[Grey Matter]

Ever since I was a child, if I experienced deja vu or a dream like state, I would struggle to remember if something actually happened or if it was a "dream". These would trigger severe anxiety/panic attacks. It was the worst in junior high, but now as an adult, they are becoming a "trend" in my life all over again. I just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this, and if they have, how do you bring yourself out of it?

I have experiences with de-ja vu and with anxiety attacks, but not at the same time.

My exh moved into a home, a couple months ago, that is a serious de-ja vu home for me. It's been really interesting, everything that has been changing in my life. And that 'dream' I had, involving this home, back in the summer of 2007, really interesting how things are playing out.

But, as far as anxiety attacks go. There's breathing techniques, etc that can be done. Sure you can find some online or work through with your therapist. And there are meds to help, if they are something beyond your control.

I have the same problem. I feel like I can predict what will happen next during these times. It's really a scary situation

I have this happen as well. It has just recently gotten worse again into my 20s.(I used to have it younger as you mentioned) I have dreams that are so realistic I sometimes wake up really believing they happened and I cannot stop thinking about them throughout the day. I also have the deja vu or just dream like memories come up suddenly if I see an object or see something that brings me back to a random instance that causes like a mini-panic attack. It really is annoying!
