Bad experience. Help, I'm new.

[Echoes]

About a year ago I had a bad experience that I think was an out of body experience. I had never really given much thought to these things before, but for some reason I just can't shake it.

I was asleep and having what I thought was a dream. In the "dream" I was at a party and all of my friends were sitting around talking about me. I knew each and every one of the people and all of them often went to the same parties, so it's not a stretch that they would all be in the same place at the same time. In fact, they did indeed have a party that particular night and I chose not to go. In the dream, it was like I was sitting right there with them, yet they had no idea of my presence. They were saying downright vicious things. I'm not paranoid and before this incident I never suspected them of really saying such things about me.

My roommate came home from a date and he jumped on me and abruptly woke me up. For a whole minute or so I couldn't move, couldn't breathe, and my heart was beating like crazy. I could hear him talking, but I couldn't respond. That was obviously sleep paralysis.

Obviously I couldn't really ask the people involved if they did indeed say those things because they probably would've denied it. So I have no way of confirming it.

What do you guys think?

Hi Echoes

It was more than likely a bad dream.

An OBE to familiar surroundings (sometimes called an RTZ OBE which stands for Real Time Zone OBE) would have felt totally different to a dream.

There are many possibilies really: a dream, an OBE, an OBE into the astral realm in which you created the surroundings and the things which occurred yourself or the negative energy either from yourself or your friends created the experience, etc. etc.

Who knows?

The important thing is to confront your feelings, and friends, in the "real," waking world and make sure you have peace and resolution in all of your dealings.

PeacefulWarrior is right seems like you have not resolved this experience with your friends or yourself. I'd start by resolving it with yourself and if you still feel uneasy about it, then approach your friends and see how they react. you'll probably know when you confront them whether the experience was real or not.

Whether or not it was real you could ask why you have had the experience you have and why you feel like you do about it :question:

I believe most often what people say to or about you has more to do with how they feel about themselves than it has to do with you...

Put some time into resolving this, do it for yourself,

Hello echo,

My opinion about your experience is that you prablably had a astral projection and not an obe in the real time zone. because when you first obe in the real time zone you need to adjust your senses first and such an experienced does not last very long in the beginning and mostly you are flouting in the air, and in the astral plane your subconsciousness makes an intire new world for your consciousness to move in and explore but there might be a slight possebility that the happenings in the astral could be the same as in the real time zone, but that is really speculative thinking on my part, don't even know if that is possible but i do think so because the subconsciousness has a vast aray of psychic and paranormal capabilitys that you simply cannot comprihend.

well that about my explanation, i hope it will make some sense.

bye
