My story! I am an Ex-Muslim, became and Atheist. I was visited by an Angel of God.
Re:
Quote:I agree with you on this matter. I have another weird experience, but i already know the explanation of it. 


A while back I went into surgery and after it was over, the Doctor prescribed me Antibiotics treatment, I have to take the pills twice a day for 5 days. The drug caused me severe side effects, including hallucinations. I could not fall a sleep, i was up in my bed for 6 hours straight. during these hours I was experiencing strange nightmares were I am playing as character from a video game called Portal, In my mind I am having dream like visions that I am jumping from portal to portal shooting laser using a gun just like in the game. I felt it was real, because i was half conscious and not completely a sleep. 

My explanation that i was under the influence of Antibiotics drugs, and it somehow interfered with my memory and formed this weird vision. If you notice, here we have a clear sign of hallucination, am i correct?


Right, now we're making progress. It's also a proven fact that your brain can retroactively change memories. What you remember is never set in stone, and it's surprisingly easy for memories to be completely rewritten and not even be aware of it.
Wanna know something embrassing? One time when I was absolutely smashed, and also high as fuck, I literally believed I was Thor. I don't mean I was pretending to be him, I mean I was completely convinced he and I were one and the same. My brain - temporarily, mind you - had rewritten itself after being addled by drink and drugs as well as dealing with moderate depression, and resulted in such thrilling escapades like me trying to open my hotel door by summoning lightning to blast it down with.
What I'm saying is...memory is not set in stone, even to a sober, healthy, well-rested human being. When you factor in sleepiness or sleep deprivation, an imbalance in brain chemistry due to antibiotics or other drugs, or stress, or depression, or epilepsy, you get shit like what you experienced happening.
