I have often experienced a so called Déjà vu feeling. I'm not an expert, but I'm just curious to see how many of you here at WP who actually have had this experience. In fact I have asked many people about it, but actually only come across a few who said they had Déjà vu.
My experiences has occured both when discussing matters with people, and when traveling to new places I know I've never been. Often it's followed by a strange sensation, like a wosh sound in the head and like I'm gone in just a second or less.
Maybe some of you have a good story to tell also? This is a subject I've been fascinated of since I was a kid.

You know, mosez, now that you mention it, I haven't experienced this in quite a while. It used to happen to me very frequently.
I wonder why it stopped?

I've got to disagree with you a little bit, though. In my experience, most people I have talked to have experienced it.

I have to admit that it's been a while for me too, but sometimes I just wonder, cause it is a strange feeling. Strange that you have met so many. Maybe people I've met don't dare to tell? Maybe they think it's weird?

I've had it quite a few times...eventually, I started getting stronger ones, but much less frequently...like they would last a lot longer. I'd get them, and then say "Woah, deja vu" and then I'd realize that in that deja vu, I had said "Woah, deja vu"...sometimes I'd say it and feel it a few times before it was over o_O The last one I had lasted at least a full minute.

Also sometimes have dreams that come true, which is a very similar experience...especially when I completely forget about the dream. Then it happens, and it all comes back to me.

Yeah, I've done that! Its really crazy when it keeps going. Often in situations like that, the people around me won't notice and will keep talking and everything they are saying fits into the deja vu and I'm just sitting there like WHOA 8O

I'm not sure, mosez. I miss it now. It's a fun feeling.

Yes definitely and I think anyone can experience it. I have my own views on it.

It seems like I experienced it a lot more when I was younger.
It has been a while...but it used to happen frequently.

You're the third person to admit that. How wierd! I wonder why???
I want to know.
I'm going to have to look into it.

I used to get it a lot more when I was younger. It still happens sometimes, but nowhere near as frequently.

Off cause, I'm quite new, so this tread maybe already used up. Thought it went a bit slow. And I don't think this topic is an AS thing, but something common for all ppl

Hm.. strange, now I'm also starting to get curious about the fact that so many, also young ppl seems to think it have stopped.
Maybe the topic should be;"When did your Déjà vu experiences stop?
