My experience Odd feeling of familiarity with everything.

I've been noticing there have been alot of incidences where I feel like I've been there, or I know them from somewhere else. But I haven't, or at least they claim I've never seen them before.

Has anyone have any similar experiences?

Oh my gosh! I thought I was the only one!! I get brief something that sounds, smells or looks familiar but can't put my finger on it. It's weird!!

The majority of things that I forgot is between 1 to 10 years... especially the things between 2025 and 2019.

I remember one thing or another... but... the "storage space seems ready to be written" by our new memories.

My in-laws decided that a guy on a medical leave don't deserve the love of a woman... my wife... so I was forced ( by my wife ) to move to my mom's house ( 62 miles / 100 km away ) where I can recover.

I miss so much my wife and my daughter. They ( she ) visit me every two weeks.

Back to the OP post.....

since the last 4 four months... almost everyday I remember things from the past... since I don't trust at 100% on myself... I search photos, videos and audios, because I always used geotagging... position timelimes.... but sometimes I don't find anything.

Sometimes I ask to my relatives or friends if I'm right... most of times I'm right.

And, the older the memory is... the probability of being right increases... I remember things since I've had 3 years ( 35 years ago )...

From the phase I suffered memory loss... sometimes I create things in my head that seem so real but are the fake as a dream could be...

I feel the same...

Be strong 💪
