I've had what I've classified as deja vu type auras for a while.
These recollections pieced together to a point where it seems plausible, even absolute, that these blips of recollection are factual (though splintered and distorted) were taking place during a period I think I was rapid-cycling during a period I went to the ER. I've considered psychotic seizure a possibility.

Have you ever had these types of feelings that deja vu events became too plausible to dismiss as just deja vu?
Or is this a sign of my dissociating with reality?

That can't seem to be an option anymore with the nature of these recollections. Like 2-3 second clips of a movie, then having reached a point where the clips are sensible enough as a whole, to be able to piece them together into story line sequences, although these sequences themselves aren't comprehensible as blocks.

Could this be a safety precaution of the human brain to piece by piece unravel traumatic experiences to the conscious mind to allow them to be safely processed into thought?

It's a pervasive experience - throughout experience - whether through faces, blurbs of statements I overhear, situations, ...

I look at symptoms of psychiatric illnesses and see my experiences matching several symptoms of various mental disorders - but I can't bring this type of thing up with my doctors. It is through dealing with the medical community that entirely brought rise to these experiences. (which sounds like a paranoid delusion in itself...)
