Experience Description

My friends and I were sitting a table in his house playing cards. There was a joint of marijuana being passed around the table. Another person came to the house as we were playing cards. She then put another joint into the rotation around the table. I was the first one to get it. I immediately could tell that it wasn’t marijuana. I looked at my buddy as I passed it to him and said, 'That’s not weed.' I heard my buddy say, 'I sure hope it is.' Then in that moment, I got tunnel vision and blacked out.

From my friend's point of view, things were happening very differently than what I was experiencing. What they saw was my face lost color and I hit my head as I fell on the wooden floor. I then went into a severe seizure, spinning uncontrollably on the floor. I was hitting my head on all the chairs and the table.

What was happening to me was very different. I entered a blue and white area or room with a black grid. At the top of the room, I could see a white light. It seemed pretty far away from where I was, but the light was reachable to my mind. It was like I knew how to get to the light. All I needed to do was to spin like a death roll and jet upwards like a rocket.

But, I was curious as to what else was around me. I slowly turned my head and then I woke up in a hospital room. It was the day I was born. I was able to see from everyone else’s point of view. It was as if I was conscious and I was all of these people. Then the scene changed. I flashed into another life event, then another, and then another. Each life event, I was able to see from everyone else’s point of view. I got to see what would happen if I made different decisions with every life event I ever had. I was only out for 3 minutes, but to me it seemed like a eternity. After the memories were done playing, I was heading for the light and came back to my body.

I knew when I got back to my body and was 'me' at that point. My head hurt badly from hitting my head earlier. I put my hands on the floor, grabbed my chair, and pulled myself up. My eyes were open but I couldn’t see. Slowly, I focused my eyes on my buddy who was also traumatized at what he just witnessed. My vison became clearer as I tried to focus on my buddy’s face. When I could see better, then I proclaimed, 'I'm a strong-minded mother$%^' and my buddy said,'Dude, you are.' Then he asked, 'Where did you just go?' It took me a second, but I explained it all to everyone at the table and very carefully drew them a picture of what the grid-space like place looked like. I think about that experience every day of my life.
