I've only told this to a few people... cuz you always get a weird look when you retell it...
This was awhile back... almost 10 years ago, I believe. I had an appointment in the morning and got home
from work and was wasting time til I had to leave the apartment. I layed down on the sofa and I was fighting
trying not to doze off. As far as I know, I didn't doze off, I'm not sure though. Anyways, I was really relaxed
and slowly a low "buzzing" sound started to drone in my ears. I realized that I felt really heavy and then found
that no matter what, I couldn't move a muscle. I was looking at my hands laying down on my stomach and
trying to move them and just could NOT move an inch. Then... all of a sudden my perspective changed and
my viewpoint suddenly was as if I was in the upper corner of the room, opposite of where I was laying. I was
looking down, across the room and I could SEE myself laying paralyzed on the sofa! There was a hallway
behind my "real" body... and the only thing that didn't appear absolutely lifelike was... the hallway seemed
to have a "glow" to it... like a light was on the other end, lighting up the opposite end. I was absolutely sure
that I was awake and got just a bit more than scared and *pop*... I was back in my body and moving my arms
and hands like I just got released from the paralysis feeling. I jumped up and really never felt like I had been
asleep but just in awe over "what the heck" just happened!
I've had the paralysis feeling just begin to start again, a few times... over the years, but never had the out of
body feeling again. I've also had flying dreams and lucid dreams where you are in a dream and realize it... but
they were totally different than that one experience. (Oh... and I hadn't been drinking or doing any drugs at the
time... )
So... I can say I believe some weird stuff happens, things I would just roll my eyes at, before it happened to me.
I don't really know what else to say about it though... just weird.
