Teen on drugs almost dies but has NDE and learns a lot

Young woman overdoses and experiences unending, undying love, among other things
I was in rehab in California for my mental health issues. I had issues regulating my emotions and a hospital in Wyoming recommended me to a treatment center in California.

I didn't really want to die.

I'm so happy to finally tell a researcher this story. It took over a year to make sense of it. About a year afterwards, I burst into tears exclaiming, "I had to have been dead to meet up with Jesus!" It hadn't occurred to me I had died.
