After Living 10 Years Of A Happy Life Man Wakes Up And Realizes He Was Unconscious And Dreamt It All

One of the most daunting experiences a human can endure is being close to dying. While some escape the claws of death without experiencing any changes in them, others come back just not the same. There are many theories trying to explain what happens to us when we are dying. However, there is no definite answer. Yet, many people candidly share what they felt during their near-death experiences and what effect they had on them.
When somebody created a thread on Reddit asking “Have you ever felt a deep personal connection to a person you met in a dream only to wake up feeling terrible because you realize they never existed?” one user found a perfect place to share his chilling experience. He said that his near-death experience was so strange that it took him three years to recover. Scroll below to read his story and find out why. (Facebook cover image: Guian Bolisay)

“Throw away account cause this is really personal.
My last semester at a certain college I was assaulted by a football player for walking where he was trying to drive (note he was 325lbs I was 120lbs), while unconscious on the ground I lived a dream life.
I met a wonderful young lady, she made my heart skip and my face red, I pursued her for months and dispatched a few jerk boyfriends before I finally won her over, after two years we got married, and almost immediately she bore me a daughter.
I had a great job, and my wife didn’t have to work outside of the house when my daughter was two; she [my wife] bore me a son. My son was the joy of my life, and I would walk into his room every morning before I left for work and doted on him and my daughter. I was living the best life possible.
One day while sitting on the couch I noticed that the perspective of the lamp was odd, like inverted. It was still in 3D but… just… wrong. (It was a square lamp base, red with gold trim on four legs and a white square shade). I was transfixed. I couldn’t look away from it. I stayed up all night staring at it, the next morning I didn’t go to work, something was just not right about that lamp.
I stopped eating, I left the couch only to use the bathroom at first, soon I stopped that too as I wasn’t eating or drinking. I stared at the lamp for three days before my wife got really worried, she had someone come and try to talk to me, by this time my cognizance was breaking up and my wife was freaking out. She took the kids to her mother’s house just before I had my epiphany…. the lamp is not real…. the house is not real, my wife, my kids… none of that is real… the last ten years of living the life are not real!
The lamp started to grow wider and deeper, it was still inverted dimensions, it took up my entire perspective and all I could see was red, I heard voices, screams, all kinds of weird noises and I became aware of pain…. a s**t ton of pain… the first words I said were “I’m missing teeth” and opened my eyes. I was laying on my back on the sidewalk surrounded by people that I didn’t know, and lots were freaking out, I was completely confused.
at some point a cop scooped me up, dragged/walked me across the sidewalk and grass and threw me face down in the back of a cop car, I was still confused.
I was taken to the hospital by the cop (seems he didn’t want to wait for the ambulance to arrive) and give CT scans and s**t.
I went through about three years of horrid depression, I was grieving the loss of my wife and children and dealing with the knowledge that this life experience never existed, I was scared that I was going insane as I would cry myself to sleep hoping I would see her in vivid dreams. I never have, but sometimes I see my son, usually just a glimpse out of my peripheral vision, he is perpetually five years old, and I can never hear what he says.
EDIT (24 hours after post): never thought anyone would read this life story, I changed a line so that it no longer seems that my 2-year-old daughter bore a child.
I have never seen Inception or the Star Trek episode so many have mentioned (but I will eventually)
I will not do an AMA
I’ve had many PM’s describing similar experiences while being in a coma and three posters stating such experiences are impossible, I’d say more research needs to be done on brain functions. Pre-med students don’t assume you know everything.
A few have asked if they can write a book/screenplay/stage play/rage comic etcetera, please consider this tale open source and have fun with it.”

He could have made his story up, but I think it's possible he actually did experience something like this. There's lot we don't know about the human brain/consciousness yet. Plus, it's possible to get attatched to people who aren't real. In my teens I experienced abuse at home for a couple of years and lost my social circle outside of home at the same time. At some point I made up an elaborate second, imaginary life for myself and whenever my mind was at leisure (like riding the bus or waiting for something or when I couldn't sleep), I would withdraw into my own mind and just imagine my life there. I made up a kind of different family and friends and even problems I had to deal with and overcome. I got quite attachted to the world inside my head. Eventually my real life got better and I phased the imaginary one out, but that was a slow process. Your brain will go to some length to preserve your sanity/wellbeing.
Honey, it's been over 20 years since I've spent any time with my abusive mother, and I *still* go into my fantasyland every time I'm bored or not otherwise engaged. It's a lovely place. No shame!
Exactly. The best part of fantasyland is you know and actually like everyone there. If you’re having a bad day, or someone really pisses you off, in fantasyland you can commit murder in the most horrific fashion and get away with it. Over and over and over again. I can’t count how many times I’ve murdered my abusive mother. It usually occurs right after I get off the phone with either her or my sister. 😈 Why do I allow this to happen? 🤦♀️
To expand on it being possible to get attached to people who aren't real... I think that's what stalkers often do, they invent this whole person who isn't really representative of the person they're infatuated with, and sometimes even invent large chunks of a relationship that never really happened.
I think stalkers are just the extreme, but any crush or early in a relationship is like that. We first "fall in love" with a perfect, imaginary version of that person, and then actual love may or may not come as we get to really know them. That's why we can fall in love at first sight, with someone we know nothing of, sometimes not even their name, and why sometimes when a person is crushing hard on someone for a long time it can actually be harder for the relationship to work if it comes to be (they already have a really distorted view of that person)
Hey, I really don't know a lot about this stuff, but it sounds familiar and I think I've been through the same thing you did. I'm not a doctor or a psychiatrist but it sounds like you developed something called "maladaptive daydreaming." I could be totally wrong it's just I've been through the same thing and I've had it, but everyone is different and idk. Just letting you know it sounds familiar, and I'm so sorry if I'm totally wrong
If you have ever been knocked out, you would know this is completely possible. Time changes and everything gets strange. When you come to, it feels as if massive amounts of time have gone by.
I hope my other reply shows up. I went to fantasyland until I had EMDR therapy. In fact my real-life daughter is named after fantasyland daughter. And it's a little eerie because she has the same beautiful blue eyes. Sometimes I wonder a little if my amazing husband and kids are really really real. Then my toddler spends the day whining and I know they are LOL
I did this too. In fact, it didn't go away until I met and married my husband, and even some time after that. My daughter is named after my daughter in my fantasy world. EMDR therapy really stopped the escaping for me. Reality was finally liveable :)
Actually, that is an excellent coping mechanism that intelligent and creative people use. Not all people are able to enter “fantasyland” to deal with their traumatic experiences. I learned that when I finally went to see a therapist in my late 40s at the insistence of my supervisor. There was an incident at work that I used my sarcasm and humor to deflate. She found it inappropriate and called HR. They had me go to a therapist “just to be on the safe side.” The therapist told them my supervisor was an idiot (not in those terms, but close). I kept going to see the therapist until she retired. 😂
Maladaptive Daydreaming.
I also have a made up life.

Grieving something that never existed is still grief. What a difficult thing to experience.
Very true... When my husband and I spent 10 years trying to conceive, I would sometimes have what I call "baby dreams". It was always the end of my pregnancy or right after birth, either way baby would be born shortly before I woke up. I could spend either hours or days with this perfect little girl, fall in love with her, then wake up to reality. It broke my heart over and over again.
