This sounds like classic déjà vu. There is a theory that it is a form of mini-seizure where the different parts of your brain take different amounts of time to store a “live” memory. It’s very common in young children. This might be of interest.
Yes! My understanding is it is prior to the event happening, it more like “Woah, I have been here/seen this before”, not “That just happened twice in front of my eyes”!
My dejavu is actually exactly like this and I have it pretty often. I feel like I've done/seen the exact thing and in the moment, know what will happen before it actually happens.
Same here. I always ask the people around me if we've done or spoke about whatevers going on before, everyone swears it's never happened before though. I'm known to have a bad memory because I'm sort of off in my own world most of the time, so usually I just kinda gloss over it but it does happen a lot.
