I have been a worrier all my life - too many reasons to go into - but I have experienced deja vu / deja senti from when I was a small child. At various stages in my life - illness, financial worries, job worries, pregnancy etc I have noticed an alarming increase in the number of deja vu's experienced. I too have had what Jared described as deja vu "swarms" - thank you Jared I thought it was only me!!

What I know to be true is that they happen at very stressful and anxious times and they lessen both in number and intensity when life is less stressful. I try to look at them as warning lights telling me to relax and not stress. However the worry that these are ocurring tend to fuel my anxiety and thus increase the number of deja vu!! This is of course a vicious circle.

Just know that none of us are mad, our brains are complex machines which we may never quite understand. A very good friend confessed to having the same thing years ago - we both kept it secret as we both thought we were going mad. But I haven't gone mad in 40+ years and nor has she!! Reading this and writing this gives me hope - they are scary but perhaps they are just part of us like eye and hair colour.

Thinking of and understandng you all x
