Seemingly no neurological changes from a person living in a life long déjà vu


Title should say case study*

Since I started smoking cannabis 2 years ago I have had a huge increase of Deja Vu moments. Almost always when I am not smoking.

Moments where I know what happens next and has the same outcome I remember. I dont know why, but I blame it on the fact I have the most mundane job in the world and days just blend together.

I have a deja-vu every morning that I wake up. I'm like "Gosh, I feel like I've woken up before.."

It's scary sometimes.

It's like the mind temporary can tune in to the realization that all things are Now, and go slightly outside the linear perspective of three dimensions. Past, future, it all exists right now. Only from our current point of view we perceive it all as something linear, unless we have for example these highly interesting experiences of deja-vu's. I wouldn't want to have a constant one like the guy in the case study though... The longest I've had was several years ago and it lasted for about 5 minutes or something like that.

I made a topic of "deja vu and its connection to the spiritual" some years ago but I don't really remember what I thought about the phenomenon "back then".

i hate Deja Vu's, they always make me feel uncomfortable

What if deja vu means we died and are restarting at the last save point?

You solved it!

lmao

De ja vu is ez

When we make memories they're imprinted to either 2 categories: situational or sensational

if we experience something that gives us the same sensation/situation -- something about the firing of neurons and the imprints on past ones give us the same similar feeling that we know as de javu

nothing special about it.. survival trait ?

If you think about it, what if DejaVu is just something that your mind does to you? "I swear I saw this in my dream." but you don't know for sure, your brain may just be creating a memory. I guess the only way to know for sure is to keep a constant dream log and if something happens that you wrote down, be afraid.
