Do you get déjà vu?

I dream things and then see them in real life. The best example of this was dreaming of a hotel room, With a very specific view out the window. Afew months later I stayied in the hotel room that was in the dream.

Also Dreamt of a town by the sea with a wide prominade curving around with a cliff at the end. Abit of time later a broucher turned up at my work with the image I saw in my dream. It was in Wales, So I guess I could have seen it on TV or something, but I'd not attually visited it.

That's what I've always called a "Broken Dream".
 
I get it occasionaly, probably once or twice a month.

I find that the 'feeling' starts off extremely intense, as if I'm absolutely sure I've experienced this moment before, but then it dies down untill I'm more or less convinced it's my mind playing tricks.

Most likely it's like a glitch in the brain, but some of the other theories I've hear are interesting.
 
I can only recall actually having a deja vu once in my life. I can't remember what it was but I remember being properly shocked by what happened and it was something that couldn't happen twice. Wish I could remember, don't think it was anything major either. Just really weird.
 
Have had it a lot when I was a lot younger, apparently something to do with a still developing brain glitching. Still get it occasionally, can kinda feel like I can predict what's going to happen but I obviously can't.
 
I did get a lot in college and such but now not so much I sort of miss the panic/stunned feeling I get from it though I did get it in work the other day and had to stop and think about it lol couldn't get it out of my head.
 
Haven't had it for ages.

My theory on it is pretty far fetched but I think we live other lives, possibly past lives, possibly parallel lives and occasionally we make choices that are the same, ending up with points in time which match those other lives so you see things that you have seen before.

Either that or I should probably put this crack pipe down :D

I have dreams which then at a later date are reenacted exactly as I remember them. Its never about anything terribly important, and its only about minutes at most, but is typically specific and long enough to convince me its not just a coincidence.

I don't believe its possible to have premonitions, logically it doesn't make sense for a person to see stuff before it happens. I figure its my mind fooling me, as the deja vu eureka moment only really comes at the end of specific parts of the dream.

I don't have many dreams (of which I rememebr), but they tend to be weird, and as I begin to realise this I wake up. I think its early stages of Lucid dreaming, but I've always been like this, and it doesn't seem to have progressed any.

Sometimes when I'm asleep, and not dreaming, I'm aware of whats happening around me. But it feels a bit like my consciousness has been supressed to a lower level, like background noise, but if realise this and can wake myself up if I so choose to. It feels weird and takes a few seconds, but its deffo not like being disturbed in a normal sleep.

Well I was going to make a post but you said almost exactly what I was about to, thanks :P
 
I don't know what it is like to *not* lucid dream.

I realised some years ago that I was always in control of what I was dreaming about and since then I don't think I can recall a single instance of deja vu!

Interesting you say that, now that I think of it, ever since I realised I had full control in my dreams, thats pretty much when I stopped getting deja vu too :O

Eureka?
 
I get it occasionally. Like when recieving replys to texts or the things someone says back to me. I know exactly what they're going to say/reply with.

More often than not I can just be sat at my desk (at work or at home) and the place of everything on my desk seems familiar, like I've been there before. Sometimes it feels like I've dreamed it.

I do often lucid dream too.
 
I have it quite often, but very rarely have dreams I remember.

But when it happens, I always think I dreamed it at some point and know what is going to happen next.
 
I get it real bad sometimes, it even frightens me.

Was playing football last year, and I was sat, got hit in the face by the ball :o.

Then I found myself looking at my phone (also on the floor), and just knew, it was about to ring, and I even knew who it was going to be. . .

That was scary.

sounds more like 'premonition' than deja vu
