Every time I experience deja reve (which is oddly frequently as of late), I have a vivid memory realizing I've seen this exact same thing in a dream before somehow, and a sudden fear that I have to make sure the dream doesn't come true even if it was mundane. So in turn I say a bunch of nonsense sequences of words I would've never thought to say before.
Does anyone else get this feeling? (I've been having a lot of deja reve lately, and learning this term has allowed me to ask this question at all. Looking into it is also making me worry that maybe I just have a temporal lobe issue, but I've been having these since childhood and am confident that at least one of my dreams have been genuinely mundanely prophetic, though because dreams are hazy, I never have a day tl tie them to and I don't often write my dreams down if they're mundane.)

I have Deja Rev, have had since childhood. That feeling comes over my body when I'm in the situation happening at present time that I clearly recall previously dreaming. I had a LOT of the dreams and deja rev situations daily as a teenager. They come and go as I have aged. I do feel like I need to be spiritually/emotionally/mentally open to them and if I'm not, then I don't experience deja rev until I am open again.
I have never tried to derail the dream as I am in the present situation because I know that the outcome has already been set.
The fact that I also was recommended this post makes me want to ‘derail the dream timeline’ even more
Sometimes my dreams have this certain feeling and level of vagueness that makes me know that it will become a Deje Reve in the future. I once had a dream about my grandmother passing, I jotted down how my father told me how it happened so I could come back to it if it does happen. At some point, I even told my father about that dream and how it will go, the next day my grandmother passed exactly as my dream showed it. Ever since then I didn't like getting those Deja Reve worthy dreams, and have tried to derail it again and again but I've yet to prevail. I still get Deja Reve worthy dreams where I don't like the situations but it happens to reality so suddenly that I can't prevent it in time.. if possible I'd like for it to stop because knowing it will happen makes me feel more hopeless
I’ve also hated the dreams where someone close to me dies and then it actually happens. But I feel that your dream may have been preparing you, in some way, for your loved one’s passing. Dreams can definitely feel disturbing or unpleasant, but they can also be viewed from many different perspectives. You can often learn something about yourself through them as well.
