I think that I am experiencing deja vu. I can't remember how long ago I've been experiencing this weird "flashback" thing but I am 13 now and I'm curious.
One day I would go into a daydream and imagine life-like things. A day or so later I would be doing my regular activities (not even thinking about what happened the day before) and all of a sudden I would go into a flashback except it's actually happening instead of me dozing off. A few minutes later I would get an awkward feeling like I've been there before. I usually sit there and try to think of when this occurred. So I finally remember where I've seen this place and I'm kind of freaked out.
I tell my mom about it but she always thinks that I'm joking around, or "pushes" the situation away. I told my psychiatrist about it and he thought it was probably deja vu, which brings us back to the title.
Since then I can hardly remember the last time I had one of those experiences, I don't even think that my mom remembers those moments when I would come to her and say "This already happened to me" or "I've been here before".
I was only 7 or 8 then and I didn't know that I was psychic, (I found out when I was 12 from my mom and her psychic friend). I can only see auras and stuff, so I'm not sure if the deja vu thing had anything to do with me being psychic, or it was just a coincidence.

We tend to have different gifts show up at different times, and sometimes go away for a while, as we go through life. It may be that your déjà vu quieted down due to your shifting your attention more towards the distractions of your day-to-day life as you grew older. Or there may have been something in your conversations with your mom or psychiatrist that had the affect of pushing them down for a while.
Just as a creative person may paint for a while, write poetry for a while, and then not do anything for a while, but is still a creative person, the fact that you had so many déjà vu experiences early on and see auras now are not unrelated. They are both a part of your psychic nature. By the way, "just" seeing auras is no small thing. No "just" about it! Beyond that, you probably have a variety of gifts that are just not manifesting at the moment.
Your early...I'll call them "flash-forwards" rather than flashbacks, because that's really more what they were... Are unusual for their detail and consistency. They suggest that you have an exceptionally clear and sharp sensitivity.
By the way... You say your mom thought you were joking around when you were 7 or 8, but you "found out" you were psychic from your mom and her psychic friend last year. Has your mom's attitude towards psychic stuff (or towards you) changed?
I'm glad you are in this forum. Keep getting support. Enjoy what you are experiencing right now for what it is. Don't doubt yourself.
