The Story

nde suicide attempt positive Significant Transformation 8/10 Intensity

Irlene was a woman who attempted suicide due to feelings of depression and inadequacy. During her near-death experience (NDE), she felt relief as she left her body and observed herself. She encountered dark shadows and entered a dark, cold place filled with suffering souls. Irlene felt their pain and realized she did not want to remain in that state. She asked for forgiveness and a second chance, which led to a bright light that embraced her. She returned to her body, feeling renewed and without pain. After the experience, Irlene found a new sense of purpose. She returned to church, began working again, and sought to understand her experience, feeling a strong connection to her daughter and a desire to live fully.

so I never asked God for anything and I never had this willingness to keep asking because I believed that he already knew everything
