How do you explain deja vu?

Just a second ago while programming i got a sudden impression of deja vu, like if i already dreamt what i did for a fraction of a second.

I think the standard theory is that your brain mixes up its short-term and long-term memory for a second.

afaik in a deja vu situation you recognized something for two times. And at top of that, you cannot specify it at something that happened just now, but rather you specify it as a past memory. So, basically this >>4621045

I spent a year or so with a constant feeling of deja vu. It was frustrating and I was never really sure if I was remembering something similar or if it was that near constant deja vu feeling.

Meh? The human mind is complex. We don't understand it. We don't have an explanation, or we might have a lot of explanations for various similar phenomena.

tl;dr version: you're not going to get a good answer.
