There is definitely a shut-down procedure that the body goes through and it appears to be peaceful. But in many cases I do think there is a terrible moment when your conscious brain is still alive and you realize you are dying. It looks when you see it exactly like a scared animal looks, if you’ve ever seen that.
I’ve only seen it twice but it doesn’t leave you.
- gavinray 3y agoAs someone who has had both a physical death experience (flatlined, no heartbeat for several minutes) and psychedelic-induced death experiences, my experiences of the two were quite different. Physical death for me involved no "white lights" or life-flashes. It was just pure, black nothing. Like a dreamless sleep -- you go to bed, and then next thing you know you're waking up. Everything in between was a blank, black nothing, with no sense of time. Psychedelic death experiences were a thousand times more intense and I still retained some element of base level consciousness.
