edit: Mods told me that this wasn’t an NDE or whatever, and IMHO I kind of disagree. If it wasn’t for my family intervening, I don’t know what would’ve happened to me. I have a family history of diabetes, eating disorders, and blood pressure problems. This also isn’t the first time I’ve fainted like this. I wasn’t even stoned either cuz I only smoked a tiny bowl over 30 mins before and already have a super high tolerance. However, I am not an expert so I may just be unintentionally exaggerating out of pure shock. Idk, you guys tell me since I’m kind of new to all of this.
edit 2: I’ve researched and sought more opinions. What I went through was a seizure with perhaps a cocktail of other stuff. If recurrent and untreated, it might be fatal, although technically uncommon unless joined by other factors, but what happened to me wasn’t technically a NDE, I suppose.
Last night, I was eating dinner with my family, until I stretched out my left arm with a fucked up vein and muscle (caused by arm wrestling with my little cousin and past faulty IV plasma withdrawal), and then started hearing static, becoming really weak. I quickly lost consciousness for about 30 seconds to maybe a minute, before everyone started screaming and calling 911. I literally lost complete control, and even urinated on myself without realizing or feeling it. For those couple of seconds, I was transported to a whole other world where I saw a golden like angelic being of light in the shape of a brain with a spinal cord, surrounded by complete darkness. All I felt was neutrality, neither fear or excitement.
I went really pale. I had water splashed on me, got slapped on the face many times, and was made to sniff rubbing alcohol. Thankfully, I got grabbed in time before I managed to fall from my chair to the floor. As soon as I’m brought back to this planet, it was really hard to vocalize anything at first. My family was going insane and losing their shit, which is understandable. Paramedics arrived within almost an instant, made a couple of questions about what happened, and I immediately got transferred to an emergency room.
Turns out, it was a weird sort of syncope. A combination of not having eaten for 10 hours and overall properly these last few days, plus medication side effects (I take 75mg Wellbutrin daily) and apparently cannabis use disorder or something.. which is funny because I haven’t been smoking a lot lately, but nonetheless I will take a long indefinite break from it. I suspect I have an eating disorder since I constantly check my calories and avoid many foods in fear of becoming “fat”, and having untreated ADHD doesn’t help cuz I forget to eat on time as well.
Anyways, back to what I saw, it felt so surreal yet comfortable at the same time. As if I was there before. It all just happened within an instant, but it also felt like a timeless space realm. It was an incredibly overstimulating event that I’m still trying to process. I consider myself an agnostic. I feel as if I came back as a new or more improved person, although handed with a very karmic lesson, I guess. I’ll never forget that glowing, golden cerebral spinal cord angel that I saw.
