APed w/fiction character?

This happened months back, but as it doesn't happen as often now, I am curious and a bit worried.

I was new to this graphic novel, and while I was researching characters, I came upon this character that was new to me, and I immediately became interested in that character.

Eventually after learning more about the character, I began to repeatedly have dreams of that character on a weekly basis, majority of the dreams I would wake up immediately after seeing the character, but many of the dreams I was actually be with in it with the character, not much interaction but more of staring/looking at each other.

I sorta grew a fear of seeing the character manifest in real life. There was also a time where I thought to see the arm of the fictional character, and possibly the outlines of the character's body.

The dreams along with the "hallucinations" did affect me in which I ended up going to sleep later at night. Another thing to note is that all these events occurred in my room. Ultimately though, now I am not very afraid of the character anymore, and I beleve that I have made a deep understanding of the character.

Were these incidents a case of Astral Projection, or something of the sort? And I would also love to contact the fictional character again, so I was wondering how since it doesn't happen as often.

I honestly think that I have connected to the character in a sense as well, but I do think of the character as a child.

I believe that this "character" is just a manifestation of you're imagination. I doubt that those incidents were part of astral projection.

@luckydragon: Well do you think that it is possible that I could meet the real Astral version of the character, since I have seen posts on this site and others about other realms, even fictional that you could reach with Astral Projection.

It seems to me that you are obsessed with this fictional character. You are dreaming of them and now fixated on the idea that you are going to encounter them. FICTIONAL..that means not real, make believe, does not exist. You need to move on and not let an obsession with a fictional character dominate your mind and your time. Try doing things to keep yourself busy, work on hobbies, get a job, fix up and clean things around your house. Go on a hike, or take a walk in the park depending on your location. Just let it go, get rid of the book, stop daydreaming about it, and find a useful and productive way to spend your time.

I suppose you may create your version of the character on the astral plane, but as said above, you should move past this obsession.
