I've had the sensation of deja vu on and off (particularly when tired) over the past 10 years. This began after experimenting with lsd in my early twenties and has sort of tapered off since. On one of the first occasions trying the drug I had a momentary (and vivid) recall of what felt like the hundreds of times in my lifetime I had the sensation of deja vu. Sort of like some circuit for deja vu related memories was activated. For many of the memories, I had remembered them previously as being about the sensation of deja vu (so in one sense I could at least validate some of them were correct when recalled agian). There were many others I couldn't be sure were actual fragments of my past that were being recalled for the first time. Fleeting.
The persistence of the sensation has broken over the years. Only when jetlagged or exhausted will the deja vu filter reappear.
Another thing I've noticed is that if I'm super tired - that type of tired when you can fall asleep in 10 seconds - is that one half of me will fall asleep faster than the other. If I'm woken in those few seconds I awaken with what feels like two sets of memories for those few seconds that goes with a strong sense of deja vu.
* I've been to doctor and discussed this. Had MRI & EEG (nothing unusual), and removed a lot of stress my life combined with a good diet and exercise. I've had little in the way of such strange experiences in a long while except a little deja vu every now and again.
