Were You Asleep On September 11th Two Thousand and One

I am 48 and I had two small children...shortly after 9 .11 I went through a devastating divorce.

Yes,when the first one hit, got woke up by the ex inlaws..I was a bartender at the time

Same here. Well I was in 8th grade. All we did that day was watch live coverage.

Thanks for the Bump,

Agents of the Law,

Thread: Been thinking about 911 a lot lately. Please tell us about your experience of first being told of the event. Would love to hear you story.

This thread is proving fruitful on a number of levels.

The most apparent is there are myriad (yet ineffective) elements at work aiming to derail the thread by constant bating and derision.
Certain "entities" have gone so far as to set up a wholly new thread to steer traffic away from the content this thread contains.

Without going into too much detail, another aspect that is being revealed is that most posters (and generally, most visitors to his site) while believing themselves to be "awake," are grossly mistaken and only possess a slightly more informed "data base".

As Socrates (Plato) would have said, "they're only capable of operating out of opinion which they pile on top of belief; possessing neither true knowledge nor the awareness that what little knowledge they do possess they should endeavor to hold lightly, lest what they take to be Wisdom be mistaken for the horrible deformity it truly is."

We shall post more information when the requisite conditions are sufficiently energized; if that ever occurs.

The discerning will see the thread running through the threads.

I was asleep. In bed with my partner, in my parent's home. Mom was awake watching the news.

I also experienced a terrible end to 2014 and start to 2015 in that I felt my relationship with my father fell apart. I actually felt like he was not the father I knew.

Did you feel like he, or you, was [becoming, had become] a different person?

Has anything "settled" back down since then, or do you find yourself on the same new, "timeline"?

No for at least the pentagon "plane", the other ones I think I was awake for one (in college). Should put quotes for college. I was in DC by the way.

Long story short...I remember Berenstein. I feel at times extremely sad that I miss my partner and actually have the thought or fear he is dead, but we've never been happier really. Meaning how can I miss him when we are never apart. The same "imposter" feeling. With my dad, we're fine, but he's remarried and moved across the country. His life with me is done at least I felt at first.

More to the point: do you feel like you are a different person?

I do not feel that way. I am more aware of who I am, but remain the same person I have always been.

I was asleep on the west coast, then my bestie called me at 0730pdt and told me someone had bombed the Pentagon and she thinks it was a terrorist attack.

Yes, I was sound asleep when it happened. Three people called leaving frantic messages, warning me to get out of the high rise I was living in, that we were under attack. I slept through the 1st two phone messages, did not even hear them, and awoke to hear the third message and then turned on the TV to see a replay of the 2nd plane hitting the tower.

I was 43 at the time, and had been recently laid off, that is why I was home. The day before, 9/10 had been a wonderful day, and I went to bed that night feeling very happy. And when I awoke with a start on 9/11- it's like I awoke into a living nightmare, and into an entirely different world- and nothing has been the same since.

Of the three that called me, none are really what I would consider 'awake', although one is more open to alternate reality than the other two, but they try hard to not be.

Please share what this means to you- why you are asking?

A caterpillar is supposed to become a butterfly.

The butterfly has no memory of its former life and appetites prior to its chrysalis phase.

Just as the larva has no awareness of its soon to be state as the caterpillar.

What would you say has been the prime motivating force in your life since that day? What are you most "into".

Thank you for the well-considered message. Most responses are pre-programmed instantiations of inconscious non-replies; both of the human, and the AI kind.

I was asleep and awakened by a call from my kids at college. Told my child to grab their sibling at stay together. Spouse was in the air on a flight.

I was awake.
I turned on the car radio and heard. We were silent untilbo heard that all the planes were grounded. Inaaod nothing more will happen. Whoever did this is spent. Its safe to work on the federal building but expect security to be jumpy
You won't get any work done there doe a few days..

O think o began to think it was a false flag or at east peculiar enrn I realised it was the same guy so did Tanzania and Kenya years before, and when I realised the Pentagon was hit after the towers. I think I thoughtbthe pentagon was a false flag to make it appear the attacks on the twin towers were attacks on the US and not on international trade or globalism. When i realised we were going after Saddam I knew it was all a trick.

Sometimes I forget it ever happened.

Was asleep. West coast. Woke suddenly with a sharp pain in my neck and shoulder. After laying there trying to stretch it out, I turned on the tele and saw some frantic coverage, still groggy and wondering what was going on... not too long after, the second plane hit.

I had just turned 30 the previous week. I was divorced with one child and I owned a successful business.

Yes. I was a 24 year old stay at home army wife at the time. We lived on ft Polk, Louisiana which is an hour behind NYC. I was taking my then 2 year old to a birthday party that started at noon and I guess I had my akarm clock set for 9:30-10am. My daughter and I always slept late and my husband was an E8 (14 years older than me, that's why I was 24 and married to an E8) at the time and worked shifts where he was gone for several nights at a time for two week on/two weeks off. He was working when 9/11 happened and I wasn't able to get ahold of him right away.

