Reading the self-defense forums made me fear what I could experience once APing. I've been very low for a while now (untreated depression, by untreated I mean I wont see the doctor ) and the way I understand it is .. if you go in with fear and anxiety you are bound to attract 'negative' experiences. I took a break from practise for this reason in particular.

I still read the posts on negs etc now but I dont get so uptight about it all now. I don't want it to hinder my progress and I feel if anything does 'crop up' when I get out and about, at least I'll have some knowledge of what may be happening. The very thought of the dweller on the threshold scared the pants off me for a while!

And.. back on topic the thing with the speakers I find interesting. I would definately be doing some experimentation with that. I also agree that it could be astral noise, when I get to that 'just on the edge of sleep' state I often hear people speaking in hushed voices or my name being spoken. Strange but not scary (anymore)