I rocked my baby son as he disappeared from my arms in my dreams for years. I never conceived, and now when I have the dream it is just me in a washed out, cobwebby nursery in a creaking old rocking chair all alone. I tell the never-existed little boy that I mourn that mommy misses him every day. I often wonder if it is a remembrance of a past life.
That is so true. And when people ask you what's wrong and you reply "I'm grieving my imaginary wife" people are so confused.
I can't believe someone else had this happen. I have had a very similar experience. I didn't do therapy though. It's been years and I have thought about it literally every single day since it happened. I know how he feels. It is very devastating. Back when I still believed in heaven, I always prayed that that's where I would go when I die.
I mean for real. It changed my entire life and I can't forget it. I used to be very energetic and always played basketball and football with my friends and after it happened I went into a deep depression and I still suffer from the depression. I don't even talk with people anymore. It fucked me up. I still can't believe I've found someone else like me.
You need to do yourself a favour and talk to a mental health professional about this since it is creating problems in your daily life. Please do.
I echo Monika. Please consider finding a therapist, then stick with it. There are people willing and capable of helping you process these feelings and work with depression. There is hope, even when you may not always believe that.
Find somebody you can talk to. Find a professional you trust, somebody you think understands you and let him/her help you. You deserve to be happy!!!
Damn just talking about it is depressing. I would give anything to go back.
Just had an intuitive hit that the accident somehow connected you to past life memories. Reincarnation is real. Your brain is not making up something that resonates to that degree. WAY suggest finding a Reiki Master and getting some energy work done to clear the current trauma and help you energetically align to the experience. Also, watch the new Netflix documentary Heal. Western medicine is amazing but is thousands of years behind ancient Chinese and Japanese practices.
I wanna know about it. Email me: serrarojas10@gmail.com
What was your experience if you don't mind me asking? No pressure tho if you don't want to say :)
I would like to tell you, but it is a lot. I can't tell the whole thing. At least not here. BP comments and replies can only be so long. Not enough room here.
I second that, I go would like to read about this as well. I've had similar experiences, and I'd like to hear about others. Thank you
You dreamed of people who don’t exist while you were unconscious ? Details?
Your brain created a dream for your conscious to escape to under great pressure to prevent you from suffering a heart attack and die. It is kinda common.
Not entirely "don't exist". Our brain is incapable of creating a human face from scratch. Whoever you meet in dream, you meet that person somewhere in real life before, and your brain recorded his face in your subconscious and use it as "actors" in your dream. Personality is random setting.

I had a similar experience back when I was 22, though mine took place while I slept one night. It ended when I passed at the age of 83 with my family around me. I woke up and rolled over to tell my wife about the messed up dream and remembered that she had passed five years earlier. Then when I realized where I was it dawned on me that she was part of the dream too. I'm now married with kids and whole it been almost twenty years I'll still occasionally have a little pang of fear before falling asleep. It would be interesting to get an update from the original poster.
I once dreamt of a younger sister and even younger brother. I did end up with the sister eventually, same first name too.
You know....... at one point I was coming of heroin (had been an addict for a fee years) and hadn't slept in about 7 or 8 days. Eventually had a mental breakdown and at some point slipped into a dream like state but was walking around doing some crazy shit. Eventually woke up in the hospital after my family had to call the cops on me because attacked them believing they had kidnapped me for my organs. This whole set of hallucinations roughly accounted for 4 months of experience in my head and is extremely detailed. Yet it all happened in about 2 days. It was absolutely the scariest experience of my life. I wouldn't leave the hospital for days because I couldn't distinguish between reality and the hallucinations from the days before. I was keeping a tally on the expiration date of the little milk containers they serve at lunch in a attempt to prove to myself I was back in the real world. Can't go into full details about what was happening in my head but it was so real to me that even now thinking about what was happening in my head can send me into a panic attack. I know it wasn't real , but to my brain and body it was real. It's like a lived experience that just never happened.
Once when I was asleep, I dreamt that I had grown up, was a successful CEO of a company and made a ton of money. It was so liifelike that when I woke up, I was disorriented for a few minutes then I wrote everything down. Since then, I have kept a dream journal in hopes of dreaming as realistic as that dream was.
Sounds like you might have had a lucid dream
I have lucid dreams all the time. But I usually know that I'm dreaming.
You might consider writing these dreams into stories. Very therapeutic.
Anybody interested in more stories like this one may be interested in the book "The Man Who Mistook his Wife for a Hat: and Other Clinical Tales" and pretty much anything else by Oliver Sacks.
I always give a mental snort and shake of my head, when i hear people say something is impossible... like they know everything that has ever been or could ever could be, in this universe or another... they would have to be omniscient, which is generally associated with being God (with a big G).
There are impossible things though. Like a married bachelor or a round square. Or a benevolent omnipresent omniscient being.
Maybe he caught a glimpse of his past life? If any of you believe in reincarnation that is. There are many stories out there about people seeing their past life they lived before their current one.
That's what I think also.
I was also thinking he could have experienced or had seen moments of a past life. Amazing story either way though.
When my Grandfather died many years ago, I was devastated. For about 3 years, I had frequent dreams where I would go over to my Grandparent's house to visit my Grandmother. I would start talking about Grampa dying, and she would say "What? Your Grandfather is not dead, he's just napping in the bedroom." Then, Grampa would come walking into the living room and he was perfectly fine. When I woke up from these dreams, I truly believed that he was still living. I would decide to go visit him that day. Then it would hit me, that it was just a dream. I still can feel the horrible grief of that realisation.
a late reply, but I too had the same experience about my grandmother that passed away in 2013. there is no week/month without me dreaming about her. In my dream I was always proved wrong either by my family or herself whenever I remember that she passed away. they will say something like "she's not dead, she just went to the store," etc. and I would feel so relieved when she came home. I believe we dreamt about that because we hope it is what's true.
I had a dog that I had raised as a puppy and she was my whole world, I lost a piece of my soul when she died. I still see her in every dream I have and then I think wait she died and then she will come running and want to be picked up or she’s sick in my dream but gets better. So odd but other dogs I was attached to that have passed away are also there and we are at the house that we grew up in before moving. She died about 6 years ago and like before I go to bed I’m not thinking about her at all but there she is in my dream waiting for me to come play with her. I also had my sister come to me after she died. We weren’t very close and didn’t live together and she had a lot of bad feeling towards me and I was just a child and didn’t know any better so a week after she died and she told me that it was ok and she was ok. We never found out what killed her she was 24 and I was 17. Her mom cashed in in her insurance. Her roommate Found her in the bathroom dead. She was in perfect health.
This is creeping me out for some reason. I think it’s because it was like a literal scene from a movie when he was waking up (lamp, weird noises, etc.) but it was like...real life for him. What. What if I at one point experienced this? That would freak me the hell out!!
That is amazing.
