Hello, new here + Sharing

[MD3]

Hello to all. New here but have been reading your posts for a while. Finally decided to actively participate
I've been trying to have a conscious OBE for years unsuccessfully. I recently began trying again and I am determined.

Anyway, I want to share what happened the other night but I also want to maybe get some input from anyone willing to give it.
I'm generally trying at night although I find it hard to completely relax at night, lots of outside noises (cars, etc) but I am usually successful up to a point. I'm pretty sure I reach Focus 10 frequently, at times I stop feeling my physical body and I feel it will happen any second...I suddenly have trouble breathing and get nervous and the whole thing just falls apart of course. However, two nights ago after trying for a while I got frustrated and just turned around and fell asleep. Only to be awakened by a strong vibration and popping sounds in my ears (I've felt this before but ALWAYS get scared)...this time part of me was letting go and part of me was terrified. I think I ended up falling asleep laying on my side...but what is interesting is that it came a moment where I felt, actually, felt/saw my body (astral) being pulled upwards and it felt amazing. I was suddenly running outside my apartment, it was VERY lucid, very clear. I thought I might be projecting though not entirely aware (started feeling less clear and vivid after a moment) so I jumped and noticed I could fly. So I flew into a neighbor's apartment and I was staring at someone in bed and the guy wakes up and says "Whose there?"..but he seemed very groggy to me..weird.

Something happened after that because I remember feeling scared and willing myself back to my body. So I woke up.

I haven't been able to replicate the buzzing/vibrating since nor have I been able to project again..if that in fact was what I did. Among other things I have my doubts because even though it felt amazingly clear and vivid at one point...something in me new I was not fully conscious. Also, I have no idea who the guy I saw was.

That's my story so far. Just wanted/needed to share.
I tend to get nervous once the slight vibrations start or I get to Focus 10 and then snap out of it. Another thing that happens is my eyes just open by themselves, even though I feel Im very close...so that's confusing because I must not be relaxed if my eyes are opening.
Anyway, enough, thanks for listening/reading. Any input, advice or greeting would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers.

 Hello and welcome to the Pulse. What you have experienced is kind of like a "welcome" from the Astral World, we call them "sign posts". But, to be successful you have to work through your fears and find ways to cancel out the noise that heeds your success. When I find it loud around my home I use earplugs when I Phase. I also use Binaural Beats with headphones a lot of times during my sessions and they work great. The sounds, the vibrations, the breathing problems will subside with further practice. The eye openings occurred with me when i used to question whether I was seeing with my Astral eyes or my physical eyes. I negated that too by using an "eye pillow".
Good Luck and Safe Travels

Thanks Lionheart. I greatly appreciate your input. I need to work on those fears, I have been trying with binaural beats and I do feel that they help. It is as I've read here before, a matter of perseverance and as you say getting rid of fears.

Will keep reporting process as it comes!

Greetings MD3
From the description of the event you posted it certainly Does appear that you had a fully conscious OBE. As you stated, 

I've been trying to have a conscious OBE for years unsuccessfully.

Yes, it does takes some people years (not just months) to have that first OBE. So congrats on this, you certainly deserve it. 

Regards
Grey
