Is it an electrical disturbance in the brain, or none of the above?


I used to experience this quite often when I was younger but no so much these days.

its a glitch in the matrix ;)

8) Haven't we had this thread before it seems very familiar to me:)

i'm waiting for some deja vue from the acid i took in the eighties

I read somewhere that it's your subconscious seeing something a nanosecond before you register it. When the 2 bits if your brain get together it seems like deja vu. Whatever, it's scientific and mundane not spooky.

Me too, but not anymore, must the brain cells dying off.
Mine used to be really vivid, places I had visited and things I had done, weird.

I have experienced Deja Vu in my younger days, places I have never been before were so familiar that I knew I had visited that exact spot. However, It has not happened again for many years.

Didn't you just ask me about Deja Vu Lickszz?

I thought this was interesting (I'm becoming very proficient on Google!):

Id like to know the answer to that myself. From my recallection of it, it was never a case of "ive been here before" type thing. My experiance of it was something... cant expain what!...just lasted for a few seconds and I could'nt quite put my finger on it - so to speak. And then it went away.

Seems strange why it accurs less now were older. You never know there might be some decades old top secret global conspiracy going on to ensure we all "conform to the norm" using tv to transmit subliminal messages- constant negative images, maybe even chemicals placed in food products that through time reduce seratonin levels designed to thwart the brains true capabilities that were all born with:- Just a theory!:rolleyes:

"Do you ever experience Deja Vu?"
Have I not read this post before?!?! I think I have!!!

I also have had these DEJA VU THINGS BEFORE.....

Not quite sure what they are but are interesting!

its a glitch in the matrix ;)Ah man!!

I don't agree with that. I actually got it really strong this morning, as it's happening I know what's coming for the next few seconds and then as it happens the feeling gets weirder, sometimes it's like a bit of a premonition of something to come; for example once when I had deja vu I remembered that whenever I had experienced the same event that was taking place now (in a dream or whenever it was) that something really bad had happened straight afterwards, something out of my control; then it came true. Sometimes I can do something about it, like this morning just after it happened I turned around to my husband and told him what happened and said that when I 'saw' this before we had a horrible argument so whatever happens just don't argue with me today okay!! From then I was on my best behaviour and even though an opportunity came up for us to have a problem within the next hour, I conscientiously refused to allow it to happen. A lot of people will be skeptical and try to explain things like this away but I know it's real.

That sounds more like a premonition. Do you see yourself as a bit of a psychic?

Not a psychic, no, but I think it runs in my family to be extra 'sensitive' to certain things; my husband takes the mick out of me and says its from the chinky side of my family :hihi:.

can science explain how i suddenly know i am going to get a phone call and a minute later i get one ,can it explain that i told my son we were going to bump into sue who we hadent seen for 17 years and she walks around the corner ? i doubt it , some things happen without cause or reason or a scientific answer

Coincidences are not evidence for anything.

The fact that this never ever ever happens is a pretty good reason to believe that there is no such thing as psychic powers.

Maybe not, but can science explain how I knew, 6 1/2 years ago, that you would argue with something I wrote?

If your aware of certain events that are about to happen before they actually happen, then there must be a scientific answer. It would be a shame to dismiss it cos you dont understand it.

They say that if you lose one of your sences the others become more acute in order to compensate, but most of us wont experience this. I suppose its like the ticking clock in a quiet room that you dont hear...untill something brings your attention to it and reminds you thats its ticking.

Maybe not, but can science explain how I knew, 6 1/2 years ago, that you would argue with something I wrote?thats easy to explain you put it on a forum where it was bound to get replied to ,but you didnt know i would reply ,because at the time of posting i was not a member on this forum,had you put depoix will reply to this in 6 and 1/2 years time all that time ago then you would have a case