30 years after breaking it off with a woman I was passionately but destructively in love with for reason unclear to me, I began to dream of her. At first my dreams were mostly sexual and I'd wake up feeling guilty that I was cheating.Then over the weeks, then months that followed the strangest thing happened. I dreamt of her most nights and we were growing closer. It was no longer a tawdry affair. 6 months in she left her husband and kids and I left my wife in this progressive series of dreams. I should note my real, woke marriage is and has been spectacular. I felt like I was having a full, rich, real Dreamtim
Oops. Dreamtime relationship in parallel to my real life. This went on for two years. Each dream building on the last. My dreamtime lover and I had history and had shared so much ... in my dreams. I even talked to a counselor about this and she was baffled. I rolled with it until on day I picked up the phone and called her IRL. Remember we had not seen each for over 30 years and hadn't talked for three years. The conversation was pleasant and we actually got into some deep stuff about our crazy, passionate (real) 7 years together. I confided I'd dreamed of her often lately and she reminded me that I had always had potent dreams when we were together. It was very strange talking with her because now she's 60 and in my dreams we're both about 30. Hmmm. That night I did not dream about us. Nor the next. Nor ever again. It was an amazing experience and I feel lucky to have had it. And yes I told my wife about all this.
I understand this type of experience, and the void that it can leave behind. Years ago, before my third child, we had visited family in VA for the holidays and were on the way back home. When we reached the hotel, I fell asleep fast, and stayed asleep until morning, though in my mind, about 7 months had gone by. I remember these months as though they were actually events. I bought a pregnancy test on the ride home, took it the next morning, it was positive, and even though the timing wasn't ideal, we were ecstatic. We called everyone, went to base clinic, got a civilian OB, had the baby shower... I remember feeling kicks. I remember not being able to sleep one night because the next ultrasound was in the morning. I ran through all of my versions of "counting sheep", and finally drifting off, when Greg was waking me up. I felt wrong. When I touched my belly, and saw the hotel room, it felt like I had been punched in the chest. I had dreamed it all, but felt true mourning for that loss.
Ever want to know if you are dreaming? Try to read. You cannot read in your dream or write. the part of your brain that allows you to do that is not active in a dream.
Yes. Some people can. I worked with a physician that would read books in his dreams but they were his thoughts and then he turned them into his own books. I can also read in my dreams.
I distinctly remember a dream I had where for what felt like hours, but was probably a minute, I was reading a (really good) novel. Just before I woke I had a lucid aspect where I realised I was dreaming and it was me composing the novel as I read it. Feeling somewhat smug about my latent writing talent, I woke from the dream and while surfacing, I could still read the last few lines on the page before it faded - complete gobblegook.
I've always heard to look in a mirror. Is it your own reflection? In my case, it never is, and I know I'm dreaming. I can also willfully make things happen, or go back and change events.
I fly helicopters in my dreams - and can read the instruments
I can't read the time on a clock when dreaming.
No, in my dreams I very often read and/or write.
And look at a clock. The hands never move realistically
No, when I see a clock with hands in my dreams, the hands move normally.
The Inner Light - Star Trek TNG episode........look it up
Frankly, I just don’t find this believable. If he had been as badly injured as he claimed, no cop worth his salt would have dragged him across the sidewalk and grass and taken him to the hospital himself. If you come across someone who is injured, they could have unknown neck or back injuries and moving them further could have real medical consequences - including leaving that person paralyzed. Don’t do it!
Yes, and if someone on a motorcycle is in a wreck, don't remove the helmet. A lot of people don't know that.
My opinion exactly
This comment has been deleted.
I saw this on Star Trek Next Gen. It happened to Captain Picard. Sad episode.
I’ve had dreams where I fell in love with certain people and it felt amazing and I still am upset it’s not real lol
I never realised other people did that. I've had that experience a few times, finding someone who you could talk to without restraint. Then waking up and that kick in the chest as you realise it was a dream.
Wow just wow! First off I'm sorry the jock asshole lives up to the stereotype. I was a big guy in high school but not the biggest and got knocked down all the time in the field in the pecking order I knew my place. I've had similar experience when I tried to drink myself too death with a 5th of grain alcohol I almost succeeded. I however had the Heaven and Hell experience and met God. It was the most real truly real Thing I've ever experienced. More real than the phone I'm holding and typing this on and I don't know how to explain it. Just to say death is a doorway to our next path in existence. I say to the nihilism believers stop being so scared and live a good life now because what you do makes a big difference in the next part of your journey. Love as much as you can love everyone be generous and charitable don't let hate dominate your soul. Be a Uniter if people not a divider. Forgiveness is the most important thing because it's about keeping your soul healthy and un burdened.
Following these guidelines, your present life will be much more enjoyable and peaceful.
Welcome to the multiverse, fellow traveler. I'm glad you survived.
Dont know if this is a fun tale of an ideal life, but is excelent fo the script of a movie, a great movie, matter of fact, have i seen some like that? Could be is great.
I once have a dream that it is so real it feels like it is our real life, I pitched myself in the dream and I feel pain. I meet someone there and fell in love, been with her for few months and one day she just told me this is all not real and I woke up from the dream shortly after. I still dream of her occasionally but everything is no longer clear as before and her face is unrecognizable. Years later I meeting a gaming guildies in gathering and saw this girl who I have a love at first sight with, instantly knew she is that same girl in my dream. We are now together and after I told her the story we both found out that we have a mutual love at first sight and both of us have a deja vu that we meet somewhere else before.
believe it or not, the first time I meeting her parents and the first questions I got from her parents was: "Have we meet before? I have a feeling I meet you before." Believe it or it is entirely up to you.
I have had friendships that last years in my dreams and had that friend die. Or serious relationships. It took me days to grieve these not real people :(
Reminds me of the movie "Stay" with Ryan Gosling and Naomi Watts. Really underrated and mesmerising. Nearly the same plot. Hopefully he'll find someone to get/stay happy.
I have dreams that I am different people and fall in love. I mean real feelings for people I have never more nor thought I was attracted to.
I have dreams like this a lot. I miss my families when I wake up so much, but it's good to experience it on a lower level. Having experienced the pain of waking up after these dreams, I feel deeply sorry for this man. I feel his pain.
It's not so far fetched. Lots of people have vivid dreams of a very emotional relationship only to wake up the next morning and feel a great sadness that it wasn't real, so it's not so far a reach that trauma could extend a dream state like that seemingly for ten years in just moments. They say your life flashes before your eyes, but what if it's a potential life your mind doesn't realize hasn't actually happened.
As a child I had a dream of an actual life of decades time to then wake up and be totally crushed that it was real, well the other day it happened again and it's depressing, I deal like I lost so many loved ones. Is this a parallel world or pure concoction of the brain.
Imagine if he had discovered earlier and lived 10 years lucid dreaming as a god. And the inception top is actually a very good idea as well as checking text because any text in a dream is all messed up. I don't know what I would do if that happened to me maybe I would try to find the face of the girl because I should have seen that face before. So sad.
This exact same story was circulating back at the beginning of the 2000s when people used to send this kind of crap via hotmail along with power point presentation with stupid photos
I have almost died many times, and I have jumped into many other lives in my dreams. I really do worry that one of my near death experiences actually killed me, and I am just in one of those other lives or an illusion. I would shatter if I woke up and this life and these kids were gone.
Wow.
The guy who says the brain isn't strong enough to create its own faces is most definitely wrong. As for the story itself - it's Reddit. 'Nuff said.
