why be scared?

[Risu no Kairu]

You don't get over fear, you face it.

However, it sounds to me like you can't see, and have no or limited control near your body.

If that's the case, jus try to get away from it. Tends to work for most peoplewho get out blind.

HEy thanks for the response....
but get away from what?? my body? The first time that I had a OBE I had a great time and could see with great clarity, although now it seems very inhibited and although I am very mentally clear everything else is not. I must say though, this is very exciting because in my daily life I feel as though I yearn for more then the physical world, although when I am lucky enough to get away from it I seem to jump right back to it. I think that hopefully I will face my fear and focus more on being calm and trying to detach myself. LAck of control and fear is my problem. My mind is very clear and aware.. for example the loud noises I hear I remember thinking to myself hmmmm.. its not raining is it, then I realized what was going on and that I was out. After waking up I fight going back to sleep  cause usually  I will fall right back into it. It seems that there are night that I know my energy is a certain way that once I hit the pillow I will have a OBE or some strange energy occurance... sometimes similiar to seizures when I fight it, my physical body jolts righht off the bed.... its quite intense. Anyway  Ill keep up the positive outlook I have in my waking life and focus it to my OBE's. Thanks

Hello,
 Well  Im out of school now so I have plenty of time for astral fun!!! That is until I go back to chiropractic college in JAN. Anyway in my waking daily life I am a very open, thoughtful and spiritual person. I am not afraid of much and take everything in as a experiment, I truly believe our waking life is nothing but a mere stepping stone. I had my first OBE in October and it was great, until a little ways in where I began to feel frightened and I returned to my body. Now I have had other experiences although I feel so inhibited I cannot enjoy them. I feel as though I cannot open my third eye and have no control of my movements. I am blindly rolling around trying to get back into my body. How do I overcome this fear?? IT baffles me because I am such a inspired spiritual person and I dont understand why when the time comes and I experience this great sensation I dont just enjoy it?? Instead I fight it?? ANy help from anyone who has had this problem?
thanks jill
