Eventually this sadness was unbearable one night as I couldn't sleep due to a very heavy bout of depression lasting for hours and feeling nauseous to boot. For the first ever time in my life (being mostly agnostic and never attended a church, but believing in wishes and that good things come out of bad) I called out with tears running down my face specifically to God or my dad (who passed away when I was seven years old) to help me understand what was wrong and help me.

Almost immediately, I felt my pain go away replaced by passive listening/observing and calmness. A calm, gentle large white light came over my vision briefly and told me to write two things down on my phone (one of the two things was specific to overcoming this illness, which involved not doing a particular 'sin' which I was doing everyday at the time (stealing food from supermarkets), and the other came in handy about 6 months later to do with investments in Bitcoins, which said 'no bitcoins', eventually saving me a lot of money)

After I wrote these down, I seemed to be still on my bed but sat up straight, feeling calm and content. My whole vision then slowly turned from the dark room, to fizzy glowing white gold, and I felt like I was being lifted up or teleported somewhere special, which felt incredibly exciting at the time. This place was in the clouds somewhere not like Earth, with a  city or place in the clouds in the distance to the right of my centre of vision. My first thought was that the city looked like Disney world, the main Cinderella castle but much bigger, more towers and just magical. It looked amazing and just gorgeous with the clouds all around and pinkish bluish sky.

I could also see myself in full view in this world, hard to describe with words but sort of to the left of my centre of vision much closer than the castle, was me as a black/void rectangle floating. It seemed I had a body but it was either censored from vision or not created, as if I wasn't supposed to be there yet, like a glitch, and was still an Earthly being. Even though I saw no other people or things there, I got the feeling that they would be confused as to my presence there as a void and possibly try to get away from me, which I found funny.

I was there for about 30 seconds, eventually coming back to my bed just as I left it, sat upright and calm in the dark room. Lots of insights came to me about life and my place in it, how not to worry about money or clothing or your life, and find enjoyment and love, truth and excitement, make true friends and be yourself.

Since this experience, for the past year I have had dreams showing me the day or days to come, dream warnings about certain people who I have never met and then later meet that day, and showing me distressing or memorable events in that day and they happen and the dreams the night before help me overcome them calmly without strong emotion in a way. It still surprises me to this day, also recently I can tell when people are lying and cannot think of hurting or killing anything now not even flies or bugs. I also feel a presence to the right of me and sometimes see a glowing yellow/white alive, lighted swirling fiery piece of energy to the lower right of my vision when I come to a truth in my mind or am struggling to decide on something I find important. Also to my left a strong invisible force if I'm about to do something not so wise, such as betting money)

it's not all amazing, I still feel lost sometimes and lonely as I'm still finding myself at this stage. On days like this, certain lyrics from a song and music will be in my head when waking, generally pleasant songs that give a general feel for the day and words to live by, such as today it was 'One day my father told me, live a life you will remember' and my dream said 'life is a story, time is enjoyable each second and moment, live like this'. Yesterday I was feeling a little cold on the inside so it was appreciated.

This experience and consequent 'psychic' powers have completely changed my outlook on life and put me on the right track hopefully for rest of adulthood, I understand some of my mission here is as a being to help certain people accept themselves, teach them what I know and saw when they want to know or ponder questions to me, also to make love and somehow create a small business with somebody later in life.

How did your highest level of consciousness and alertness during the experience compare to your normal everyday consciousness and alertness?      More consciousness and alertness than normal   No runaway thoughts or uncertainties like in everyday life, just curiosity and understanding of what I could feel and see

Please compare your vision during the experience to your everyday vision that you had immediately prior to the time of the experience.   Vision was completely clear when seeing the other place in the sky, like ultra high definitely reality. Also colors now and green and red  especially look more brilliant in life since this time.

Please compare your hearing during the experience to your everyday hearing that you had immediately prior to the time of the experience.   No particular sounds at all, mostly just seeing and 'knowing' things, direct voice into my head at the start when told to write things down

Did you see or hear any earthly events that were occurring during a time that your consciousness / awareness was apart from your physical / earthly body?   No  

What emotions did you feel during the experience?   Peace, curiosity, childlike almost, some slight sadness at one point  

Did you pass into or through a tunnel?   No  

Did you see an unearthly light?   Uncertain   See description

Did you seem to encounter a mystical being or presence, or hear an unidentifiable voice?   I encountered a definite being, or a voice clearly of mystical or unearthly origin
The first light which alleviated my pain and told me to write things down, not sure who it was as I called out to God and my father. Also the ball of energy that guides me sometimes in life nowadays.

Time didn't seem to matter as I was not in an earthly body where things deteriorate or change.

Some insights came to me about life here in this universe and body, and continue to do so as I go on.
