In 18 years, I never experienced a trance state or anything similar. I definitely felt emotional when singing and worshiping, but I felt like I wasn't truly spirit-filled because I thought speaking in tongues should be an overpoweringly ecstatic experience. I remember feeling less spiritual, or less anointed, because I didn't really speak in tongues or get slain in the spirit. As my beliefs have changed and shifted over the years, I came up with many theories for speaking in tongues, one of them being possession by other spirits. Now that I don't believe in evil spirits, I think speaking in tongues is basically a mix of mass-psychosis/the emperor's new clothes.
