Cobb: Worst case scenario? When he wakes up, his mind is completely gone.
Saito: Cobb. I'll still honor the arrangement.
Cobb: I appreciate that, Saito, but when you wake up, you won't even remember that we had an arrangement. Limbo's gonna become your reality. You're gonna be lost down there so long that you're gonna become an old man.
Saito: Filled with regret.
Cobb: Waiting to die alone.
Saito: No. I'll come back. And we'll be young men together again.

Thank you for your reply and input......to be honest you are the first person who as ever expressed to me that they have any kind of idea of the experience i went through.People just usually reply by telling me it was just a dream while under the anaesthetic and although they don't say i suspect they think i am exaggerating about the length of time i perceived went by while in this "void" But when i say to people it felt like i was in this place for years it's not a figure of speech...that was MY reality.
This is a deep seated fear, because I HAVE been there. It's the same place this one demon would torment me in.. It would say the meanest things, and I would be there for days and days.. My own inner hell.

They thrive on people's fears to try and separate you from God. Don't listen to them. Unfortunately, it seems like they pick on children when there is family turmoil going on.

The mask went on and i felt myself "drifting" I snapped into feeling as what i perceived to be fully conscious. I was in a dark black void.There was nothing....I could see myself as if there was light shining on me or as if my body was lit up, but apart from that there was nothing but a dark void all around me.

I'm not quite sure if this would be the same thing?....from what I've read it's what is widely known as "laughing gas" and this isn't what i had. I was completely put to sleep by a general anaesthetic.Until the 90's in the UK, dentists could use a general anaesthetic...but after a number of deaths of children in a short space of time the practise was stopped.It as to be done in specialist dentists and hospitals now....
Sevoflurane gas in combination with nitrous oxide and oxygen is often used during general anesthesia followed by the use of isoflurane gas to maintain anesthesia during the procedure. In children sweet fruity scents are often used with the gases to inspire deep inhalation. Scents come in cherry, apple, bubblegum, watermelon, etc...
