Question about near death experiences

[MarioWorldGamer]

 

It's clear that you may have deeper concerns that cannot be adequately addressed through open forums like this or with anyone other than a specialist, where you live, with whom you can discuss your concerns face-to-face. Obsessions can be most debilitating and, perhaps, it would be wiser to consultant with someone in your area regarding your experiences. I hope this helps.

 

I also want to know this very important question as well. Is it worse to experience an intense negative emotion in a nightmare or a negative emotion just as intense while fully awake? Or is it just as bad?

Nightmares may appear more intense because they are created by and envelope the same mental environment that creates and envelopes your consciousness within that experience. Conscious experiences are dissimilar in that your conscious environment also envelopes your physical/material perception of true reality, which can dilute your conscious mental focus and emotional experiences. Nightmares and NDEs are alike in that they are transitory unconscious mental experiences, not reality. Reality--that which has a real physical/material impact on our survival--should be our focus above any experience without substantive consequences such as NDEs. Your concerns about NDEs will likely not abate with any answers provided other than those obtained through a face-to-face focused discussion with a specialist familiar your type of concerns or obsession. I strongly suggest that you consider seeking such a specialist should your concerns remain unabated. I hope this helps.

That was a bit hard for me to understand. So could you answer this question I am about to ask here with a yes or a no? Negative emotions (such as hopelessness) are said to be powerful and intense just as they are in nightmares. But the difference here is that you are not fully conscious during a nightmare while you are fully conscious during a near death experience. So does the fact that a person is fully conscious during a near death experience somehow make the experience of depression not as bad as it would in a nightmare even though the depression is just as powerful of an experience in a nightmare as it is in a near death experience?

All claims of consciousness near death are without merit unless an individual is fully cognizant of his or her surroundings and experience in physical/material reality during that event. If NDEs are as immersive as they are purported to be, then they are very likely not conscious experiences. NDEs appear to arise from an altered state of brain function likely associated with the physiological and/or mental distress of potential death. The answer to your question is not a simple yes or no and I doubt my opinion will assuage your concerns. The central issues here, as I perceive them, are depression and obsession, which you should seriously consider addressing through a mental healthcare specialist rather than rely on any opinion you might receive in this forum. I'm confident that a specialist in your area can and will help you resolve your concerns. I wish you well.
