A 2006 study found that feelings of derealization like déjà vu “may occur because distorted vestibular signals mismatch with the other sensory input to create an incoherent frame of spatial reference which makes the patient feel he or she is detached or separated from the world.” Trippy. Patients with vestibular disease (things like vertigo) also report déjà vu as a special feature of their disorder. In a 1994 study called “Anatomical origin of déjà vu and vivid ‘memories’ in human temporal lobe epilepsy,” researchers observed that seizures arising in the medial temporal lobe sometimes resulted in a dreamy state and feelings of déjà vu. Some brains are more prone to experience déjà vu than others.
Researchers also discovered that déjà vu was linked with dreams and memory-related factors instead of with “dissociation-related factors of depersonalization, derealization, jamais vu, and daydreams or with mental activity-related factors such as paranormal quality and travel frequency.” (We’ll just agree to disagree with them about the déjà vu not being paranormal….) (I call those inexperienced people Deja “Vurgins.”) Déjà vu was found to be an indicator of good memory function and was experienced by people who were younger and more educated than persons who had not experienced it. For the mystical shit, skip to the part titled “Mystical Shit.” Whichever you choose, enjoy the déjà vu-themed tracks as they add to your sense of bewilderment.Ī 2003 study titled “Demographic and Psychological Features of Déjà Vu Experiences in a Nonclinical Japanese Population” found that “sex, hand preference, or area of residence” had no effect on the frequency of déjà vu experiences. (The blue pill or the red pill?) For the scientific explanation, continue on to the paragraph below. In order to understand this strange phenomenon, and how cannabis factors into the equation, you must first choose your own adventure.
If you are familiar with cannabis, then you are definitely familiar with this feeling, since cannabis is known to summon the magic that is déjà vu. Didn’t you already read this article about déjà vu and weed? Are you mistaken, or is it.? Déjà vu-or “already seen”-is that weird, vague feeling that makes us ask ourselves if we’ve experienced the moment we’re living before.
