Topic awaiting preservation: Alone in the dark ][ (reality) (Page 2 of 2)

Ummm... I just read through all of this...

So yea, near death experiences... (this is sort of like Webshaman's experience)

Once, I had an illergic reaction to a drug I was taking, it caused my whole body to tense up to the point where I could no longer talk. I was laying on my couch, was watching TV - in excrusiating pain, not to sure what was going on. Next thing I knew I was asleep, well sort of. But then I noticed I could think. I was thinking, yet I could not move or see, and darkness and peacefulness surrounded me. Then I realized I was not breathing. I was sitting there thinking, hey...Dumb Ass...you are not breathing, you had better do something....You are dead. I sat there, immobilized: knowing that I was dead. And like Webshaman, everything was black, and peaceful, and I felt weightless, and at one with the darkness. Then I thought, well, I don't really want to die. So I thought about breathing, trying to breathe that is. And all of a sudden I jumped up from the couch and crashed onto the ground.

I got up and could barly walk. I went next door - my girlfriend at the time was also my neighbor - and knocked on her door. She was home. She took me to the hospital and they gave me an IV of benadryl which quickly ended the tension in my body and I quickly felt normal again. Once I was back to normal the doctor told me that had I not come to the hospital I would of been dead within half an hour. I didn't bother to tell him that I was already dead when I came in.
