It seems counter-intuitive that at our most exhausted we have 'astral' adventures. Is our spirituality dependent on fatigue?

Just recently, I have experienced a whooshing of air sound in my ears as I was falling asleep. I next vividly dreamed (or experienced) that I was flying. Not like normal, cause I have dreamed of flying before, this was effortlessly. Like my spirit was sharing this flying experience with me. I don't remember anything after that but awakened knowing that something special had happened.

'___' is fast and strong, you won't even move because of astonishment. The reason why you get so anxious on shrooms is because a trip lasts 6 hours while a '___' trip lasts 5 minutes.
Iv tryed salvia 4 times and I realy enjoy it, you are unable to move almost. And the weird thing is that immediatly after I took it and the trip commes, i forget that iv taken it which is very messy for the brain :p.
The reason why I state salvia is because it resembles '___'

Then a few weeks ago I had sleep paralysis for the first time. I was lying on my side under the sheets because it was cold, but my arm was sticking out the side. I was paralyzed but I could move my eyes. What happened next amazed me. This entity came through the ceiling of my room and grabbed hold of my exposed wrist with both it's hands, and start to "pull me out".
The odd thing about this was, I was under the sheets but I could see through the duvet and I saw this thing come into my room. I could make out a humanoid form - head, arms legs etc, but it looked kind of foggy or smokey. It had long blonde wavy hair and I instantly knew it was female, like I knew who it was! I fell asleep after being awake for about ten seconds, so I don't know what happened next.
Apparently sleep paralysis is a great time to exit the body. Maybe I was half out, because I could see this spirit?
Could this have been my "spirit guide" trying to pull my astral body out of my physical body, assisting me? It was only a couple of days previous to that, that I started studing astral projection. I am not 100% convinced that they exist because it sounds a bit cheesy, but what else could it have been? I had a strong feeling this thing was trying to help me.
