This is Following here, and it's my first post on this website. Originally I wanted to put this on the Psychic Experiences site but decided that it was probably better suited for this one. If you think it belongs on a different site, though, please tell me in the comments (most likely though I will not respond, though I do need help).
This has been happening to me for many years now but I never paid much attention to it until one day when I was very, very little and my older cousin taught me how to get in the ocean just so, so that the waves would toss you (unlike for her, it was something of a nightmare for me) and from that day on I realized that I had something to compare it to.
It's very hard to explain, but sometimes it feels like I am in shallow water, completely under, and the waves roll over me. It only happens when I am lying AWAKE in bed. Moreover, I have come to dub it "Vibrating" though that was when I was far younger and thought it wasn't very strange (once I told my parents and found I could not explain it, I realized it was) and didn't pay much mind to it, as I would think of my body and my 'soul' or 'spirit' (as my younger self described it) separating from each other somewhat and my 'soul'/'spirit' weaving around my actual body.
I know this to NOT be an Out-Of-Body Experience because it's not while I'm asleep, nor does my 'soul'/'spirit' elevate from my body and look at my body. I am completely awake when this happens. Vibrating, of course, really is not the greatest term for it but I continue to refer to it as such. It doesn't happen to me as often anymore as it used to (almost every night) but still happens once in a while.
Does this happen to anybody else? If so, is it common or rare? And is there a name for it? I'm very sorry that I can't explain this too well. Thank you so much!
