Do any of you experience deja vu? I just did tonight. I was walking through a crowd of people, carrying a case, and at that same moment, it felt like I had done this already, but I hadn't. This doesn't happen very often, but when it does it can be a little creepy.

 

It's a glitch in the Matrix!

 

mr. anderson.........

i know what you mean, sometime i swear i can change what i did from the last time!

 

I get deja vu all the time.

Just yesterday, I turned right at an intersection, looked at my wife and flicked my cigarette out the window with the same music on the radio. For what seemed to be the second time, but have never done with that stimulus just so exactly the same way.

 

Just this afternoon I was at the liberary reading a superman comic book and I had the fealing that I had done that before.

 

There is an explanantion for it (I read it some-where), I am not good at explaining things but anyway here it goes.

1. You are doing a certain task

2. You forget (for some unknown reason) you are doing the task but not completely (not so much the task itself but the surroundings, smells, people invovled etc., these are easier for the brain to forget rather than the task which you are doing.)

3. You remeber again, and have these feelings you have done this before, that's because you did, you have just partially forgotten what you did, but it's enough to make you think you've done it before.

Time lapsed between steps 2 and 3 is milli-seconds.

 

I have sometimes moments and be sure that I had the same moment month or weeks ago. Sometimes I meet unknown people and be sure that I have met the person some time ago, and this is - in most cases unpossilble....

CMK you should know Deja Vu its a club here in the twin cities where the women take your money. j/k i havent been there since i turned 18.

i get deja vu ALL the time... ill just be with a group of people and swear that they look familiar... maybe in a past life?

 

I experianced DejaVu.....................they even have a website, but I dont think my posting an adult bars website would go over well.

 

I get Vu Ja De...the feeling I've never ever done this before...;-P

Did you ever have a dream about a person or place, then weeks or months later meet that person or go to that place? And you KNOW you've never done either before? I have, and it's a strange feeling. I went to an apartment in LA once, had never even been to LA before, but as soon as I walked in I knew where everything was, knew that there was a certain color tile in the bathroom, and even knew the rug was made of camel hair. And I had never even met the tenants before. How freaky is that?

 

I have Deja vu all the time. The thing nudgey said sounds logical. Do tou think it could be linked to bad memory, cause bad memory "runs" in the family, and i seem to have gotten it cause i cant remember anything. Or maybe its an early symptom of alzheimers... i dont know just ideas.

 

Wow, when I was typing up the original post, I didn't think anyone else would know about the bar Deja Vu.

 

I could SWEAR we've talked about this subject before.......

 

It's an early sign that your brain is starting to mis-route packets of electrons. Pretty soon you will be in a wheelchair with drool on your face.

 

A fellow I work closely with was having the deja vu feelings several times a day. He called his doctor because they were getting more frequent and come to find out he has had a tumor for 10+ years. He is going to be fine, it is benign.

I'm not trying to scare anyone, but when you ask him what symptoms alearted him to it, he will tell you deja vu like feelings.
