Flashbacks/dejavoo

[Guest CattalieChan]

OK, so I have always had these flashbacks to dreams I have had as a result of dejavoo. I just feel I've done something before.

EX. In the days preceeding 7th grade I dreamt what the classroom would be like. Then, as a freshmen, I walked into a classroom, and had a flashback to that dream, and the rooms were similar.

This is a normal occourance for me. Any explanations or conspirasy theorys?

PS MODS: If this would go better somewhere else, please move it.

That happens to me too, though I have no clue why. I pretty much just chalk it up to having happened "for no reason", even though I know there must be 1. Now I'm curious; how many others does this happen to??

Hi Amber

I always loved having deja vu experiences.

And then some darn scientist had to figure out why it happens. Nothing mystical, no awsome 4th-dimentional activity. According to this study, deja vu occurs when the mind mistakenly overlaps a memory with a current place and regesters a "this is the same" kind of response when the two events/places were actually different.

Still, I like the twilight zone feeling of deja vu, even if it is a trick of a failing mind!

OMG I get that too! It's usually the most random crap too. Like I would dream I was playing a certain game at a certain time or being in a classroom or something and later on it happens. It's so freaky. Sometimes I even get the weather right too. It's like dreaming a future event to the letter and it happens. Spooky yes? Probably, I don't know. O.o

SWEET! I'm not alone! Go subconsous!

PS Do any of you have increaced forehead sensitivity, to, well beyond the actual forehead? Never got that either, but did win some cash on a bet!

[Milly]

I always thought the sensitivity was just like electricity or something. Like when you walk with socks on wool carpet or something and you get that charge going. I do get it though. Don't know what "it" really is though...

yeah, I could explain some instances with the brain cell overlapping theory

but I have also had dreams that I have written down

and then some time later I find myself in the same circumstances of the dream

specifically I had a dream where I walked out of my apartment

and noticed that all the bushes were gone, there was this really odd lighting, a fat guy in overalls was sitting on my porch to the right

and then a black police officer went upstairs to my left

the lighting is what I remembered the most, it was so bright but I knew it was night

a month or so later we got a new handyman who I thought I had seen before

a few months after that the manager put new siding on all the units and had new fences installed around the porch

to install them they removed the bushes

all this time, I never once thought about that dream, except as the poem I turned it into

so about a year after I had the dream

there was a comotion outside at around 10

it was winter and dark early

they had put in a new light with the siding but wired it badly and the handyman noticed that it was smoking

the handyman had called 911 and reported it

the first person on the scene was a black police officer

and just as I was coming out to see what was going on he was heading upstairs to ask them to leave their apartment until the situation got under control

the light was on the wall right outside their unit

deja vu is a bit of an understatement

the strange lighting was a combination of the police car lights and the new siding that was white, the former siding was brown

the handyman was wearing overalls and was to my right, but not on my porch

all the bushes had been gone for a while

and I was just kind of stunned that everything came together almost the same as the dream

it took me a few days to calm down

the thing about the dream that was the most memorable

was that it was simultaniously so familiar and so foreign

I had the since that I had been here before while at the same time I was sure that I have never been there

anyway

about the twilight zone

been there

done that

looking forward to going back

i get the same thing. i guess i just always pushed it off on being connected to reincarnation and psychic moments being connected, since i believe in both. dunno if that makes sense, but that's how i think of it.
