Deja Vu

[darkglobe]

Hi.

Swim's been having more and more experiences of Deja Vu, lately. It's getting to a point where it's either worrying him/convincing him he's some sort of psychic (he hasn't decided yet!). SWIM recounts his feelings below...

Now, from my (limited) understanding (an understanding also known as Wikipedia), Deja Vu:

"....refers to a psychological phenomenon which describes the experience of feeling that one has witnessed a new situation previously."

This is exactly how it feels. I will be in a situation which is totally unique and new, and I will think "hmmm - I swear I've dreamt about this before... no, I've been here before.... no, I dreamt about it".

For instance, I was driving around a roundabout I've never been around before, and I was thinking about buying a new Metallica album, when all of a sudden I thought "I've been here before!!" and then realised it was just a dream. Sometimes (often) I think "I've dreamed this!" not "I've been here before".

Is this proper Deja Vu? If so, what on earth could possibly be causing this?

SWIM hopes you can help.
