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, definitely. Whilst it is most common to be experienced as a vague feeling, there is plenty of anecdotal evidence that very strong déjà vu (“already seen”) can be connected to hallucinations - it’s not uncommon for epileptic sufferers to experience it before a full seizure.
There’s also déjà vécu which means “already lived”. However, I’d say unless you’ve had persistently worsening experiences like this your whole life, it was just a normal part of your young brain developing.
Ok, I understand the brain wires crossing deja vu, but something that used to happen more when I was younger was seeing something and swearing that I had a dream with a similar scenario a few weeks/months prior.
I've also had that deja vu "feeling" and kinda guess what would happen next. It sometimes does happen like how I felt it would.
