From March
16, 2006 my seizure activity had increased. I was having unknown amount of
seizures. My wife was working and was not there to keep track of them. As a
result I got more and more depressed. Then on May 4, 2006 I apparently had
multiple seizures and during my buzz zone as I call it (that is where I am not
fully awake or not having a full seizure) I took 40 100mg Elevil. My wife
called the ambulance and I went to the hospital.
While in
the E.R. I remember falling asleep. When I was "asleep" I remember floating
above my body I could see the Dr.'s and nurses in my room. I continued to float
away, the farther I went the calmer things felt around me. I remember hearing
soft gentle sounds around me but couldn't make out any particular sound or
song. Also the further I went I could here voices of people calling to me to
continue coming. I felt total love and acceptance from the voices. I started
seeing shapes of people but couldn't make out any faces or sexes all were the
same. They all showed love, understanding, and compassion for, like I have
never felt. Then I started hearing another voice telling me to "drink this." I
didn't want to at first. but as I continued to listen I drank the drink. It
tasted horrible and I didn't want to drink anymore but the voice kept saying to
keep drinking and to drink it all and I would be alright. The next thing I
remember was waking up.
I was so
angry that I wasn't able to stay with those other people that I have sought
anyway possible to get back there. I can't commit suicide because I promised my
wife I wouldn't do that again but I still look and hope that I can get back
there as soon as I possibly can.
