Recently I've been experiencing a phenomenan where strangers I meet seem to be very familiar to me. The barista at the a coffee shop, a new mum at playgroup, a random in the street. My brain is telling me I know them but I don't.
I know this happens occasionally but it's daily for me.
I've got 2 kids under 2 and just started a new job and spend most days feeling overwhelmed, stressed and burnt out. Is it possible my brain doesn't have the capacity at the moment to 'learn' a new face and so is it just lazily linking to one I already know?! What's going on?!
Does anyone else have this?
