Default Deja vu?

Hi
i have had weird dreams and hallucinations since the age of 12 and i never understood what they were about until a new years party at the beginning of this year where i remember one of my dreams of this girl spray painting a slinky and constantly stretching it out and in over and over. as the year went on more deja vu came about until now when i had an amazing one where my head felt like it was pulsing like nothing i have every experienced before.
but this year has been the most eventful of my life and its not over yet.

so i guess i wanted to learn a little about deja vu if this is it and if anyone else has had this.

also the deja vu today was me looking at 6 different clock showing the different times of the time zones and the 6th was a digital one of the time zone of where i am. and for some reason the minutes were different on them and the colours of the clocks went from green red orange green green the order of the coloured stripes on my tie it was interesting and so im going to have a go at the lottery and see what happens so thanks and hope you can help me with my questions.

Hi Blewitt,
A Deja vu seizure is also known as a simple partial seizure or aura seizure where a person can see colors, get a nervous feeling in their stomach, smell odd odours, like something burning, natural gas or other wierd odours. Sometimes a person may hear words being repeated over and over again and it's all a hallucination but the person is aware of what's going on. Sometimes a deja vu seizure can lead into an absence (petit mal) or complex partial seizure for some people. This is what happens to me but my Epileptologist (Dr. specializing in epilepsy) taught me back in the 1970's that the moment I start to see colors, or get a nervous feeling in my stomach to tighten up all the muscles in my body and make my hands into tight fists for a few seconds by doing this it helps stop the seizure and it won't lead into a absence or complex partial seizure. For more detail check out the following websites

Read about simple partial seizures. Here's wishing you well and May God Bless You!

Default the Deja Vu

Hi there Blewitt,

The DeJa Vu seizure is a simple partial seizure. The simple partial messes with anything in your senses. Remember the famous artist that cut off his own ear. He had simple partial seizures, and he was hearing strange things. So he felt if he cut off his ear, than the strange sounds would stop.
Once in a while i'll have a deja vu that will send a few shivers up my spine. The simple partial is the first seizure i had when i was 22, about 7 to 9 months after I was honorably discharged from the marine corps. 16 years ago. All i had was where things i never saw before looked real familiar. Then a few months later, complex seizures started up. I had those seizures because of scar tissue on the right and left temporal lobes. Then in 93 the right lobe was removed, and my amount of seizures dropped 95%.
Sincerely
shawn33