Holy sh-
This reminds me of a story one of my friends is currently writing. It's about a 15 year old girl who falls into a coma after she fell off a cliff, and the story is about her dream while she's in a coma.
This is my testimony about the good work of a man who helped me. My life is back!!! After 8 years of marriage, my husband left me and left me with our three kids. I felt like my life was about to end, and was falling apart. Thanks to a spell caster called papa ork who i met online. On one faithful day, as I was browsing through the internet, I was searching for a good spell caster that can solve my problems. I came across series of testimonies about this particular spell caster. Some people testified that he brought their Ex lover back, some testified that he restores womb, some testified that he can cast a spell to stop divorce and so on.? There was one particular testimony I saw, it was about a woman called grace,she testified about how papa ork brought back her Ex lover in less than 72 hours and at the end of her testimony she drop papa ork e-mail address. After reading all these,I decided to give papa a try. I contacted him via email and explained my problem to him. In just 3 days,
I have actually experienced something like this in my past. When I was younger, around 5-9 years old, I saw this family in my dreams almost every night for a month. There was always the two girls, a son, and no parent figure. I still remember slight details about it. We had always watched this movie about people with superpowers. We had water gun/balloon fights. I mentioned it to my mom and she said that she had experienced the same thing when she was younger.
I hope something happened to that shit of a person that assaulted him.
As far as I know, these paralysis do excist and the souls have met together. Everything did happen on a soullevel through meeting a soulmate or soulcompanion. In my opinion, if people get back to reality they should enjoy what they have experienced all the time and think about what to bring with in real life.
Drugs are definitely good fun.
Your story is amazing! I really felt bad that you woke up to find it was all a dream. I have woken up from some very vivid dreams and always wondered if they were from a past life...
I get it. I've had similar experiences, not to this magnitude, but times that were so real...like I was living in another world at the same time. Reality blurs. Which is which. I hope he finds his lost life one day. Perhaps he will wake up there with no time passed
It's been a while since I've thought about this. Something similar happened to me when sleeping normally. And more than once. But nothing that would last for years as in this case. I cried and got depressed very hard and could not breathe because of the anguish. And I could not talk to anyone because I thought nobody could understand it. I remember well the person I lost but his name does not appear. All I wanted was to remember his name.
My Mum was very ill in hospital for 2 months recently, at one point near death due to bacterial infection/allergic reaction to warfarin. During this time she was in and out of consciousness and at one stage seems to have 'lived' in Thailand (she's never been there) in a small village as a child through to adulthood and almost married an older guy. She came out of this and could describe faces, smells, how bright the sun was. Also another time was a soldier in a (Maori) land war, 150 years ago and was dying in battle, and yet another time on a cruise ship where things went wrong but no one could get off (she said this 'reality ' was almost comical). When explained to a psychiatrist later, he said that the brain is a wild and wonderful place and will
Often make up other realities when the body is in trauma and this helps keep someone from going into severe shock and dying and possibly also keeps the brain moving when the body is in shock so you don't die (giving you something to live for?). We don't know fully how the brain works so can never really know but yes Italian all truly fascinating!
Why would a policeman have thrown him into the back seat of a police car face first if he was potentially extremely injured?
Wasn't there a Twilight Zone episode where this happened. Or Outer Limits, or some show like that?
I have very intense dreams every night. I wake up some mornings like this guy, though not as deeply affected as he was. Sometimes it is hard for me to throw off the depression even though I am quite happy in my "current" life
I had at times dreams where I led a very happy life somwhere else. Some of the people in these dreams came back over years and years, and sometimes I experienced the span of many days or weeks in a brief dream time, so it is all possible. In the end, everyone must decide what to believe. Maybe there are many realities, and he had a glimpse of another of his lives. At least I would chose to believe that. I hope he finds the strength to form a life here and is not consumed by the memory.
Do anyone ever experienced a dream about you were still kids and then turn to a teenager or adult in no time? Or onother dream feels like very long dream even though it just a night or even minutes? If you have experienced that then you will know that their experience can be true since mind moves fast (maybe even faster than the light) so the mind can created those images and story in a flash which makes ones perceive that those things have happened for a long periode. And for the 'feelings', since the mind already inclined that those things have happened for a long periode, it's feels more real and not that easy for ones to letting go. Believe it or not 😋
He just experienced a different reality/dimension/timeline/. It's not SF. Very interesting, though.
Wasn't this a black mirror episode?
AmaZing..i believe his story.i havnt experienced a near death experience.i believe we are spiritual beings in human bodies.i believe we all come back to earth to learn lessons.to evolve our souls.basicly,he remembered a previous life.thats what i think he experienced.
You are every character in your fantasies and dreams.
does limbo exist. 10 years is long time. i was in lucid dream before. i was in a goverment office, and while looking at the paper i noticed that the word on the paper constanly change and than i realized that i was on a dream, and i start flyin fighting t rex
I had a curly haired girl in a dream. She was a toddler. She laughed and smiled a lot. Then I woke up and she was gone. I felt such loss. I have only had boys. I love them all, but I still remember that dream and believe we can love and cherish people that never existed.
Reincarnation remembrance. I, too have had this in a dream state. I was never depressed. It changed my life forever, in an absolutely Soulful way. I am a better person for it.
Not a remembrance similar to yours at all. Something entirely different.
I have the same: There are nights I am meeting a guy named marcus. And he is very kind and gentle, his eyes were deep blue. Tbh, i can't describe his looks, but I am falling in love with him each time I meet him in my dream. He often laugh with me and talk with me, seems like we know each other for a long time-- Our clothes looks old tho [like we're not from the 20th century]. My dreams of him started when I was five and I'm 22 now; for already 2 years I haven't seen him in my dreams. Note: Each night I have atleast 1-2 dreams & i can barely remember its story. My dreams also affects my emotion.
Sounds like memories of a past life perhaps.
i think it's possible that it happened but i'm just wondering how did it get so clear in the dream that is 10 years? or like your child is 5 years old. I remember in dreams, it's always vague.
Try to summarize...I had a similar experience, yet diff. I was in hospital for 3 wks and I was really sick. Then I had a reaction(1st time) to a Rx. Hello days of what I call "Creating the Universe". But I was lucid, interacting, but not reacting to anyone/thing. Still remember EVERY detail. And it was positive, but I followed God's example "since He did such a great job"!?! And He helped me re-create MY universe slowly, but surely. 10 yrs later, it was an underlying illness. And ,so far, my 'predictions' came true 👍👎. Call it what you will, but I believe He helped me make a safe place to heal.💗🙏💗 And stay healthy!
I don't know if this is real, however, I have had acid trips where a twelve hour period feels like 3 weeks, and they say dmt is released when we die, so perhaps the dmt created this experience for him
I once had a dream like this but without other people. I was in the most beautiful place I've ever seen. There were mountains, and flowers that seemed to go on for miles. There were also extra colors. I don't know how else to explain but the flowers and some other things were colors that I didn't know existed. There was also a feeling of complete and total peace that I have never felt before or since. I woke up extremely angry because I wanted to go back but couldn't get there. I have tried over and over to get back there so I could feel the contentment but have never been able to.
Silent Lucidity .....
