New and need help

Hi erm... im not sure what i believe yet but this astral stuff sounds like the closest thing to my experiances. This sounds a bit crazy to me so i'll just come out with it - i have had sleep paralysis for many years but i am only recently coming to terms with it. Sometimes it would happen several times a night then not for a few months or every night for 2 weeks. But there is sleep paralysis then something else with a different feeling.

I was laying on my back and i felt it coming on (buzzing/whooshing in ears strange tingling throughout the body etc) then it felt like i was dying - like my soul was starting to float upwards. As weird as it sounds to say it i seemed to guess instantly what it was without ever knowing or experiancing anything like it before. Its happened many times in different ways. I once seemed to get up, sometimes other presences (cant think of another word) sort of draining the tingling out of me by touching a specific area and once even trying to pull me away (i thought i had died and was being taken to hell).

I dont know much about this but any thoughts advice or questions would help a lot (feel free to tell me im crazy)

No is not crazy who had a astral projection, only a bit more open mind and heart to spiritual reality  Think more to heaven not to hell...

Hi there. 

You're definitely NOT crazy.  Sleep Paralysis is experience by a lot of people.

Rest assured that you're not dying and it's perfectly natural to be afraid of this particular situation.  This is the unknown we're talking about.  However, also realize that you experience what a lot of people here would love to.  I've had a few Sleep Paralysis situations in the past, but I've always known what to expect so I was always more curious when it happened than afraid.  I would love to have this sort of thing happen more often, because it's a great springboard to use for projections!

It sounds like you're starting to become more comfortable being in that particular state.  This is the first step: become accustomed to it.  Understand the feelings and sensations.  Also realize that nothing is going to hurt you. 

Start with that.
