Was this an OBE?

[Gemeni76]

Hi to you friends!
From this night i have a super clear memory. In the dream:

I was in bed, laying to the opposite side and wanted to go for a try to start an OBE. It seemed like it would be a vibration start because in middle of it I turned sitting. Half under and and half over the bed. Cool! i thought and i glided to the window. I pass trough it with a slight feeling.. And almost crashed in the snow down under (many floors)with no harm. Ok i thought, I'll try fly up in the air now. And it work't! I was in one way outside my house and in another way in a steam punk environment.. Or perhaps i can describe it like the environment in the movie City of Ember.

Anyway, I met up with a friend and blow'd her in the face to see if she would feel it..  She reacted but did not see me. Se sensed my perfume in a moment later and told her friend in the nearby about it. Cool i thought! I try some more flying and it was really fun. I then come of thinking about Robert Bruces words; "Don't stay out to long in the beginning to keep your memory fresh" and I went back.. I dived in to me in the bed...

And waked up (But still in the dream! I now know)
I then walked the same path...  and feel kind of high because what i have accomplished.. I feel a little superior because i have been around here invincible among those people. I came about not to tell my friend that i have been here flying minutes ago becaus that would perhaps make her uneasy. I was observing a lot of activity among people and a strange lady then made a trick and blow-of three smoke bombs, Red green and blue. Seemed a little fun but normal in the dream.

Then i waked up, really energetic physical bu still a little tired. I have done it like this in some 4 times now with other events, but the same start, memory and end.. It feels fantastic but was it a real OBE? I did not have the sphere seeing, more like normal. Can the steam punk environment be caused by PTSD? (I have it since 5 years)

Thank's!

Congratz!!!

I used to discredit my experiences if I exited while in a dream or into a false awakening, but I have learned that trying to classify things that way and determining what is "real" and what is "fake" is just silly and a waste of time/energy.

I certainly would call that an OBE. You were conscious, you were aware, you did what you felt like doing. By all means you flew around and explored. Wouldn't you call that a success?

I'm glad you had fun and I hope that you have many more exciting experiences!
