i have survived near death experiences. Have you ever experienced this?
No, I have never experienced a near death experience. Some people find them to be transcendental or indications of an afterlife.
I am mostly just traumatized by water now. I almost drowned. 
According to neuroscience research it is suggested that NDEs is a subjective phenomenon that results from disturbed bodily multisensory integration. It must have been quite an ordeal for you to almost drown.
Wow, that's interesting. Do you know if the feeling of the experience ever goes away?
I am unsure but , these experiences encompass many feelings such as detachment from your body, feeling like you are levitating, serenity, warmth and of course light.