This is pretty much a twilight zone episode. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_World_of_Difference
Is it possible his subconscious brought up a previous life?
That guy really bumped you hard enough to send you to another dimension! Whoa! (cue Bill and Ted's electric guitar)
it could have been his glimpse to his past life
This is like "The Occurance at Owl Creek Bridge"... has anyone read that? Guy lives a lifetime in a split second
If you like stories like this, you could just join Reddit and you would have heard about it like hundreds of times in the last seven years since the OP wrote it.

Sorry, but I don't believe this in the slightest. Also who uses the phrase "bore me a son"???
Easy Peasy - find the same football player dude, pish him off until he knocks the snot out of you then - happy life, happy wife! Problem solved!
All buzzfeed posts are internet BS.. poorly written at that.. who uses expressions like "she bore me a son"? cheesy trite internet crapola..
she bore him a son and she bored him?
No, his wife “bore” him a son after a daughter, but that son was the “joy of his life.” What an ass.
Well, becuase of the multiverse theory and the idea that every universe plays put simultaneously it is entirely possible he tapped into a parallel universe for a bit. There's no way to prove / disprove it, assuming its impossible is highly ignorant. Its plausible that is his life in a different world.
I'm glad he didn't live this, the mention of his son being the light of his life, creeped me out, not sure daughter would appreciate that much. Mourning a dream that is perfect isn't the same as mourning a real person or family, it can't possibly have the complexity of emotion that comes with real Parenthood. Nice made up story though.
I totally agree with you, that creeped me out as well.
This was NOT a Near Death Experience, which I had when I was 5 and died on the operating table. This story sounds like an LSD experience. LOL.
Who are you to say? Are NDE's all the same? Does your experience of an NDE negate the possibility of someone else's being different?

Wow how embarrassing why was he being lazy for ten years?
I’ve been lazy for twelve.

Would you please be so kind and go forth and multiply yourself.
He could have made his story up, but I think it's possible he actually did experience something like this. There's lot we don't know about the human brain/consciousness yet. Plus, it's possible to get attatched to people who aren't real. In my teens I experienced abuse at home for a couple of years and lost my social circle outside of home at the same time. At some point I made up an elaborate second, imaginary life for myself and whenever my mind was at leisure (like riding the bus or waiting for something or when I couldn't sleep), I would withdraw into my own mind and just imagine my life there. I made up a kind of different family and friends and even problems I had to deal with and overcome. I got quite attachted to the world inside my head. Eventually my real life got better and I phased the imaginary one out, but that was a slow process. Your brain will go to some length to preserve your sanity/wellbeing.
Honey, it's been over 20 years since I've spent any time with my abusive mother, and I *still* go into my fantasyland every time I'm bored or not otherwise engaged. It's a lovely place. No shame!
Exactly. The best part of fantasyland is you know and actually like everyone there. If you’re having a bad day, or someone really pisses you off, in fantasyland you can commit murder in the most horrific fashion and get away with it. Over and over and over again. I can’t count how many times I’ve murdered my abusive mother. It usually occurs right after I get off the phone with either her or my sister. 😈 Why do I allow this to happen? 🤦♀️
To expand on it being possible to get attached to people who aren't real... I think that's what stalkers often do, they invent this whole person who isn't really representative of the person they're infatuated with, and sometimes even invent large chunks of a relationship that never really happened.
I think stalkers are just the extreme, but any crush or early in a relationship is like that. We first "fall in love" with a perfect, imaginary version of that person, and then actual love may or may not come as we get to really know them. That's why we can fall in love at first sight, with someone we know nothing of, sometimes not even their name, and why sometimes when a person is crushing hard on someone for a long time it can actually be harder for the relationship to work if it comes to be (they already have a really distorted view of that person)
Hey, I really don't know a lot about this stuff, but it sounds familiar and I think I've been through the same thing you did. I'm not a doctor or a psychiatrist but it sounds like you developed something called "maladaptive daydreaming." I could be totally wrong it's just I've been through the same thing and I've had it, but everyone is different and idk. Just letting you know it sounds familiar, and I'm so sorry if I'm totally wrong
If you have ever been knocked out, you would know this is completely possible. Time changes and everything gets strange. When you come to, it feels as if massive amounts of time have gone by.
I hope my other reply shows up. I went to fantasyland until I had EMDR therapy. In fact my real-life daughter is named after fantasyland daughter. And it's a little eerie because she has the same beautiful blue eyes. Sometimes I wonder a little if my amazing husband and kids are really really real. Then my toddler spends the day whining and I know they are LOL
I did this too. In fact, it didn't go away until I met and married my husband, and even some time after that. My daughter is named after my daughter in my fantasy world. EMDR therapy really stopped the escaping for me. Reality was finally liveable :)
Actually, that is an excellent coping mechanism that intelligent and creative people use. Not all people are able to enter “fantasyland” to deal with their traumatic experiences. I learned that when I finally went to see a therapist in my late 40s at the insistence of my supervisor. There was an incident at work that I used my sarcasm and humor to deflate. She found it inappropriate and called HR. They had me go to a therapist “just to be on the safe side.” The therapist told them my supervisor was an idiot (not in those terms, but close). I kept going to see the therapist until she retired. 😂
Maladaptive Daydreaming.
I also have a made up life.

Grieving something that never existed is still grief. What a difficult thing to experience.
Very true... When my husband and I spent 10 years trying to conceive, I would sometimes have what I call "baby dreams". It was always the end of my pregnancy or right after birth, either way baby would be born shortly before I woke up. I could spend either hours or days with this perfect little girl, fall in love with her, then wake up to reality. It broke my heart over and over again.
I rocked my baby son as he disappeared from my arms in my dreams for years. I never conceived, and now when I have the dream it is just me in a washed out, cobwebby nursery in a creaking old rocking chair all alone. I tell the never-existed little boy that I mourn that mommy misses him every day. I often wonder if it is a remembrance of a past life.
That is so true. And when people ask you what's wrong and you reply "I'm grieving my imaginary wife" people are so confused.
I can't believe someone else had this happen. I have had a very similar experience. I didn't do therapy though. It's been years and I have thought about it literally every single day since it happened. I know how he feels. It is very devastating. Back when I still believed in heaven, I always prayed that that's where I would go when I die.
I mean for real. It changed my entire life and I can't forget it. I used to be very energetic and always played basketball and football with my friends and after it happened I went into a deep depression and I still suffer from the depression. I don't even talk with people anymore. It fucked me up. I still can't believe I've found someone else like me.
You need to do yourself a favour and talk to a mental health professional about this since it is creating problems in your daily life. Please do.
I echo Monika. Please consider finding a therapist, then stick with it. There are people willing and capable of helping you process these feelings and work with depression. There is hope, even when you may not always believe that.
Find somebody you can talk to. Find a professional you trust, somebody you think understands you and let him/her help you. You deserve to be happy!!!
Damn just talking about it is depressing. I would give anything to go back.
Just had an intuitive hit that the accident somehow connected you to past life memories. Reincarnation is real. Your brain is not making up something that resonates to that degree. WAY suggest finding a Reiki Master and getting some energy work done to clear the current trauma and help you energetically align to the experience. Also, watch the new Netflix documentary Heal. Western medicine is amazing but is thousands of years behind ancient Chinese and Japanese practices.
