I have, I think, and many times. What I mean is that sometimes I dream I
am someone or something I am not. And so if I am not myself, I would
include that as being "outside of my experience".

Among the wacky things I have done/been in my dreams, such as a baby dragon
named Marsha, a serial killer, a giant pale-blue spagetti noodle on
rollerskates (my friends were pink), a variety of inexplicable "life" forms
that were neither human or material, different animals, and several months
ago I had a very startling dream that I watched myself _being born_. The
thing is, I was brought here by c-section. My point is, I've 'experienced'
through dreams many things that I could not otherwise fanthom.
