Have you ever experienced Déjà vu? If so how often, and how extreme?

I have, several times in fact. One time was so extreme that when I first realized what was happening I knew what the people around me were going to say in the next few seconds that followed. it lasted for about 30 seconds.

Yes, it happens to me at least once or twice a year. a very strange sensation. Usually lasts less than a minute, though.

Only very recently, I had an entire night of it, the situation was already an extremely stressful and emotional one, the sensation left me feeling powerless as though caught in a bad drama where, if I didn't just go along with it, the other cast would "ad lib" me into submission. It was a life changing experience, I realised that there is a difference between destiny (which, I believe in) and pre-destiny (A self fulfilling prophesy). God or no, Force or no, the reality is free will for all.

wow...i thought i was the only one...i freak my friends out at school when i finish their sentences on a totally random subject, and i scare myself a lot too
Also, all of a sudden i remember things that i thought happened once years ago but are just happening now, i have a lot of dreams about a certain subject and something extremely close to the dream happens the next day.
it happens at least once every day on the average for me
I did ask a Ouija board once if i was related to Criss Angel (mindfreak in las vegas Nevada US. ) and i got "Yes" as the answer...and i dont mess with the spiritual forces

Last time I had deja vu I was watching my husband scratch himself because I had completely blanked out and was off in my own little world. Then I realized that I must have seen him scratch himself about ten thousand times before then and then I curled up into a ball and cried.

Deja vu has been shown to be a result of a misfiring in your brain, as your neurons mistakenly file an experience under 'repeated experience' instead of 'new experience'. It happens to everyone. There are papers out there on it if you're interested - try PubMed. There's nothing supernatural about your brain screwing up.

Like I said the last time you posted this question, De'j`a vu is a collision between our perception of linear time and actual or non-linear time. In essence, we are traveling along a straight line of time, like crossing along the diameter of a circle. This is how living being, like ourselves, perceive time.
Actual time is an unending circle looping back on itself.
When we cross an intersection between the straight line "diameter" of time and the circumference or curve of actual time, we experience D'ej`a Vu and other paranormal phenomenon.

Yes and lately about you. A strong feeling you would ask a question something like: You know, that weird feeling that you've been here before, experienced the same feelings, seen the same things, maybe even know what's coming next? Yes and lately about you. A strong feeling you would ask a question something like: You know, that weird feeling that you've been here before, experienced the same feelings, seen the same things, maybe even know what's coming next? My feeling is that in the future you will ask another (maybe even many) question and ask people to star them. That is my prediction.

I have experinced the same effect as the respondent before myself. And it has happened on more than one than once. Thing is the people who were with me when I asked them said they had felt something odd????

NO, but, one time, I experienced Vuja De', which is when you go somewhere and realize, that you have never been there before!
