Being in a coma and experiencing unusual things is one of the scariest experiences.
People who have gone into a coma have different stories to tell as some met their dead relatives while others just felt emptiness and darkness.
Here are the 10 stories of people who shared the things that surprised them the most while being in a coma:

3. @cheezemeister_x shared: ‘’About 20 years ago, my cousin had a severe head injury from a fall. He was in a coma for almost 4 weeks. When he woke up, he fairly quickly discovered that his memory was eidetic. He could repeat entire conversations back word for word, and even tell you the date and time you said something. Also, he could memorize images with just a few seconds glance. His memory is still eidetic today.’’

5. @Binxgamesandguitar shared: ‘’My boyfriend’s mother was in a coma for about 30 days because of a heart condition caused by diet pills. Before she woke up, she was an avid smoker, almost a pack a day. But when she finally did wake up, she was shocked to know that she was a smoker. Basically said “I used to smoke??” And then never did again. Definitely for the best.’’

All he could speak was the Choctaw language.point 37 | He had learned it when he was a kid, because his family lived right near a Choctaw reserve, and he played with a lot of those kids.point 142 | He spoke it fluently at that time, but forgot it over his life.point 193 | This went on for around 10 days, and then he woke up from a night’s sleep and could suddenly speak only English again, not remembering a word of Choctaw.point 320 |

10. @meccadeadly shared: ‘’My nephew was in a medically induced coma for over 3 months. During that time, he had lost about 30% of his body weight, as his muscles atrophied. His first remark upon seeing himself for the first time was “Did you forget to feed me?” which was incredibly hard to hear since his family had sat crying at his bedside every moment he was unconscious.’’
