Thread: I need help with post-dreaming

Hi guys. As my first post, I just wanted to say that this site is so incredible and resourceful that I would like to give all of the creators my greatest thanks. Thank you very very much for it.

I also had a question, k, i'm not sure how relevant this is to lucid dreaming, but I considred them to be closely related: out of body experiences. I've been searching the net and asking several people about how to go about that and I was wondering if anyone who has experienced them/has any knowledge would be kind enough to give me some tips and articles about them. I would desperately like to have one and basically have been winging it and hoping i'm doing the right thing.

What I do is basically to sit/lie very very still until my body feels like it's asleep or just very calm, but I keep my mind racing. I've been practicing for four days, but recently when I reach that level and pretend that my third eye is opening and i'm walking through it, I get this intense/pleasureable mind/body buzz. It's impossible to describe, but its as if there is lightning going through my body and it doesn't go away for a while, even after I finish my session. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Also, it's probably important that I mention that I am kind of schitzophrenic. I've been diagnosed with a very very very very mild version of it. It could be that it's acting up, or perhaps i'm on the verge of something (hopefully the latter). Once again, thank you very much in advance.
