In reply to Hyperfamiliarity for faces?, posted by uncouth on July 9, 2014, at 1:49:03

Actually, I have experienced this intensely when I have travelled overseas for long periods. For example, I lived for some years in the UK during my ex's job transfer. For months, I did double takes as I kept on seeing really familiar faces around the village we lived in. Like, close friends from home, acquaintances, not many people I could put a name to.

Same experience when I would travel abroad from there.

I put it down, eventually, to recognising familiar gene pools. I do take anti seizure medication, as a preventative for migraine. (Zonegran) but didn't during all of that time, only some of it.

So I wonder if some of what you see is a facial pattern that is familiar? (I thought I was going bonkers, because my ex husband was oblivious.) There must be a sensitivity to it.