I wanna know about it. Email me: serrarojas10@gmail.com
What was your experience if you don't mind me asking? No pressure tho if you don't want to say :)
I would like to tell you, but it is a lot. I can't tell the whole thing. At least not here. BP comments and replies can only be so long. Not enough room here.
I second that, I go would like to read about this as well. I've had similar experiences, and I'd like to hear about others. Thank you
You dreamed of people who don’t exist while you were unconscious ? Details?
Your brain created a dream for your conscious to escape to under great pressure to prevent you from suffering a heart attack and die. It is kinda common.
Not entirely "don't exist". Our brain is incapable of creating a human face from scratch. Whoever you meet in dream, you meet that person somewhere in real life before, and your brain recorded his face in your subconscious and use it as "actors" in your dream. Personality is random setting.

I had a similar experience back when I was 22, though mine took place while I slept one night. It ended when I passed at the age of 83 with my family around me. I woke up and rolled over to tell my wife about the messed up dream and remembered that she had passed five years earlier. Then when I realized where I was it dawned on me that she was part of the dream too. I'm now married with kids and whole it been almost twenty years I'll still occasionally have a little pang of fear before falling asleep. It would be interesting to get an update from the original poster.
I once dreamt of a younger sister and even younger brother. I did end up with the sister eventually, same first name too.
You know....... at one point I was coming of heroin (had been an addict for a fee years) and hadn't slept in about 7 or 8 days. Eventually had a mental breakdown and at some point slipped into a dream like state but was walking around doing some crazy shit. Eventually woke up in the hospital after my family had to call the cops on me because attacked them believing they had kidnapped me for my organs. This whole set of hallucinations roughly accounted for 4 months of experience in my head and is extremely detailed. Yet it all happened in about 2 days. It was absolutely the scariest experience of my life. I wouldn't leave the hospital for days because I couldn't distinguish between reality and the hallucinations from the days before. I was keeping a tally on the expiration date of the little milk containers they serve at lunch in a attempt to prove to myself I was back in the real world. Can't go into full details about what was happening in my head but it was so real to me that even now thinking about what was happening in my head can send me into a panic attack. I know it wasn't real , but to my brain and body it was real. It's like a lived experience that just never happened.
Once when I was asleep, I dreamt that I had grown up, was a successful CEO of a company and made a ton of money. It was so liifelike that when I woke up, I was disorriented for a few minutes then I wrote everything down. Since then, I have kept a dream journal in hopes of dreaming as realistic as that dream was.
Sounds like you might have had a lucid dream
I have lucid dreams all the time. But I usually know that I'm dreaming.
You might consider writing these dreams into stories. Very therapeutic.
Anybody interested in more stories like this one may be interested in the book "The Man Who Mistook his Wife for a Hat: and Other Clinical Tales" and pretty much anything else by Oliver Sacks.
I always give a mental snort and shake of my head, when i hear people say something is impossible... like they know everything that has ever been or could ever could be, in this universe or another... they would have to be omniscient, which is generally associated with being God (with a big G).
There are impossible things though. Like a married bachelor or a round square. Or a benevolent omnipresent omniscient being.
Maybe he caught a glimpse of his past life? If any of you believe in reincarnation that is. There are many stories out there about people seeing their past life they lived before their current one.
That's what I think also.
I was also thinking he could have experienced or had seen moments of a past life. Amazing story either way though.
When my Grandfather died many years ago, I was devastated. For about 3 years, I had frequent dreams where I would go over to my Grandparent's house to visit my Grandmother. I would start talking about Grampa dying, and she would say "What? Your Grandfather is not dead, he's just napping in the bedroom." Then, Grampa would come walking into the living room and he was perfectly fine. When I woke up from these dreams, I truly believed that he was still living. I would decide to go visit him that day. Then it would hit me, that it was just a dream. I still can feel the horrible grief of that realisation.
a late reply, but I too had the same experience about my grandmother that passed away in 2013. there is no week/month without me dreaming about her. In my dream I was always proved wrong either by my family or herself whenever I remember that she passed away. they will say something like "she's not dead, she just went to the store," etc. and I would feel so relieved when she came home. I believe we dreamt about that because we hope it is what's true.
I had a dog that I had raised as a puppy and she was my whole world, I lost a piece of my soul when she died. I still see her in every dream I have and then I think wait she died and then she will come running and want to be picked up or she’s sick in my dream but gets better. So odd but other dogs I was attached to that have passed away are also there and we are at the house that we grew up in before moving. She died about 6 years ago and like before I go to bed I’m not thinking about her at all but there she is in my dream waiting for me to come play with her. I also had my sister come to me after she died. We weren’t very close and didn’t live together and she had a lot of bad feeling towards me and I was just a child and didn’t know any better so a week after she died and she told me that it was ok and she was ok. We never found out what killed her she was 24 and I was 17. Her mom cashed in in her insurance. Her roommate Found her in the bathroom dead. She was in perfect health.
This is creeping me out for some reason. I think it’s because it was like a literal scene from a movie when he was waking up (lamp, weird noises, etc.) but it was like...real life for him. What. What if I at one point experienced this? That would freak me the hell out!!
That is amazing.
30 years after breaking it off with a woman I was passionately but destructively in love with for reason unclear to me, I began to dream of her. At first my dreams were mostly sexual and I'd wake up feeling guilty that I was cheating.Then over the weeks, then months that followed the strangest thing happened. I dreamt of her most nights and we were growing closer. It was no longer a tawdry affair. 6 months in she left her husband and kids and I left my wife in this progressive series of dreams. I should note my real, woke marriage is and has been spectacular. I felt like I was having a full, rich, real Dreamtim
Oops. Dreamtime relationship in parallel to my real life. This went on for two years. Each dream building on the last. My dreamtime lover and I had history and had shared so much ... in my dreams. I even talked to a counselor about this and she was baffled. I rolled with it until on day I picked up the phone and called her IRL. Remember we had not seen each for over 30 years and hadn't talked for three years. The conversation was pleasant and we actually got into some deep stuff about our crazy, passionate (real) 7 years together. I confided I'd dreamed of her often lately and she reminded me that I had always had potent dreams when we were together. It was very strange talking with her because now she's 60 and in my dreams we're both about 30. Hmmm. That night I did not dream about us. Nor the next. Nor ever again. It was an amazing experience and I feel lucky to have had it. And yes I told my wife about all this.
I understand this type of experience, and the void that it can leave behind. Years ago, before my third child, we had visited family in VA for the holidays and were on the way back home. When we reached the hotel, I fell asleep fast, and stayed asleep until morning, though in my mind, about 7 months had gone by. I remember these months as though they were actually events. I bought a pregnancy test on the ride home, took it the next morning, it was positive, and even though the timing wasn't ideal, we were ecstatic. We called everyone, went to base clinic, got a civilian OB, had the baby shower... I remember feeling kicks. I remember not being able to sleep one night because the next ultrasound was in the morning. I ran through all of my versions of "counting sheep", and finally drifting off, when Greg was waking me up. I felt wrong. When I touched my belly, and saw the hotel room, it felt like I had been punched in the chest. I had dreamed it all, but felt true mourning for that loss.
