Hey every body. I'm 26 and from Denmark.

Wow I have been totally thrilled to read all the stories – and had the exact same feeling as many of you – (“Do other people really also experience this” )

So I have experienced this thing or feeling for as long as I can remember, maybe with a frequency of 3-10 episodes pr. month in my early childhood, to now only having the experience ones a month maybe. This is the first time I have ever considered googling it – and it was of course an episode of this feeling which triggered it. I have just ended one with a duration of 10 minutes, which actually is the most common length. And when they are longer, the first one will sort of ware of, and then a new "wave" will hit me.

So for me it most often occurs when I’m lying in bed, before I go to sleep, but I have also experienced it out of bed. The best way I can describe it is with the word synchronicity - like I’m out of sync with the world or wise versa. Anyway it defiantly gives me this strong feeling of Spiderman effect, as someone else described it, as if I suddenly can comprehend 10 times more. I can be extremely disoriented and also extremely concentrated in this state, and just sort of focus in and out at freewill. When I shut my eyes it will feel if I’m totally detached to the outside world, or like it isn’t there at all, or like I am everything there is, and when I then open them again, I will usually struggle a bit to get my focus again, kind of when you are really drunk and you have to be extremely concentrated to keep your focus, and when you final get focused again, the outside will sort of settle down.
I remember being a bit scared of it in my childhood, but now I actually just find I sort of amusing, and a quite interesting phenomenon, considering I’m suddenly not the only one any longer after reading all of this.

So I also happen to do a lot of yoga and meditation, have done it over the past 8 years, and when I’m in deep meditation, so like 1+ hours, I can also get this feeling some of you are describing, with one being infinite big and infinite small and sometimes both at the same time, and I will also get this sort of tingling all over the body - a vibrating feeling. And it is exactly the same thing I will experience when I have "this” feeling most of us are talking about - which is anything else but anxiety, panic attacks etc., as some of you are mentioning by the way.
So here are my two cents. Meditation are known and well documented to release natural DMT, along side REM Sleep and Death known so far - and I wouldn’t be surprised if a high fewer could also trigger this, as some of you are mentioning will trigger it. So are the experiences we get a sudden involuntary release of a small amount of DMT? It would explain why it would course similar experiences along side deep meditation and why it only last a short while, and why et feels like a switch is suddenly switch on, or a wave coming over you, and it has a peak (at least for me) and a natural comedown where it will decrees slowly in intensity. Wow it just felt like a huge insight just hit me.
And also why it can occur when you are extremely concentrated - because where do you draw the line between deep meditation and extremely concentration?
What do you think?

Now it is just up for science to understand the what’s and why’s about DMT :P

But hay - shouldn't it have a name? We all describe bits and pieces of the same phenomenon. But what do we call it? “The Switch” Maybe???
