I had an out of body experience this morning.

sat up, tried to turn on my light, to no avail. got out of bed, checked the time on my phone (7:23), went to turn on the big light, but it wouldn't turn on. I then tried to open the door, but it was stuck. I turned around to go to the windows to open the blinds for light, and as I did so I saw myself in bed. was a bit freaked out, went ack over to me, then i woke up again. thought "must have beem a dream, odd tha it felt so real", checked the time. 7.23.

anyone else ever experience this?

Were you smoking anything different that night :P

When cramming for exams and writing papers, my sleep patterns get messed up, and during periods of exhaustion I've experienced similar dreams as the one you recounted PIP. Sometimes I think I am dreaming that I am dreaming, until I stumble over something and realise I was up but only half awake.

This happens to me all the time. I often "wake up" feeling really frightened, like I've had a nightmare, try to turn on the light but it wont go on, I look down, there I am, I get a fright, jolt awake, try to turn on light can't, jolt awake, again and again. It's bloody terrifying.

Happens nearly everytime my OH is away with work, and I think my fear of it happening makes it worse. Like I expect it to happen when he's away, so it will. I've thought about it tonight before I sleep, so I wouldn't be suprised if it happened tonight.
