near death experiences

alright, so there's two of 'em that come to mind. teh time i was down in england, and the time i was out in cbus.

so in england i was, i guess... must have been either before '91 or during the '94 - '95 period but i do remember my mom beign able to pik me up and turn me upside down so it must've been when i was quite young, like five or younger. anway, we get out of my swimmming lcass, the ground there in teh swmiming pool was gravelly. and then what else is there. the whole uh... situation with uh... yeah... something. there was like i guess rainy ground and there was a three wheeled car and we'd go across the street to park. anyway i got inside the car and ate a hard cnady, and it got suck in my throat. i began choking, and my mom noticed, she picked me up turned me upsde down and eventually i spit it out. that was incident number one hah.

so in columbus i was hanging out with a kid called kirby messer and in an apartment complex called harrison apartments. we were messing with a drug called DXM. it was an over the counter that was sold at any pharmacy. we would get ours from the CVS pharmacy on Lane avenue and High street. so basically we would take the pills, about 3 or 4 bottles each, and then walk around campus and have visions. we did this a few tmies, this was the final time. i had taken more than ever before, and kirby had as well. and i roamed, and eventually blacked out. i woke up in hospital with tubes attatched and my clothes gone. i was naked under a gown. whats more i was groggy, and my vision was blurry. a doctor was ahead of my face when i first came around, and was conscious, and was telling me to take better care of myself, that i was found unconcious and that i could have been killed. he was trying to stress that point with me. it was a shock to wake up in unfamiliar circumstances. you feel restrained. and you feel lost. it took me a few hours to reailze i had my cell phone, using it i called a friend, nick arnold, who lived in the apartment complex, harrison apartments, and was kirby's roommate, and my next door neighbor from the previous year in ohio state, in the dormitorys. after a few calls he drives to the hospital and picks me up. i was in a state of shock. i was scared and bewildered, i was freaked out, and completely spooked. i was very tense and every step was making my heart flutter and breath rapid. i ended up at their apartment, face to face with kirby, and i yelled at the guy for a good long while before i left. the guy had just left me out in the middle of nowhere. that was some freaky shit. but it taught me a lesson. after that, i had a very good reason to stop drugs. and for teh most part i did. i never touched DXM again. i did smoke some weed after. and some other things. but that was it. and i never felt good about drugs again.
