Involuntary Out of Body Experience?

eversio11 · #1 08-31-2005, 08:17 PM

I'm not sure, it may have been a dream, but I think I may have had an involuntary out of body experience last night. It was around midnight, I was trying to get to sleep. I start to doze off, and the next thing I know I'm looking out of my back screen door.

As soon as I realize this, I feel this incredible force on my body. It's like a thousand hands are pulling on me, then passing me off to another thousand hands. Eventually it feels like the hands throw me towards my room, I'm just flying towards my door. It feels like I'm going 100 mph, but I'm only moving a short distance at a time.

I'm floating, trying to control myself but I'm just being hurled towards my room. I travel through my door and this is where it gets fucking scary. It felt like there were demons all around my room, staring at me. I could just feel them all around me.

Now, throughout all this my vision was very limited. It was incredibly dark, blurry, and I had a very narrow tunnel vision. I think since I was out of my body, my mind was trying to place images based on where it felt like I was. This is why I think it was a true OBE, and not a dream, because the vision was unlike any dream I've ever had. Also, the force on my body as I was floating was incredibly realisitic.

I eventually land back in my bed, I never saw my body laying there while I was outside of it, I was a bit disappointed. As soon as I was back in my bed, I woke up. It was about 12:30, and I still had some lingering feelings of those demons. I didn't feel comfortable or safe at all, I couldn't fall back asleep. I turned on Cartoon Network to get some humor back in my mind, but nothing was funny. I still had this terrible feeling. I was actually really scared that this might be the feeling I'd have for the rest of my life, this terrible feeling of being surrounded by evil.

I eventually did get back to sleep around 1:30, and this morning I felt pretty much back to normal. But last night was unlike any dream I've ever had, and I think I had a true OBE. If they're all like that, I think I'm gonna give up trying to have one voluntarily. Way too scary.

Dude, what did we tell you about dropping acid?

Call the exorcist while you're ahead.

But in seriousness dude that sounds really, REALLY freaky sounding.

That sounds pretty interesting. There are countless documented cases of OBEs. Think about it...what is the difference between a living person, and the person dead from a heart attack a second later? The presence or absence of what we call a "soul", or some form of energy that physics will eventually end up defining. When you sleep, your body is on stand-by, digesting food, breathing, everything, but you brain, or soul, is not there...

I've done LSD, and this was nothing like it. If anything, it was similar to a really strong Salvia trip. But still unlike anything I've ever experienced.

Wow thats really weird. Know that you say that, I was laying in bed one night, and all of the sudden I felt like my body was being pulled on and I couldn't control anything. I kept seeing weird images. Not like shapes and colors, just random stuff, people etc. I felt tingly almost. It freaked me out so much I couldn't really remember the whole thing. But after it, I felt like you did. I stood up in my bedroom and looked around. I felt like I was only half there. I didn't "travel" anywhere though like you did.

i have this quite often, well in relation to some things... but yea, crazy i dunno, i'm usually in a very light sleep when it happens, an i wake up in a cold sweat scared shitless an wary of things around me. its a bit wierd, you'll get used to it eventually, if you have it as often as me. i've woken up in the bath at 3am after one of these outa body experiences.

I usually just comfort myself by saying its a production of my brain.

A few months ago, I had this dream where a group of people had a list of philosophies. They went through the list OVER and OVER. It became a headache. I became aware that these people were backend of my brain. It was like a clog that my thoughts were stuck on. As I became more aware and annoyed the clog just fucking popped. A loud bang inside my brain that woke me up. I thought I was going to die, nearly went into shock. I layed in the shower and sang Bob Marley tunes till I felt ok. The lights in the bathroom were flickering too, really scary.

Some of these stories are pretty interesting. I don't think I can recall an out of body experience, but I did have an experience about 3 years ago. I was laying in bed, and I was htinking about god. NExt thing I know my body started to quake, and I couldn't move, or breathe.

It was only for a couple seconds, but I think it was something spiritual. Funny thing is I don't really believe in a christian god. At the time I think I might have been praying to god himself but I didn't pray in Jesus name.

My dad had an obe after he stabbed himself. He said he felt really warm, and he saw light. He then felt someone reaching into his body, and pumping his heart (which they were) annd he came back to life.