Ever want to know if you are dreaming? Try to read. You cannot read in your dream or write. the part of your brain that allows you to do that is not active in a dream.
Yes. Some people can. I worked with a physician that would read books in his dreams but they were his thoughts and then he turned them into his own books. I can also read in my dreams.
I distinctly remember a dream I had where for what felt like hours, but was probably a minute, I was reading a (really good) novel. Just before I woke I had a lucid aspect where I realised I was dreaming and it was me composing the novel as I read it. Feeling somewhat smug about my latent writing talent, I woke from the dream and while surfacing, I could still read the last few lines on the page before it faded - complete gobblegook.
I've always heard to look in a mirror. Is it your own reflection? In my case, it never is, and I know I'm dreaming. I can also willfully make things happen, or go back and change events.
I fly helicopters in my dreams - and can read the instruments
I can't read the time on a clock when dreaming.
No, in my dreams I very often read and/or write.
And look at a clock. The hands never move realistically
No, when I see a clock with hands in my dreams, the hands move normally.
The Inner Light - Star Trek TNG episode........look it up
Frankly, I just don’t find this believable. If he had been as badly injured as he claimed, no cop worth his salt would have dragged him across the sidewalk and grass and taken him to the hospital himself. If you come across someone who is injured, they could have unknown neck or back injuries and moving them further could have real medical consequences - including leaving that person paralyzed. Don’t do it!
Yes, and if someone on a motorcycle is in a wreck, don't remove the helmet. A lot of people don't know that.
My opinion exactly
This comment has been deleted.
I saw this on Star Trek Next Gen. It happened to Captain Picard. Sad episode.
I’ve had dreams where I fell in love with certain people and it felt amazing and I still am upset it’s not real lol
I never realised other people did that. I've had that experience a few times, finding someone who you could talk to without restraint. Then waking up and that kick in the chest as you realise it was a dream.
Wow just wow! First off I'm sorry the jock asshole lives up to the stereotype. I was a big guy in high school but not the biggest and got knocked down all the time in the field in the pecking order I knew my place. I've had similar experience when I tried to drink myself too death with a 5th of grain alcohol I almost succeeded. I however had the Heaven and Hell experience and met God. It was the most real truly real Thing I've ever experienced. More real than the phone I'm holding and typing this on and I don't know how to explain it. Just to say death is a doorway to our next path in existence. I say to the nihilism believers stop being so scared and live a good life now because what you do makes a big difference in the next part of your journey. Love as much as you can love everyone be generous and charitable don't let hate dominate your soul. Be a Uniter if people not a divider. Forgiveness is the most important thing because it's about keeping your soul healthy and un burdened.
Following these guidelines, your present life will be much more enjoyable and peaceful.
Welcome to the multiverse, fellow traveler. I'm glad you survived.
Dont know if this is a fun tale of an ideal life, but is excelent fo the script of a movie, a great movie, matter of fact, have i seen some like that? Could be is great.
I once have a dream that it is so real it feels like it is our real life, I pitched myself in the dream and I feel pain. I meet someone there and fell in love, been with her for few months and one day she just told me this is all not real and I woke up from the dream shortly after. I still dream of her occasionally but everything is no longer clear as before and her face is unrecognizable. Years later I meeting a gaming guildies in gathering and saw this girl who I have a love at first sight with, instantly knew she is that same girl in my dream. We are now together and after I told her the story we both found out that we have a mutual love at first sight and both of us have a deja vu that we meet somewhere else before.
believe it or not, the first time I meeting her parents and the first questions I got from her parents was: "Have we meet before? I have a feeling I meet you before." Believe it or it is entirely up to you.
I have had friendships that last years in my dreams and had that friend die. Or serious relationships. It took me days to grieve these not real people :(
Reminds me of the movie "Stay" with Ryan Gosling and Naomi Watts. Really underrated and mesmerising. Nearly the same plot. Hopefully he'll find someone to get/stay happy.
I have dreams that I am different people and fall in love. I mean real feelings for people I have never more nor thought I was attracted to.
I have dreams like this a lot. I miss my families when I wake up so much, but it's good to experience it on a lower level. Having experienced the pain of waking up after these dreams, I feel deeply sorry for this man. I feel his pain.
It's not so far fetched. Lots of people have vivid dreams of a very emotional relationship only to wake up the next morning and feel a great sadness that it wasn't real, so it's not so far a reach that trauma could extend a dream state like that seemingly for ten years in just moments. They say your life flashes before your eyes, but what if it's a potential life your mind doesn't realize hasn't actually happened.
As a child I had a dream of an actual life of decades time to then wake up and be totally crushed that it was real, well the other day it happened again and it's depressing, I deal like I lost so many loved ones. Is this a parallel world or pure concoction of the brain.
Imagine if he had discovered earlier and lived 10 years lucid dreaming as a god. And the inception top is actually a very good idea as well as checking text because any text in a dream is all messed up. I don't know what I would do if that happened to me maybe I would try to find the face of the girl because I should have seen that face before. So sad.
This exact same story was circulating back at the beginning of the 2000s when people used to send this kind of crap via hotmail along with power point presentation with stupid photos
I have almost died many times, and I have jumped into many other lives in my dreams. I really do worry that one of my near death experiences actually killed me, and I am just in one of those other lives or an illusion. I would shatter if I woke up and this life and these kids were gone.
Wow.
The guy who says the brain isn't strong enough to create its own faces is most definitely wrong. As for the story itself - it's Reddit. 'Nuff said.
Holy sh-
This reminds me of a story one of my friends is currently writing. It's about a 15 year old girl who falls into a coma after she fell off a cliff, and the story is about her dream while she's in a coma.
This is my testimony about the good work of a man who helped me. My life is back!!! After 8 years of marriage, my husband left me and left me with our three kids. I felt like my life was about to end, and was falling apart. Thanks to a spell caster called papa ork who i met online. On one faithful day, as I was browsing through the internet, I was searching for a good spell caster that can solve my problems. I came across series of testimonies about this particular spell caster. Some people testified that he brought their Ex lover back, some testified that he restores womb, some testified that he can cast a spell to stop divorce and so on.? There was one particular testimony I saw, it was about a woman called grace,she testified about how papa ork brought back her Ex lover in less than 72 hours and at the end of her testimony she drop papa ork e-mail address. After reading all these,I decided to give papa a try. I contacted him via email and explained my problem to him. In just 3 days,
I have actually experienced something like this in my past. When I was younger, around 5-9 years old, I saw this family in my dreams almost every night for a month. There was always the two girls, a son, and no parent figure. I still remember slight details about it. We had always watched this movie about people with superpowers. We had water gun/balloon fights. I mentioned it to my mom and she said that she had experienced the same thing when she was younger.
I hope something happened to that shit of a person that assaulted him.
As far as I know, these paralysis do excist and the souls have met together. Everything did happen on a soullevel through meeting a soulmate or soulcompanion. In my opinion, if people get back to reality they should enjoy what they have experienced all the time and think about what to bring with in real life.
Drugs are definitely good fun.
Your story is amazing! I really felt bad that you woke up to find it was all a dream. I have woken up from some very vivid dreams and always wondered if they were from a past life...