Anyway, I usually set my alarm clock to buzz but that morning it was set to the radio for some reason. When the akarm went off rather than music it was a man talking and he said a portion of the pentagon had collapsed. I thought it was odd but remembered that they were remodeling it so o thought maybe that's what was going on. Something didn't feel right though so I got up and turned on the tv in the bedroom (something I never did) and I was like holy shit, what country is that??? Then I realized it was NYC.

I'm not sure if I saw the second tower collapse in real time or if it was a replay but my gut reaction was that it looked like a controlled demoliation. I had seen them demolish so casino in Vegas on a show in the discovery channel I think it was and that is exactly what it looked like to me when that tower fell.

When my husband was finally able to call home that night I told him that it looked like a controlled demoliation. That initial reaction never left me. Then years after the fact I heard others saying it was a controlled demoliation. I didn't think they were crazy since that's whst my first reaction was when I saw it happen.

Please reveal the motivation for the creation of this thread.

After 9/11, I no longer believe most of what I see on TV or what I read in the mainstream press, and see it instead as programming/mind control, meant to either disempower or distract me.

I would say a prime motivating force since then has been to 1.) figure out why I am here 2.) figure out what is the nature of this reality, etc

I read a lot here, and in particular, follow the posts regarding timeline shifts and time slip anomalies. And 11:11. Like many here, I see the repeating numbers constantly.

I was at work at a stiff office. We had teevees and saw it all go down. At the end of the day, a really good artist did some light impression of muslims on a whiteboard. He was fired the next day. The programming of the sheep had happened before 911.

Being on the west coast, I was asleep for both planes hitting. Wasn't aware of what happened till I got to school.

back in 2001, there was a radioshow at night called loveline on q101 for u chicago folks..

i listened to that everynight. and my radio ran all night throughout my sleep

my dreams the morning of 9/11 with the radio still on were rotating around planes and shit like that. very strange dreams considering i smoked weed at the time and we all know that that makes u dream less... or at least for me

well sure enough, mancow muller (a radio personality) for his morning show was talking about military planes hitting some building in new york

i figured it was coincidence and i went downstairs to make my breakfast as it was "late arrival" day (freshman highschool) and i didnt have to be in school till 1030 instead of 9.

i was asleep for the 1st plane....

well sure enough i turn on the tv to check abc news morning style like a good boy and i see the insanity on my tv.

i also remember a dude on abc 7... a well known guy... aka "THE GUY" for the news shit said in passing "it looks like a controlled demolition"

he died a while back somehow



but yea i was asleep the 1st plane. not sure about the rest. saw the buildings start to shake and though to my 15 year old self "holy shit they are going to collapse" i also thought to myself "holy shit, something is not right"


conspiracy theorist ever since

I was working late in those days, so the clock radio alarm went off about the same time the first plane hit. I kept it on cbs 880 news, so heard right away and turned on CNN. I saw the second plane hit live.

My first thought was how the ATC system got so screwed up that they were directing planes into the city; or how the planes' guidance systems were getting messed up to make it happen. It was so surreal that I guess I didn't process it right away, Plus, I was tired and hungover, so that may have had something to do with it.

I immediately started calling my friends that worked in the city to see if they were alright. I had one, actually, that had an interview in the towers that morning, but it turned out to have been cancelled.

I watched the news for the next few hours, listening to them say about planes crashing all over. The Capitol building, the Mall in DC, I think there were others too. There were so many reported that then turned out to be rumors that I wonder now if they had had others planned that either didn't go as planned or were backups in case these didn't work.

The strangest thing was that on the way to work, I three guys walking along Route 1 in Greenwich, CT with big black beards, camouflage fatigues on, and long white overshirts and head wrap things. I remember this distinctly, and also thinking "who the hell are those guys? They'll get killed looking like that today."

Yes i was at school and for some reason i said to myself fuck it im going home and tell my parents that i didnt had classes the afternoon when ibarrived home i look at the tv and see the 2plane hit the towers my jaw dropped....i had 13or 14 years old at the time

I woke before my alarm, not understanding what I might have heard, or maybe felt. I threw on clothes and went to wash up when I hear my husband yelling Holy Fuck! Holy Shit! over and over. I rush downstairs.

Both he and my eldest were glued to the tv watching NY1, while he tells me a plane just hit the WTC. A few minutes later we see the second plane hit--followed by the shockwave hitting the East Wall of our house, rattling us.

That's when I realized what had woken me up, as my bedroom's also on that wall.

At that point we scurried to get to the car, and drove less than a half mile to the promenade on our Staten Island shoreline, which drectly faced the burning towers. Only two other people had yet to gather...except for a Blackhawk hovering over the shipping channel a few blocks away to the west, close to my house.

There's more, if you're interested.

Oh...and we heard the transmission of the female air traffic controller asking, if I remember correctly, 'This is real time?' somewhat unnerved.
