I understand where you're coming from. I have felt that way some times. Other times it seems that I just don't practice enough OBE induction and meditation to get results.
Do you practice any OBE induction techniques? Or do any meditation? It could be that you are very near to some dramatic success and an interesting OBE or OBEs are in the near future but you need to do something to help this occur.
The suppression that you feel might be an inability to talk about OBEs and related subjects with family and friends. Negative feelings and skeptical attitudes by people close to you Can have a negative effect on your ability to project.
Anyway good luck on future OBEs.
