Do you remember the first time you experienced déjà vu?

specifically no, but i know i experienced it sometime in grade school.

I remember my first time well, because it was so bizarre to me. It was in art class in third grade, and I felt like I was reliving a dream. It seemed to go on for several minutes. I went home and talked to my mom about it, and she told me what is was. I just wondered if anybody else recalled their first experience.

Hasn't this been done before?

No, and now I can see why!

I have experienced it, though.

lol

Hare Krishna!

The chaplain character in the book Catch-22 had a fixation with three kinds of 'vu': déjà vu, jamie vu, and presque vu . I forget what the distinctions were though, and I'm having trouble finding definitions for them on the net.

Déjà vu: Already seen.
Jamais vu: Never seen.
Presque vu: Almost seen.

Yeah! I was at my aunt's house. I was about 10 or 11. Weird!

Nope. I have experienced it though, all the time.

those are the translations, but the meaning? I suppose extrapolating, it would be...
Déjà vu - the uncanny feeling that you've already seen (experienced) something before.
Jamais vu - the uncanny feeling that you've never experienced something before. (that doesn't seem right to me)
Presque vu - the uncanny feeling that you've almost experienced something before.

Did you read Catch-22? It was a few years ago for me, so my memory is fuzzy, but in the book these 3 concepts were explained fairly well. Great book.

There was a book called The Jamais Vu Papers that I think I read, but I've forgotten the relevance of the title to the book.

I was just going to remind you about The Jamais Vu Papers. The book is about a woman who lives in a state of perpetual deja vu and is trying to regain the normal state of jamais vu that most people live in.

I've read it. Your interpretations are pretty close. I'd add a nuance to jamais vu: it applies to things that should be familiar to you but aren't. I didn't want to bloviate.

I have a strange kind of feeling that I've seen this survey before

Yes it was like deja vu all over again.

i cant remember the 1st time but i had an hour and a half of deja vu when i was high once....

I was just a kid. We went for a drive in the country and I knew where a certain house was before i saw it. (I'd apparently never been there before.) It's happened a few other times as well with other incidents. Do I believe in precognition? I don't know. I keep my mind open 'just in case.' It's never been disproven either.
