Déjà-vu ; Explained

[LittleSally]

...or at least attempts at explanations...

1. Parallel Universes

We're seeing a glimpse of what happened in the other universe that we inhabited before...and we've actually experienced it before...and now experiencing it again - hence that feeling may not actually be false.

2. A Glitch In The System

World Is a Simulation and when we see something we feel we've already seen - we're actually experiencing a glitch in this Matrix.

3. Our Brain Checking Up On Itself

Seeing if everything is okay - it is checking its own memory - and its ability to remember or maybe connect different memories together - like an involuntary drill - which makes sense...that it freaks us out - since it's not something we can control.

Deja vu is just our brain going through memories of past experiences, trying to synchronise them, so that it (the brain) will know what to do, or how to act in the given situation. When our brain recalls events that relate somewhat to the current situation, or ways we got through this situation, we experience deja vu.

i've had so many deja vus with this guy. it's like i've known him in my past life 😣 what the actual fuck?

[Kuraj]

Pretty sure the most scientifically accepted explanation is that the brain incorrectly interprets current events as long term memory.
Not sure about the "drill" part, deja vu is considered an event of irregular brain activity and is linked to other abnormalities such as seizures and epilepsy. (people with epilepsy also often experience deja vus)

I thought I was remembering something I was supposed to from a previous incarnation.

[JustinTheGreat]

I remember the first time I had Deja-vu, i freaked out and thought I had special powers

[deraz24]

Yea I had quite a few deja vu moments interesting indeed

1 and 2 make the most sense. Einstein once said that the past, present and future exist simultaneously

[JustCallMeLeon]

I just wish i dont wake up inside a glass tube with cables up my head and butt.

Take the red pill. You will see the world in a completely different way.

Or shrooms

A glitch in the brain: it has also been attributed to mild epilepsy.

Nice take, isn't it weird how when we experience these, our body feels it too

[mellifluous_girl]

Brilliant myTake! This is really intriguing!

[Nadzzz]

I like Deja-Vu and at the same time I hate it.
