But, you know, I can imagine being like, if I really did it immersively, having that sense of familiarity. So you're really pitting these things in opposition to each other. And so what likely happens with déjà vu is something – uncanny that triggers a little bit of memory retrieval or a strong fluency, but then there's a mismatch that suppresses it and prevents a context from coming up.

Oh yeah, we got to talk about that.

Yeah, you could blow out the serotonergic system with too much of it.

Again, you know, serotonin is like a neuromodulator. It enhances plasticity. And what I mean by that is that if you have like a transient learning event, you will get a change in the connections between neurons that were active during that event. And super interesting work right now going on in behavioral timescale plasticity and all this stuff.

So it's not just solves the wire together, fire together. It's more interesting, actually. Or fire together, wire together. It's more interesting. But... Those changes can often be transient.

And what people, so like Eric Kandel, for instance, one who studied serotonin in particular and emphasized this, but basically many neuromodulators, if you give a little bath, bathe these neurons in serotonin or other neuromodulators, you stabilize that plasticity. And that allows increases in receptor density between these neurons that allow them to communicate more effectively.
