Didn't someone else make a thread just like this?!
I don't think so. Paranoia is an actual psychological disorder. Deja vu is a single instance of feeling something.

It does make me wonder if people who have paranoia experience Deja Vu more often than others.

Other wiki says no, but it also says that it has been a hypothesis for a while. Current thinking associates it with temporal lobe epilepsy. (Which everyone experiences in a mild form once in a while.)
(Which everyone experiences in a mild form once in a while.) File that under "weird things I did not know about my own brain." Temporal Lobe Epilepsy is the one that can cause feelings of religious significance, right?

(Which everyone experiences in a mild form once in a while.)I'd call that grounds for sounding like some sort of paranoia.

Temporal Lobe Epilepsy is the one that can cause feelings of religious significance, right?Not really my field of expertise - I'd have to look that up. Other wiki only says that the jolting episode you can have when you fall asleep is actually a non-pathological epileptic episode, and that some researchers think that deja vus might be something similar.
Vilayanur S. Ramachandran explored the neural basis of the hyperreligiosity seen in TLE using galvanic skin response (which correlates with emotional arousal) to determine whether the hyperreligiosity seen in TLE was due to an overall heightened emotional state or was specific to religious stimuli (Ramachandran and Blakeslee, 1998). By presenting subjects with neutral, sexually arousing and religious words while measuring GSR, Ramachandran was able to show that patients with TLE showed enhanced emotional responses to the religious words, diminished responses to the sexually charged words, and normal responses to the neutral words. These results suggest that the medial temporal lobe is specifically involved in generating some of the emotional reactions associated with religious words, images and symbols.

I usually get Deja Vu from dremas I remeber having being suspicously similar to events that happen IRL.
If you don't like a single Frank Ocean song, you have no soul.
Random thought I had while on the bus to work but would like to discuss. Strangely enough, this wasn't inspired by a Deja Vu moment.
