Hi Bonnie-

I too, have had several out of body experiences. The most recent was due to and extreme amount of stress. I was having conversation with someone and we had both just ordered salads I walked over to the utensils and started to ask him he wanted a knife then thought better of it (who needs a knife for a salad). At that same moment another woman in the deli asked her friend if she wanted a knife. As my friend and I were sitting down I commented to him on the funny coincidence. He looked at me confused and said that I did ask him and that no one else has said it. Basically I left my body and my actions seemed as though they were someone elses because I was not experiencing them directly. I played it off to him but was immediately disturbed and called a therapist who told me I had experienced "disassociation" a reaction to extreme stress. I have had two other out of body experiences, during one I was staying in someones house and woke up to my "self" coming back to my body from across town. I could elaborate but I saw things that, for me, solidified the truth of the situation.
