Experience Description I was drinking vodka straight out of the bottle. I had drank so much in such a short period of time, I must of died from alcohol poisoning. Everything was fine at first. I came home, went to the bathroom and passed out. I was looking around and I recognized I was my apartment but it was all dark. I started flying, like drifting around my apartment wondering what’s going on and why is so dark? Then I realized I hovering over my body. All of a sudden, I heard whispering voices coming from out of no where saying, 'He can't see him' and 'Don’t let him see himself.' Naturally, I went back into the bathroom to see what they were talking about. I saw my body crouched around the toilet. Then, I felt sucked backed into my body. I woke up and started throwing up like crazy. I crawled back to my room and went to sleep. When I awoke again, I knew that I had an experience that wasn't a dream. It was way to vivid and I will never forget that experience.
