Pluma S NDE

Experience Description

My boyfriend at the time got some cocaine, and said I couldn't do any unless I did it like he did, with a needle. At the time, I was smoking it now and then but mostly snorting it. I was afraid of needles and he stuck it in me and over-dosed me. I started getting very high -- within thirty seconds -- got very hot, stripped off my clothes, collapsed on the bed. I stopped breathing and my heart stopped.

I rose up above my body and then sped away. I was in a dark tunnel, flying very fast. I heard screaming and laughing like on a roller coaster and then screaming and crying -- then the feeling of falling and falling. There was painful screaming, like torture. Then -- ZOOM -- I was back above my body, looking down, watching the guy perform CPR on me. Then I snapped back into my body and I was soooo frightened and soooo sick. It was real.
