I had an NDE- got peritonitis in hospital when really sick, went into convulsions, Docs rushed into room to revive me-and while it happened, I had the NDE-

Didn’t go to heaven though, went to hell- it’s a long frightening story- and certainly not a biblical one- but suffice it to say the experience left me shaken

My personal belief is that my high fever during the convulsions caused the brain’s synapses to fire wildly, giving a ‘lucid dreaming-like’ experience-

The reason I have my doubts about actual NDE’s is due to the fact that my visions while experiencing this near death-like experience were unbliblical- I was ‘given a test’ whiel in hell, where I had to count the sounds- bells ringing- I was covered in sand completely, hard to breath, and I was struggling to breath and trying to hear the sounds over my breathing- I counted for awhile, but they got too fast and I lost count, and began to weep- a voice said “Don’t worry, there is no heaven or hell, you don’t exist

I immediately felt a crushing sense of .. I dunno really how to explain it, other than ‘non-existence’ where I was somehow conscious of not existing- that is what shook me the most when I came to again- and really messed with my mind for a long time-

Bottom line, I had a ‘near death’ experience of some kind, but don’t think it was an actual passing on/over- but rather more aq brain synapse system going haywire, but what has me a bit confused, is why did the brain automatically go right to death/afterlife and not something else like perhaps recalling childhood, or perhaps think about things I liked, or wanted to do in life, or of people I knew etc- why did it go right to death/afterlife visions/experience? Is that just what overactive synapses do? I can’t really say for sure what happened in my experience, but suspect it was just high fever, crazy synapses causing the experience
