Not sure if it's deja vu, but sometimes I've get some dreams where I think I've dreamt it before. Before I can confidently say that I've actually dreamt it before, but now I'm not sure.
So whenever this happens now and I'm aware of it, I'm in this weird state where I don't know what to feel.
When I get deja vu, it feels to me like I've dreamt of whatever is happening before, I've always pretty easily been able to say "oh it's just deja vu" and move on.
But once, I woke up and told my wife about a strange dream involving very specific details of a situation with me and my brother. Along the lines of my brother throwing a beer can, it bounced off the trash can, bounced off me, then back into the trash can.
A few days later, my brother did exactly that. I was dumbstruck, even my wife was like "what the hell"
Definitely a glitch in the matrix.
Yeah this happens to me often. Like for example, I had a dream that I had a bird. Next day I found an injured sparrow in my back yard.
I remember when I was like 5 and I would have these moments of deja vu. They happened often enough I actively tried to change one.
So as I began experiencing a moment of deja vu, I tried to do something that wasn't part of the previous dream. But as I tried to change it, the memory also changed.
Not sure how to explain it, but my memory of that event as it unfolded changed to represent me trying to change the event
Sounds similar to deja reve which is when you feel like you’ve previously dreamt what is currently happening
Asking what the worst case of dejá vu you have ever experienced?
Is it deja vu if it's shitposting?
Oh I have a good one for this.. But it requires some background. I was going on a date with this girl and she had pot gummies and ate like 5 of them. I have no tolerance way I figured just one will be good for me. It turns out they were 25mg and she didn't think to even mention that because it turns out she has a crazy high tolerance.
We go to a bar and I order food and drinks and I get to the point of taking a sip of mine and realize that we need to go home. I was having trouble keeping my head upright was how bad it was. So we call an Uber, it feels like it takes 5 years to get there and then we head back to be place as I'm just passing out in the car ride.
We there and I basically have to lie there on the couch as I'm about comatose at this point and she puts on a movie, this is where we finally get to ops question. As the movie is playing and I'm lying there listening to it, I feel with absolute certainty that I know what words the actors are going to say next. I have never seen the movie, mind you, but I feel certain. I felt so certain that I was about to start saying them aloud because I thought that really would've blown by date's mind.
But, despite this certainty, there was some part of me that said, this is really irrational-- let's predict it in our head and then see if it lines up. Not only did it not line up, it was consistently not even in the same ballpark. My predictions were not at all like what was being said and yet I still kept telling like I knew with certainty what would be said next. My one big regret from that night is that I never said any out loud because they would've been hilarious nonsense.
So that's my story of the only time I felt like I had deja vu but it wasn't really at all.
This isn't deja vu. This is overdosing on Marijuana and your first time.
To be fair, the definition of deja vu is just the feeling of having already experienced the current situation and that's definitely what I had!
In defense of your situation and why you weren't actually under deja vu you have to understand that marijuana can and will cause hallucinations. If you OD or have an intolerane it would be more likely that you were hallucinating then an actual feeling. Under the influence of drugs is the problem.
