I've been getting this EVERY INTENSE feeling for a long time.

It happens like once a year when I'm almost falling asleep and in a very relaxed state.

I suddenly start to feel a vibration on my body that keeps growing. It is pleasurable at first and if I move, it disappears.

But if I manage to stay awake and let it grow it starts becoming a vortex or a spiral and I start getting sucked, almost like my consciousness is about to leave my body.

Generally this is when I stop because it get very frightening and painful. Over the years I've been going further and last night I reached the furthest I've been, but it's very hard to continue and I give up and come back to the body.

It's pure terror and you think you might die or not be bale to return to your body. Maybe this is natural for an out-of-body, maybe it's something else.

The reason I don't think it's an out of body is because I never see it described like this.

I know others can experience it as well as my father told me he has it too.

Has anybody else felt this thing?

If so, how far have you explored?
