Having had two 'Near Death experiences' which were very similar in nature, I wondered if different people experienced different versions. ie; floating, bright light, meeting loved ones, clawing by demons etc.

Mine had all who had ever lived flash before my eyes almost in a blur. This was followed by a wonderful release and letting go of the past into a beautiful feeling of freedom.

Near death experience huh?
Well I've seen my self dying at my sleep twice. One was a violent death in which I was fighting with this guy. he pinned me down and tried to plunge a knife at my throat. I tried to stop him but he was slowly beating me to it. I woke up as I was drowning in my own blood in the dream. I hope I never see this person in real life.
And I have also seen my self commiting suicide. Perhaps the most purging dream i ever had. I woke up crying and felt so relieved.
But I did have an actual near death experience.
I dozzed off in the bus one day and found my self in a huge pool filled with everyone I have ever met in my life. Everyone was playing and it was fun until someone pushed me under the water. I hate it when it happens but I smiled and thought it was just for fun. But they would not let me come back up again. I panicked and struggled to dive back up until i felt going numb and cold. I woke up from the sound of the bus stopping. It was about five stops after the one I got on. I was cold and my skin a bluish colour and everyone in the bus was looking at me as if they had seen a ghost. I nearly drowned my self in my sleep. Its almost 3 years now that I have not gone for a swim... And not even near a swimming pool....

I was lucky to survive an asthma attack last year and I saw all my memories and experiences come flashing past my eyes like watching a movie on fast forward. Only for the fact that I forced myself to keep fighting (the urge to leave it all behind ) made me go on.

Dear peter,
Wow! your experiences must have changed you so much?. I don't think people can go through near death experiences without having developed strong personalities or an ability to be insightful of others or of ensuing or potential danger.
I once took an overdose of pills at 19 because I broke off with my family for very personal reasons but I was abused as a child and this had caused me to want to end my life. I somehow survived it but recall waking from the hospital bed seeing what looked like a black spinning hole with white icy cones around the outer-edge of the hole???? - I still to this day don't know what it was but it was definitely something and I turned my back on it in the bed and it did dissapear but I felt leg pains afterwards.
A few days later, there was an old man who looked as if he had died and came back from another world and had snow white long hair and a black cane to help him walk. He sat in the visiting area of the hospital as if he was waiting to be seen by a doctor. It was the day I got out of hospital and as I went past the waiting area, I saw him. He looked like he had just arrived but must have been there for hours because you have to have a morning appointment to get seen on a saturday.
I had looked at him all the time I was coming out of the ward and into the waiting area and he didn't even notice me watching. I don't even now why I was but it was as if I knew he was there already. There was a child and mother playing on the floor with a spinning top and the old man kept using his cane to control it's spin. It was coming in my direction and it hit my boyfriend's feet. Neither of us said anything but he picked it up and said to the child that it was a fast toy!.
The old man looked at me and my boyfriend and said, yes, but it only spins so fast because there is nothing to guard it here. I did not understand what he meant and felt freaked out by him. We went to the cafe for a coffee. I never saw him again, but ever since, I have constantly drawn spirals on my pads and can't get the meaning of this man out of my mind?. What did he mean by nothing guarding it?. - I have tried so hard to make sense of his words since but I can't figure it out at all.
That was 14 years ago now. I don't know whether I had a near experience or not, but I can say for certainty that it wasn't just nothing either. I still feel that it meant something and one night last year, I was walking to work as I used to work on the railway and saw a train stop along the track on my route. A man had been killed because he threw himself on the lines. My legs felt a lot of pain after what had happened and yet, I hadn't even been involved with the accident! - I saw that same old man with long hair a few days later and in the waiting room of the railway station! - He hadn't aged and I knew it was him because he had the same cane and looked exactly how I remembered him all that time ago.
If this isn't freaky I don't know what is. I never said anything to him because I was in too much shock. All I know is that there is so much more to us than what we know already and this is the closest I have ever come to anything paranormal for sure. I think some things are just left unexplainable, but I do believe that there is a lot more we do not understand. This is my experience anyway but don't know if it has answered your question?
