Some kind of purgatory

Date: 6/26/2019

I was on the brink of death, and I went to another dimension, an alternate reality where I saw people I knew from this life but they were slightly altered versions of themselves. It was like some sick sort of game, where they were stuck in that dimension because they had been duped by others that they recognized, and their revenge on any newcomers was to trick them into staying there with them. They almost got me, but every time I started to believe that I was in the same reality I came from, they would glitch or something and I would realize it wasn't true and I wouldn't fall for it. I was trying to find somewhere to be alone, when I saw a man I know in real life sitting at a table off to the side of a room. I knew immediately that he was his original version, and I said who let you in? And he said, I'm always on the brink of death, look! And he pointed to his prosthetic leg, which he has in real life.
