Not what you're describing.
One thing I've noticed recently is that if I daydream about the past, it doesn't feel purely like a trip down memory lane. It feels like there is active connection to the events I recall. It is not an unpleasant sensation, but is odd nonetheless.
Cheers

You may not appreciate this because it's not really woo-woo phantasmagorical or anything...but I've had periods in my life which sound similar to what you describe.
In hindsight, it appears to me that this has nothing to do with cool new psychic powers or some type of specialness.
It comes from our subconscious dealing with anxiety and stress (even situational depression)...of which, at the time, our consciousness is not yet clearly aware.
These anxieties seep out into our consciousness from a subconscious operating in stealth- hyperdrive and manifest in this "Deja vu" like state.
Just my own conclusion.

I have zero anxiety, Im in absolute joy and comfort. Ive been in a state of rest/peace with absolutely zero anxiety or troubles.
Would that still apply?
Also, if I came off as I thought i was special because of it, i dont feel that way. More humbled than anything. Im good with it as well. Its just happening so much I thought this crowd would dig on it.

It could be caused by our sun. We have had a large increase in solar flares recent.
I have heard quite a few folk saying that they feel a bit off lately. Many seem to feel effects of disruptions in time, and number one on this list, the seeing of what some would call ghosts, some call shadow people, and some call entities.

Not but a few hours ago I was overcome with a sense of deja vu, but it's the second time occurring during for same event. I had deja vu of having previously had deja vu. I do end up writing the same or similar things more than once over time, but have never had it trigger a sense of the precise moment having occurred more than once before.
That's more just a curiosity than anything important, but check your private messages a bit later and I'll have sent something more detailed along.

Ummm...now that you mention it...I've also noticed that you've posted the same things...repetitively...
I'm not sure if this is just a strange form of aphasia...or out and out Alzheimer's...

Certainly, everyone deals with things differently.
During the time I was experiencing what you describe...I felt I had finally overcome situational depression due to losing my wife several years back from BC...and raising two very young sons by myself.
I thought I was finally starting to feel joy (or at least happiness) again...and these experiences were occurring frequently.
The situational depression, I realized, had been buried...it never leaves you.
One word of caution...be on guard against being led down pseudo-metaphysical rabbit holes.
You're more vulnerable in this state than you realize.
