Please share your experience with an episode that may have occured where everyone looked like your perpetrator (for lack of a better word). I don't like that word because I don't like thinking of myself as a victim, former or not.

For example, about 5 years ago I was working in a hotel and I could swear I had seen my x walking across the lobby to check in. Next thing you know, everyone looked like him. I remember looking across the dining room (I was a food server) and every single person appeared like him. I remember it so vividly. I had to go home because I was practically hysterical and convinced that he was there to kill me. It took a couple days and some work with my psychologist, but it finally went away.

After it all settled and I figured out what had happened in my brain, I was in awe by the whole event, still am. And, I wonder about others and their experience with this..........
