Our only problem is none of the NT people that we talk to except for my mom seem to do this. And I'm not talking about I predicted such in such natural disaster, I'm talking about dude I already had this conversation with you before I met you. But you do not remember these dreams until it starts to happen again.
Maybe it is not that AS causes these types of things. However it may help us into remembering and wanting to remember these sorts of dreams.
As far as actual dreams go people who talk in my dreams always talk in what my voice sounds like to me and no one is ever looking directly at me or moving thier mouth when they talk. I always figured this was AS related due to the fact that I find it difficult to look at people when they are talking. I figured the voice thing because I can not tell peoples voices apart.

Having this deja vu like experience could be because we have actually lived our lives before, many times. An infinite number of times......LOL Sorry its so out there. I know there are more rational explanations for deja vu but I like mine too.

I actually know someone who claims to have very vivid dreams of plane wrecks and so on before they happen, from the point of view of someone on the plane. I doubt she's NT though. She could very well be an aspie.

Me, my boyfriend, and 2 friends of ours all have Asperger's we have all experienced the same sort of thing. We were just wondering...
Does anyone else have very vivid prophetic or precognitive dreams? i.e. Extreme Déjà Vu Some of these may happen even years after the dream, but you know an Aspie never forgets. :)
We are trying to figure out if this a an Aspie wide phenomenon or if we are all just exposed to way to much radiation in our home town, which is incredibly more likely to be the case (seriously).


I've always had vivid dreams - the intense kind with all 5 senses involved and most dreams even have "plots" to them. I don't know if they're precognitive or not, but sometimes they "felt" like they were, and odd things would happen later that would remind me of a dream I'd had. Could be coincidence, though. I've had feelings of deja vu all the time, but no real facts to base it on. Just a passing feeling from time to time, in certain situations. I always figured it was because of the way I think, which is in moving images, like a movie being played constantly in my head.

Same here, sometimes they're so intense that when I wake up, it's like I've been ripped out of one "reality" into another.

. . . I also have had cognitive dreams of seeing future friends. Back when I was growing up I also had a dream that I was in the house that I live in now. I also had a dream that Tower Records was going out of buisness. A lot of pepole know that dream came true! Back when I was growing up I had dreams which later I found out was me being in Zambia. . .

Do you think in part this might be so because you are then open to that positive possibility?

Something very similar happens to me and plane crashes....the night before 9/11, I had a vivid dream about multiple plane cashes happening. The same thing happened when a jetliner flew into a mountain in Greece a few years ago.

Given a “tentative” diagnosis as a child as I needed services at school for what was later correctly discovered to be a major anxiety disorder.

This misdiagnosis caused me significant stress, which lessened upon finding out the truth about myself from my current and past long-term therapists - that I am an anxious and highly sensitive person but do not have an autism spectrum disorder.

My diagnoses - social anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

I’m no longer involved with the ASD world.

Actually if you sit and think awhile, this is actually the most rational explanation. Think about it what is more rational predictions and out of body experiences or memories that you just happen to remember.
And it fits with my religious beliefs. LOL.

What religion is it? I don't know if my theory is more rational than an out of body experience though. To me they are both equally off it! But I like the idea of having many lives. I sometimes think each life we live we can have opportunities to do things different.
