Hello,
My name is Chris. I am 23 years old and live in the UK, I have been looking at your site and
found it very interesting. I have always been interested in anything paranormal since I was a kid, but it is only recently
in the last two years that all my thoughts are centered around the UFO and alien phenomenon.
Its almost taking over my life, I'm not working at the moment and all my mates and my family think
I'm going mad, even I'm starting to think I'm going mad.
I have seen a lot of strange things in my 23 years of existence, and I do have some similarities with
abductees, marks on my body when I wake up, sometimes missing time, the thought of being watched.
What do you think I should do?

Hey Chris,
Speaking of people whose life surrounds around the UFO and alien topic...you are writing to one right
now! I would welcome you to the club, but it's not an easy club to be a part of.
Let's see there's:
People's ridicule, endless hours of searching online for more answers, people's
ridicule, endless hours of trying to find like-minds, people's ridicule, coming to terms that you might have an alien connection,
people's ridicule, fruitless hours of trying to recall more details to strange occurrences in your life, people's ridicule,
contemplating if you are sane or not, people's feelings you are not sane either, and did I mention other people's ridicule?
There is so much that goes hand-in-hand in learning more on the UFO and alien phenomena's, only to
have someone always biting at your heels or laughing the whole while telling you that you are wasting your time! Little do
those people know that do that sort of thing, often times drives a person to look even harder into these topics, but on their
own.
We start keeping more to ourselves because of the cackles and snares people like to give us for being
involved in any manner in paranormal research. We get driven underground deeper and deeper, where your online connection and/or
UFO meeting group are your only friends.

Our friends/family that do this, do us more harm than good; and whether we allow that to happen or
not, it happens. This is the very reason why we need to not be fully shy to speak more openly about our experiences or curiosities.
I didn't ask my blonde, babbling friend to talk nonstop about how her and her boyfriend were arguing the other day...but I
still hear about it. Well, if you are willing to listen to the concerns and experiences of others, then why and the heck can't
they show a little more care and listen to you?
If you get someone to bounce ideas off, that is outside of the paranormal community, you'll feel more
normal. Yeah, that "normal person" might laugh a little here and there and not believe a whole lot you are saying. That's
where you need to be more understanding that this topic is really a hard one to swallow as being an actual reality.
So I suggest that you learn to laugh a little bit about the topic, let your friend or family member
express their doubts so you can hear them out. It doesn't hurt that they share their opinion, as long as you know the truth
and they allow you to express yourself as well.
So I say, back away from reading all of the books and websites that you can on this subject and let
your friends/family come back into your life a little. If they really care about your well-being, they will be there and allow
you to vent a little. If you don't get it out of your system in today's world, you will slip more into the paranormal world.
I understand that drive to find more answers, but too much of anything isn't good if there's no balance
to it. So re-claim your life, watch a movie, play some video games, grab a beer, and still find the answers you feel you need,
but with a smile on your face. You'll be surprised how much a smile and some laughter can bring to this serious topic that
so many refuse to take seriously.
One of my goals for doing what I do, is to bring talk on this subject out of the closet so it can be
spoken of frankly and openly. If we all do our part to be more forthcoming, I don't think we will have to obsess privately
like it is some kind of cult or taboo to speak of aliens.
We'll get there someday, I'll do my part over here in the US and you do yours in the UK-- then maybe
we can meet up somewhere in the middle to cover the ground that's needed to get people to relax a little! Cool?
I wish you the best, and please keep me posted on how you are doing.
Heidi
