RE: Psychology Addict # 33 | Visits from Lost Loved Ones & Out-of-Body Experiences

Reading this late at night was a bad idea....

Goodnight, sleep. Welcome, ghosts. 😨


When I was quite young, maybe 10, I was having OBEs in my dreams relatively often. I don't know if they were OBEs or just dreams. But they were very intense. I was "awake" in my dreams - in which I was exploring the worlds of other planets - and when I wanted to wake up I just dug a hole in the ground (a couple shovels would open a huge well) and jumped in it. I remember one bad dream, where shadowy black riders on horses located me, I was in their world illegally, and they chased me, and I frantically run jumping from rooftop to rooftop etc. .. Anyway, whenever I jumped into the hole, I saw my body from afar, approached it, it was growing bigger, and when I fell into it I suddenly awoke, usually with heart beating and sweat. That lasted for some period, the dreams were similar and formed a kind of episode series almost, and for many years I couldn't share these experiences without shaking and crying. And another weird part, is many years later I read, online, about the experiences of another person, and they also included riders on black horses finding him unwelcome and chasing him away from their planet. I made a note of the source somewhere in my diaries.

Hahahahahahaha I KNOW! Imagine me ... I have been reading about spooky stuff for days now 😅

I have had a few dreams in which I felt I was "awake" in them. Although, I never experienced the sense of having control of myself. Like you said "and when I wanted to wake up I just dug a hole in the ground". This must be SO awesome! :) My bad dreams also were emotionally unsettling for me for quite a while. The other OBE experience I had was similar to yours in the way I saw own body from afar, neuropsychologists have a name for this "subtype" of OBE: autoscopy

Now, to the spooky part of your comment:

WHAT? 😲
