out of body experiences while sleeping
Could this be considered an out of body experience?
About six years ago, I was a little depressed and spent my days lamenting in my home. I slept a lot during the day and I was awake at night. One day, I slept until noon, but could not get up. I recall, upon reflection, that I urged myself to get up, but was “too weak.” Again and again, “this person – me” told myself to wake up. I wonder, if I was having an out of body experience. To me at that moment, my body seemed dead and I was standing beside myself.
Occasionally, I think of this experience, but I am not certain what it was. By the way, I was not on any medications and I'm much better today. At that period in my life, I had no goals. I had graduated from HS and was going through the first semester of college.
I am interested in astral projection, but a little afraid to pull my spirit to my body…

Given your description, it is a quite possible that you had an outside the body experience while sleeping. What you describe sounds similar to what occurs when astral projecting, when the the energy body or spirit leaves the body and can travel to other places.
While I am not a psychologist and nothing I say here should be construed as medical advice, I suspect your bout of depression loosened up your consciousness and belief system which allowed you to be aware of this experience. Or It could be that in dealing with your emotional turmoil you, your body opened itself to finding new answers in this unusual way.
And the actual experience you detailed, may have been the lesson you were seeking. While you were telling yourself to wake up from your sleep, you were actually telling yourself to wake up to your life and move on to the new phase of your life…
It is normal to be a little afraid of things that are basically new or unknown to us. Knowledge and more experience is the usual answer to such concerns. There are many good resources available about astral projection. I recommend, Astral Projection Underground, because of its extensive background information about the astral plane and astral travel, as well as it extensive astral projection techniques. But if you review the many pages of this website, you will find many other sources as well.
