Hi everyone i wonder if anyone can explain an experience i had last night?  i went to bed at 10pm i was relaxed and lying on my back.  i fell asleep quickly and the became aware of being in a dream where i was in bed in my room. It felt like a dream but at the same time felt that i was awake i felt afraid although the didn't seem to be anything or anyone out to hurt me. i was trying to call out to my mother to come and help me. some people were coming in and out of the room but they did not try and wake  me up and i could not see their faces.  I was trying i was clapping my hands to make a noise but there was no sound and i was banging the cupboard next to my bed but still nothing. After what seemed like ages i did wake up. This experience is almost identical to one i had some months ago except that time i was calling for my girlfriend to come and help me she came into the room but ignored me. was i projecting or dreaming?

It definitely seems a dream- if you read around you'll find that a lot of people have dream-like experiences even when some symptoms of A.P. (like vibrations, etc) are present.
I'll let the more experienced folks answer more completely (or correctly?   :-P ) but it sounds typical of a dream experience. Just the way it begins, it sounds like one.
If it was an OBE, it's hard to tell. You might know better than we do. It could be a lucid dream.. aware that you're dreaming, that you're supposed to be sleeping, etc and still have vivid experiences.

Also you were banging the cupboard? You could touch it? Dream or 'astral' cupboard (since some of the physical is replicated in the astral).. hmm.. hard to tell for me.

Hope others can help you more.  : )

Yup.  Anytime you're consciously aware while in a reality which you recognize to not be this physical reality... it's a projection.  :)

HI thank you for your reply  :-) i was hoping that it was a projection since its something i want to do. I wish i could control it and not be so afraid.

I've had similar experience but I wasn't afraid. It seemed like I projected in my dream, got the vibrations and everything but it was like I was test running AP in the dream.
To Love or not to Love, that is the question.
