Panic and fear while self-inquiring

[joeye40]

Hello! I am new here, I do not know if there is already some posts about this

but during self-inquiry today I really started to realize that I really truly am not who I think I am and my heart was pounding racing, memories and feelings of my life progression and daily routine flashed before me very fast, It was very clear to me for about a minute that I have been so dumb all along thinking I know what I am. I felt VERY fearful and scared. I felt very cold and started breathing heavier and even cried for about 30 seconds. Although I do not feel as if I actually experienced being nothing, I guess I got a glimpse of it and it really scared the shit out of me? I really just don’t know what to think about this. I stay far away from claiming it was an enlightenment experience cause I don’t want to deceive myself. Anyone have a similar experience?

The first time for me was freaking beautiful and terrifying and the same time. Somtimes it has to be that way

It's never enough, go on and experience it more.
