Astral Projection? If you don't believe then don't bother answering?

Question

Personally I don't want to ever Astral project, this happen to me 3 times this month. I was asleep, I was dreaming of talking to on the bus, then my dreaming froze and then I was able to start to control my dreaming. The everything turned black(must have been my closed eyelids), then I tryed to wakeup but I felt paralyzed, sort of. I realized that i was sleep. Then I was i started to think of my self getting up, and I felf pressure of my hip or torse almost like something grabbing me, and I heard all kinds of weird noises, my fan was on but I can heard but it sounded different, I also was able to see the light through the crack of my door and the blinking time of my vcr through my closed eyelids. But i barely got out of my body a couple of inches. Its like my Mind was leaving my body. Here is the question:

Was that some type of astral projection?

But i want to hear from experienced Projectors

If you could see behind closed eyes, YES. You're lucky. Some people have a lot of trouble projecting! Unfortunately, you were probably stuck in your body because you were scared. You could do great things while in your spiritual body! You could visit any place in the universe, chat with other creatures you might see, fly, and not even have to breath! So... yeah. Astral Projection is pretty spectacular!
