So I recently gave up a 20 year cannabis habit, on doing so I started to experience frequent dreams and nightmares mostly anxiety related about stuff I had on my mind, real life issues and it made me reflect and I came up with a theory, would be interesting see what others think. It’s about the de ja vu concept.
Deja vu comes when we have dreams about stuff we think about, usually you dream of the stuff that’s on your mind right before you go to sleep and more often than not it’s usually stuff that you have going on in your life at that time. When we face the situation we dream about in real life and subconsciously take the actions we took in our dream it gives us a sense of deja vu, because you don’t really remember your dreams for that long after it feels like a premonition.
