Deja vu

[Makko]

How often do you get it? I only recently discovered that it's not that common for most people. I get at least one almost every day.

I like the sensation of time as a lake rather than a river.

One a month? to say something. I don't like the feeling, it makes me feel uncomfortable, like a reminder that my brain is rotting. The only one I enjoyed was one that coincided with a dream I had long ago. I dream a thousand stupid things a day, at some point an event in reality had to resemble my dreams.

when i was younger, i had them all the freaking time. they became fewer and fewer, and the decrease in them correlate with my increased emotional clarity. Correlation is not causation, but if i had to bet, i would say it has something to do with it.

 

[BeansOfRequirement]

I get triple and quadruple deja vus but almost never single deja vus. Not super often either, maybe a few times per month.

 

[Fakereality]

Many times in my life I have feel things happening to me which I felt already have happened when I was a kid I used to saw a illusion of a sad drunk man drinking on top of a roof with sad or somewhat depressed expression whenever I watch that roof from afar, but the moment I got close the man seemingly dissappear never understood what it was and scared me to a degree though now I can somewhat understand what it may have been.

 

[Mentalmick]

Once or twice per year I would of thought.

 

[Soulless Angel]

all the time, I hate it, I have to ask if someone is in the room with me to do something random, something to throw the feeling off! I hate it

I feel like I get deja vu a couple of times a month? I experience something kinda similar, jamais vu, far more often.

This is interesting. I would argue that it's also accurate.

 

[pixie]

This life is deja vu. Perhaps I've lived it already

I would argue that it's also accurate.

Would you mind spelling out the argument? I have never given this topic much thought, so it would be interesting to see your stance on it.

Ya know, I don't have an argument. Dunno why I said I "would argue". The idea that time isn't a river, aka not linear, just seems plausible. Sorry for the poor word choice.

yeah. It was dumb to say.

Nobody would believe this. But I used to kinda, well, foresee the future. (Torches and Pitchforks down, I'll explain.)

You don't really know when you're going to see or hear a dejavu. I've read that scientists believes that it happens when your brain messes up with your long-term and short-term memory storage. You kinda store something on you're seeing at the moment on your long-term memory and your brain makes a whole mess trying to remember "Where" you saw it something you're seeing just at the moment.

However I used to dream about something or have some kind of though of something, like remembering a music, a movie or a passage in a book and then on the same day I see it somewhere, a billboard, on tv or radio. If it were just a devaju I wouldn't have thought of that hours earlier, so it was difficult to explain.
Yet, my Precognition X-Men powers never worked for the lottery numbers, of course. I guess it was countered by my other superpower, Superhumanly Bad Luck.

Memories aren't stored in the brain.

Had one or two of these, haters would say it's due to dreaming consisting of the brain spamming scenarios:

It's the Hippocampus I think. But it's not actually memories that are stored, but the synapses of a given time. I might be completely wrong. Well, I will see if I can read about it later, if my condition let me.

Yup. I'll still believe it's due to my precognition powers, because it's cool.

Did you see the world on fire or was that just me

Did you see the world on fire or was that just me

I saw the world on fire, screams of agony everywhere.
And the rivers ran red, abyssal monsters that with the dead were fed.

On top of the world the laugh of a woman echoed through the sky
Louder and happier everytime she heard someone cry,

At a throne were sitting Makko the Witch.
Delighted she was, having fulfilled her evil wish.

Often when I ruminate about ideas for new threads I have deja-vus. But also about certain dreams that haunt me.

everyday because pain everyday

Maybe if we necro all her posts at once she'll return.

Had a little flutter of hope when I saw her pfp in the list of recent threads, her posts were always interesting to read.

I never had it when I was a child or a teen but lately I have them more and more. I did, however, have some precognitive dreams as well. Tbh nothing seems real these past three years.
