Its gotta be the truth.

It was a life changing experience because, as you stated, your life wasn't going well, then you had hallucinations caused by a non-normal brain state.
Some people believe they were abducted by aliens, encounter incubus or succubus, dead relatives, etc all under the same brain state.
All you have done is misinterpreted this natural, although unusual brain state.
Research: night terrors, hynogogic states, sleep paralysis.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

I jumped off my bed, I looked around my room to see where did he vanished! I could't find him, then i noticed the room door was still closed, no one could possibly entered, I opened the door and i took a stroll around the house, i have discovered that my brother's room door was closed and locked as usual, and the other room door was closed as well. Then i stumbled upon my Grandmother's room, It was open, and the light was on... I entered the room and saw my Grandmother sitting on a chair and praying to God. I didn't disturb her, i was in complete shock and left the room, never told any member of my family. Because if I told them about the Angel encounter, they will criticize me for not following my Duty as a true Muslim by praying 5 times a day, and they will say something like, you see God knows you committed a great sin and your going to hell! so he revealed himself to you, in order to convince you to pray.

Oh please!
"I don't have another explanation, must have been an angel".
This is what is known as the 'argument from ignorance' fallacy.
Sorry, but not having a better explanation does not mean your ridiculous supernatural explanation becomes more plausible by default.

Yes, it vanished when your brain reached a more normal operating state.

Okay, this statement sounds like you just added an extra, unnecessary bullshit detail to an already bullshit story. Am I getting close?

Dude, do you think i am that ignorant to make a ridiculous judgment call as seeing a true Angel or not? The spirit had wings, it certainly wasn't a Flying Spaghetti Monster, It wasn't a weird looking Flying Giant Rat; It was a creature beyond our imagination. This is my true description of the Angel I saw, and in the Book of Daniel He gives the same encounter.