I get it. I've had similar experiences, not to this magnitude, but times that were so real...like I was living in another world at the same time. Reality blurs. Which is which. I hope he finds his lost life one day. Perhaps he will wake up there with no time passed
It's been a while since I've thought about this. Something similar happened to me when sleeping normally. And more than once. But nothing that would last for years as in this case. I cried and got depressed very hard and could not breathe because of the anguish. And I could not talk to anyone because I thought nobody could understand it. I remember well the person I lost but his name does not appear. All I wanted was to remember his name.
My Mum was very ill in hospital for 2 months recently, at one point near death due to bacterial infection/allergic reaction to warfarin. During this time she was in and out of consciousness and at one stage seems to have 'lived' in Thailand (she's never been there) in a small village as a child through to adulthood and almost married an older guy. She came out of this and could describe faces, smells, how bright the sun was. Also another time was a soldier in a (Maori) land war, 150 years ago and was dying in battle, and yet another time on a cruise ship where things went wrong but no one could get off (she said this 'reality ' was almost comical). When explained to a psychiatrist later, he said that the brain is a wild and wonderful place and will
Often make up other realities when the body is in trauma and this helps keep someone from going into severe shock and dying and possibly also keeps the brain moving when the body is in shock so you don't die (giving you something to live for?). We don't know fully how the brain works so can never really know but yes Italian all truly fascinating!
Why would a policeman have thrown him into the back seat of a police car face first if he was potentially extremely injured?
Wasn't there a Twilight Zone episode where this happened. Or Outer Limits, or some show like that?
I have very intense dreams every night. I wake up some mornings like this guy, though not as deeply affected as he was. Sometimes it is hard for me to throw off the depression even though I am quite happy in my "current" life
I had at times dreams where I led a very happy life somwhere else. Some of the people in these dreams came back over years and years, and sometimes I experienced the span of many days or weeks in a brief dream time, so it is all possible. In the end, everyone must decide what to believe. Maybe there are many realities, and he had a glimpse of another of his lives. At least I would chose to believe that. I hope he finds the strength to form a life here and is not consumed by the memory.
Do anyone ever experienced a dream about you were still kids and then turn to a teenager or adult in no time? Or onother dream feels like very long dream even though it just a night or even minutes? If you have experienced that then you will know that their experience can be true since mind moves fast (maybe even faster than the light) so the mind can created those images and story in a flash which makes ones perceive that those things have happened for a long periode. And for the 'feelings', since the mind already inclined that those things have happened for a long periode, it's feels more real and not that easy for ones to letting go. Believe it or not 😋
He just experienced a different reality/dimension/timeline/. It's not SF. Very interesting, though.
Wasn't this a black mirror episode?
AmaZing..i believe his story.i havnt experienced a near death experience.i believe we are spiritual beings in human bodies.i believe we all come back to earth to learn lessons.to evolve our souls.basicly,he remembered a previous life.thats what i think he experienced.
You are every character in your fantasies and dreams.
does limbo exist. 10 years is long time. i was in lucid dream before. i was in a goverment office, and while looking at the paper i noticed that the word on the paper constanly change and than i realized that i was on a dream, and i start flyin fighting t rex
I had a curly haired girl in a dream. She was a toddler. She laughed and smiled a lot. Then I woke up and she was gone. I felt such loss. I have only had boys. I love them all, but I still remember that dream and believe we can love and cherish people that never existed.
Reincarnation remembrance. I, too have had this in a dream state. I was never depressed. It changed my life forever, in an absolutely Soulful way. I am a better person for it.
Not a remembrance similar to yours at all. Something entirely different.
I have the same: There are nights I am meeting a guy named marcus. And he is very kind and gentle, his eyes were deep blue. Tbh, i can't describe his looks, but I am falling in love with him each time I meet him in my dream. He often laugh with me and talk with me, seems like we know each other for a long time-- Our clothes looks old tho [like we're not from the 20th century]. My dreams of him started when I was five and I'm 22 now; for already 2 years I haven't seen him in my dreams. Note: Each night I have atleast 1-2 dreams & i can barely remember its story. My dreams also affects my emotion.
Sounds like memories of a past life perhaps.
i think it's possible that it happened but i'm just wondering how did it get so clear in the dream that is 10 years? or like your child is 5 years old. I remember in dreams, it's always vague.
Try to summarize...I had a similar experience, yet diff. I was in hospital for 3 wks and I was really sick. Then I had a reaction(1st time) to a Rx. Hello days of what I call "Creating the Universe". But I was lucid, interacting, but not reacting to anyone/thing. Still remember EVERY detail. And it was positive, but I followed God's example "since He did such a great job"!?! And He helped me re-create MY universe slowly, but surely. 10 yrs later, it was an underlying illness. And ,so far, my 'predictions' came true 👍👎. Call it what you will, but I believe He helped me make a safe place to heal.💗🙏💗 And stay healthy!
I don't know if this is real, however, I have had acid trips where a twelve hour period feels like 3 weeks, and they say dmt is released when we die, so perhaps the dmt created this experience for him
I once had a dream like this but without other people. I was in the most beautiful place I've ever seen. There were mountains, and flowers that seemed to go on for miles. There were also extra colors. I don't know how else to explain but the flowers and some other things were colors that I didn't know existed. There was also a feeling of complete and total peace that I have never felt before or since. I woke up extremely angry because I wanted to go back but couldn't get there. I have tried over and over to get back there so I could feel the contentment but have never been able to.
Silent Lucidity .....
This is pretty much a twilight zone episode. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_World_of_Difference
Is it possible his subconscious brought up a previous life?
That guy really bumped you hard enough to send you to another dimension! Whoa! (cue Bill and Ted's electric guitar)
it could have been his glimpse to his past life
This is like "The Occurance at Owl Creek Bridge"... has anyone read that? Guy lives a lifetime in a split second
If you like stories like this, you could just join Reddit and you would have heard about it like hundreds of times in the last seven years since the OP wrote it.

Sorry, but I don't believe this in the slightest. Also who uses the phrase "bore me a son"???
Easy Peasy - find the same football player dude, pish him off until he knocks the snot out of you then - happy life, happy wife! Problem solved!
All buzzfeed posts are internet BS.. poorly written at that.. who uses expressions like "she bore me a son"? cheesy trite internet crapola..
she bore him a son and she bored him?
No, his wife “bore” him a son after a daughter, but that son was the “joy of his life.” What an ass.
Well, becuase of the multiverse theory and the idea that every universe plays put simultaneously it is entirely possible he tapped into a parallel universe for a bit. There's no way to prove / disprove it, assuming its impossible is highly ignorant. Its plausible that is his life in a different world.
I'm glad he didn't live this, the mention of his son being the light of his life, creeped me out, not sure daughter would appreciate that much. Mourning a dream that is perfect isn't the same as mourning a real person or family, it can't possibly have the complexity of emotion that comes with real Parenthood. Nice made up story though.
I totally agree with you, that creeped me out as well.
This was NOT a Near Death Experience, which I had when I was 5 and died on the operating table. This story sounds like an LSD experience. LOL.
Who are you to say? Are NDE's all the same? Does your experience of an NDE negate the possibility of someone else's being different?
