i wonder why deja vu's happen. does anyone know. is it because your brain thinks ahead of possible outcomes and when they happen it is like getting a deja vu(my theory). because i get them all the time.

A Deja Vu is a imagened or untrue memory, but for the sake of your question I will treat it as most commonly used "the feeling you already experienced something, mostly seen".

Leading theories are:
1. All images perceives go through different channels in your brain, normally it reaches the visual cortex first, making your aware of what you see, after which the images is "saved" as a memory. Sometimes a disfunction in the brain occurs and the memory saves, before you were aware of it... triggering a "I already remember this" feeling. This also explains why mostly you can't recall were you have seen it before.

2. Deja vu's can also be created by misfiring by the hippocampus, which controls the area of "familiarity" this is especially common for people with brain disfunctions like epilepsy.


Ofcourse in quite "common" situation, like remembering the exact phrase a friend uses. It is possible you've actually dreamed it because you know your friends quite well and may have anticipated that reaction.

Take into consideration that I used the visual cortex in the explanation as it is the most common occurance, but it is possible with the auditory cortex aswell.

so you're saying you've lost half your auditory function? or your auditory is dysfunctional?

I think a De ja Vu thingy is just the world's way of saying, hey, woah, did you see that? No? Here it is again.

Didn't you quit?

I've come to the conclusion that my deja vus are the result of bad memory. Basically, I did something similar, so the situation seems familiar, but I forgot about it, so I can't pin the familiarity on anything particular, so deja vu.
