Is this astral projection?

After reading some articles on erinpavlina.com I tried the going down 21 levels and the stair case approach. It's a way how to communicate to your higher self, check here http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2005/0 ... your-room/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
However for me those things never work because i always have problems focussing. When i would close the door, the door would on keep opening or something. When i would enter the elevator the doors would be closing on me and going back and forth, stuff like that. In the end i managed to do it and get myself into my room and imagined myself into a gp's room. Imaging my room to be a gp room was easier for me than decorating it and stuff like they described in the article. Then i said in myself that i wanted to talk to my higher self to ask a few questions. He responded but i'm almost 100% sure it was just myself. So said to myself relax, so i tried to relax and my focus went a bit better, less anxiety and stuff. Than i said i want to be able to talk to my higher self. Then something happened that has always frightened me.

It is like i'm falling within myself, i don't feel the weight of my body. It furthermore also feels like i'm very small being surrounded with space or something. I had this before, mostly when i'm trying to fall asleep. It always scared me so i always shoke it off. This time i just let it go. I heard myself saying to myself, try to relax. It's ok, nothing is gonna happen. Stuff like that. Then i kinda felt tickling on my arms and later also my legs. My heartbeat when up as well, probably to around 160-170. I could feel it going fast. This went on and on. So i thought this might be like an astral projection. I kept on saying to myself, just try to relax, nothing is gonna happen. Everybody is here, jesus, arcangel gabriel. I was thinking about gabriel because i read that is the person you should call when there are demons and bad entities and stuff. I'm scared as hell for that. And then i could really feel good entities around me, at least i think.... I instantly thought ok next time i'll go to bed i'll start praying first, something of which i never do. I suddenly wasn't scared of the ghosts and demons anymore as well.

I read on pavlinas website that you then have to stretch out your leg and then you're supposed to get out of your body. However when i tried that i was just stretching my own legs. Then i also started to get a headache, probably because of the heavy heart beating, and the feeling subsided a bit. I then stopped it fully because it wasn't working. Afterwards i felt like pretty scared that there might be ghosts anywhere, i couldn't sleep for hours.

Was this really related to astral projection and what went wrong? And how to be not afraid that there might be ghosts and bad spirits out there? And that they will not be haunting you later when you wake up?

I don't know, but going by what I have learned I would say this: It depends on what you truly believe (including your SM level) about what it is.
