Psychogly question (problems, people)

[littleair]

I'm asking this because it helps me understand psychology more.
Have you ever had dreams and have the feeling like you are there before. Or if when you are thinking about how life exists and how the universe might be fake and you get an insane feeling like nothing is real,

The question is what other things like that have you experienced.

I remember in school a classmate said she was in a dream and felt like she was there before but she was not, the teacher called that a certain name... Do you know what its called?.

Thank you.

Yes to both questions.


The name of the experience of being somewhere before is called deja vue.

This article says it is common to about two-thirds of us.


About your first question - when I start thinking about how enormous the universe is and how insignificant people and their problems are in comparison to the size and the amount of time it has existed sometimes I get a sense of unreality.


But really I think it may be a more clear picture of reality. It reminds me, comfortingly sometimes, of how narrow my vision can be.
