Hi, Let me first tell you a bit about myself. I have always been interested in spirituality, even when I was very young. I've started meditating about 2 years ago, at least trying to. I've never actually had any psychic experiences until I moved into a new room in a students home.
The first time I had a notable experience when meditating was about a year ago (about a month after moving in). I got a really weird experience, like my body was stretched out. Then there was only a feeling you could compare to an orgasm. After being in this state for a while I felt something coming towards me. I got this really bad feeling, so I immediately opened my eyes and started walking around the room. Since then I stopped meditating for some time.
About 6 months after the experience I had a nightmare, nothing special about that, but then the nightmare suddenly stopped. Everything turned black and I heard this screaming. At the same time I got a feeling that compares to the bad feeling I got with the first experience, but then a lot more intense. This was the most terrifying feeling I had ever had in my entire life. This went on for about 10 seconds and then I woke up.
The last 2 experiences are nothing compared to the one I had a month ago. I woke up from a nightmare, around 5:20 in the morning. I could feel wind blowing on my face from the radiator I had standing next to me (it helps me fall asleep at night). Suddenly I saw a shadow in the form of a person sitting right in front of me (about 20cm). I could hear the screaming again, and the same feeling I got before, only even more intense. I could feel her hand in mine, it was a wrinkled hand, not very large. I couldn't move any part of my body, the only thing that seemed logical at the time was squeezing her hand as hard as I could. My hand moved a little bit and it seemed to go straight through her. Then suddenly it stopped, everything turned back to normal. The room suddenly seemed a lot lighter then it had been before.
I wasn't dreaming, I'm 100% sure of that. I was lying in the same position when it happened and after (position was rather strange, I was lying on my side with one arm behind my head and the other lying on my side). The weird thing is that I was actually rather calm when it happened. It was only after, when I realized what happened, that I started getting scared. I called up my father and I started crying when I tried to tell him what happened (I almost never cry).
Since then I wake up every night at around the same time, I always have this strange feeling like someone is in the room. I also have a nightmare every week now, before this happened I maybe had a nightmare every 6 months. This might just be some form of post-traumatic stress, but I doubt it.
I don't know what to do about this, I really want this to stop. Every time this happens it gets worse, I don't want to know what the next step is. Any advice would be welcome!
Despite your inability to make contact with it, try to comfort it nonetheless.
Be wary though, if it has as much physical impact on you as you say, it could try and occupy part of you. I will try and sojurn the dream world with you, and see how I can stop this. Be brave.
