Is it normal to have a dream like this...?

So, it is now night time where I am but I slept in a little late today, so I dreamt while sleeping during the day today.
It was literally the most terrifying dream I've ever had so much that it is deterring me from actually sleeping now. Anyway, here it is- I had this dream that I was watching myself dying. In the dream I was lying in a hospital bed, surrounded by family and doctors. (I was out of my body watching myself); I recall hearing my mother say to the doctor that I over dosed on 2 bottles of liquid medication. My mother and one of my sisters were each holding my hands. My sister said to me "it's okay, you really need to go home now, if that's where you want to be and you'll be happy then you can let go", she almost sounded angry and bitter. I then began breathing irregularly - short and stifled breaths, generally breathing quite funny, and as I watched this unfolding, I could also feel it very strongly and it was absolutely petrifying because in my dream I knew that I was dying. I saw a doctor rush to my bedside where my mother repetitively spoke in panic "she's going, she's going, she's going..." alongside my sister who repetitively ushered a similar response to my funny breathing. Although they had been saying I was going... I knew that I had already gone. In my outer body experience I watched a girl who had also been dying tell her doctor what song she wanted played at her funeral. I watched the girl die, peacefully, after she had made this wish. My family then watched as I died (even though I knew I had already died before they thought I did); I remember going on Facebook on my phone to see loads of posts saying "RIP" but it wasn't my name, it was someone else's name, I cannot remember the name I had read in the dream. Anyway, my sisters were all gathered together, I then went around one by one touching them, patting their backs, screaming, but nobody heard me, felt me, or responded in any way except for one of my sisters. I told her that I couldn't accept the fact that I died and that I didn't want to leave and go over to the other side (heaven); then I started to walk, then run, then creep--- I was met by a bright light so I halted. I then met this beautiful, kind blonde haired fairy-like lady who reached out her hand to me and motioned for me to come repeating the words "cmon cmon cmon"... she had gained my trust so I took one step and with that step a beam of light appeared, with my next step I entered a tunnel of darkness, with my third step I hesitated because something told me that if I took that next step that I'd never be able to go back, but a stronger voice told me to take the step so I went with my gut instinct and I took the step. I entered, with this lady, a huge openness of brightness and I felt absolutely wonderful, I felt like pain and suffering were endless miles away, I felt like everything was perfect and fantastic! I was truly, truly happy! Not because I was there or anything but just because I was. Happy.
We walked in this brightness for what seemed like forever, I knew in my head that in a few seconds I would be able to meet my father (who passed on when I was a child) and I was so so so absolutely excited and looking forward to seeing him... and then I woke up..... and I was devastated... but I noticed when I woke up that I was actually breathing funny like I had been in the dream even though seconds before I had woken up, I felt really peaceful.

I know some people might think oh blah blah it's only a dream etc etc...
I truly and whole heartedly feel that this was something absolutely greater than just a dream.. did I experience heaven?

And no. This isn't a troll. So no troll replies. Thank you.

    I have had dreams where I am out of body. I had a dream that I was sitting and talking to my only friend at the time In front of a stingray tank. The stingray swam out My friend swam out of the roof because we were like in air/water sort of.. I could breathe but I could also swim. then all of the doors and windows and such slammed closed one by one as I looked for a way out. The stingray kept saying "FIND ANOTHER WAY OUT" eventually I gave up and forced my way out of one of the windows. Later that week my friend stabbed me in the back "metephorically" I still believe that that dream told me that In life I would have to search and search for a way to finally fit in but eventually I would give up trying to fit in and then force myself to fit in in a way that I didn'truly fit in. because... thats exactly what I have done with my life. :(

        Fair enough, but presumably you care whether or not people can read your post? And therefore reply to it? That's up to you, of course.

        It's not about abstract English rules, it's about ease of comprehension and I know I'm not the only person on here who finds long posts with no paragraphs almost impossible to read. Sometimes I'll plough through them if I have spare time, but usually I can't do it. How do you go with them yourself? Just curious ....

    you just had an astral journey (astral projection or out of body experience) bro! congrats! i have been trying for years and no progress....look it up on google to make the next time enjoyable not terrifying.
    and also there is a 99% chance that you won't believe me but it's out of people's consciousness

        I know my opinion about dreams sweet JellyTots and I do not consider them real rather subconscious manipulations of your real-life thoughts and stresses.
