no because our atmosphere is completely foreign to the one they come out of, they would have to be completely airtight enclosed. And besides the beings on other planets certainly don't wanna make friends with the current civilization...

Why is it that the very first thing Humans say to something like this is: you need to get professional help. meaning a psychologist...
Because people who think they are half-alien most likely have a psychological issue.
It's not rocket surgery.
Sorry man...being ET of half ET simply isn't a psychological issue...it is BIOLOGY plain and simple.
You can throw all the psychology at it you want, you still won't change the BIOLOGICAL facts. Further, absolutely no Psychologist in his right mind should get anywhere close to a case like this without first answering the biology question.
Why is it that amateur psychologists, or those who might fancy themselves as one, always go that route when confronted by ET? It would seem to lack a certain LOGIC. Where on Earth did you find a good enough metric to simply decide without benefit of biological testing that those who think themselves ET, "most likely" have a psychological issue?
Course the reality there is the IF One is ET then they probably have some other related psychology issues, just not the ones you are considering...
And; NO it's not "rocket surgery", course then again, I wouldn't go at a Rocket with a small knife. I would tend to use proper tools...but, then, I'm an Engineer...
Again I'll say it... up until the 20th century, many people thought that the majority of mental illness was a form of demonic possession.
You are being just as ignorant with your notion of half-alien hybrids.

Don't know what you're on about, but; I was trying to disassociate being ET or half ET from any sort of psychology...you see, it doesn't matter what the psychological state is, being ET is a biological issue, and One simply can not address the psychological issues of such a person without first determining IF that person is, in any part extraterrestrial.
So...basically, I don't care about your "mental illness" angle, its BS!

Thank you for those who have given me support. Tomorrow I'll be meeting a therapist that may offer some neurological help and testing for me.

What I'm "on about" is how outdated it is to associate mental illness with an outside influence like demons or aliens.
You're calling it a biological issue because you BELIEVE that it's true. Just like the folks BELIEVED that demons were the cause of mental illness up until the 20th century.
Just because you believe it doesn't make it true. The fact that you're defending it shows how truly delusional you are and it does not help Mirror get the help she needs. If someone posted a thread claiming to be half unicorn would you recommend that they go to a veterinarian for help because a normal doctor won't be able to help them?

Sorry man but it is psychological, you replied to these words posted by answer "people who think they are half-alien"
How is "thought" biological and not psychological?
Sorry but I didn't see any DNA evidence supplied to present ET, only a claim, a thought of being half alien.
When were readers of this thread confronted by ET in a biological sense and not psychological?

You have completely misunderstood everything I'm trying to say!
Firstly; YOU are the one assuming "mental illness"; sure hope you are a professional, otherwise you are practicing medicine without a license. That is not a call someone on a site like this can make...period. So let us just drop the mental illness nonsense! At least for now...
Secondly; what I'm trying to say is that it has not been determined IF Mirror, or indeed anyone, is Human or not. You are simply assuming that she is, and that the ET talk is a manifestation of "mental illness". You are doing this without benefit of any data whatsoever!
So, this is not about belief, it is about biology, it is not about mental illness and psychology, IT IS ABOUT BIOLOGY. And there is no delusion except on your part; the delusion that; "if they look human, they are"...except that Humans are not unique to Earth, and there is a very real probability that someone could be partly or completely non-terrestrial in origin.
It should also be understood that a psychologist can not make the determination as to whether someone is ET or part ET...why? Because it not psychology...it's biology.
And then again; perhaps you, like many of your species, are simply not ready yet.

Oh I haven't misunderstood anything you've said. You are implying that she might actually be half-alien and that is completely, 100% ludicrous.
You pull out an idiotic statement like "practicing medicine without a license" in this thread? If someone comes to me claiming to be half-dolphin, I don't need a degree in marine biology to say with certainty that they have a psychological issue. This case is no different.
Regardless what you've deluded yourself into believing, human-alien hybrids do not exist. You are not helping anyone by supporting her mother's assertion that she's half-alien. You're clearly "not ready" to be allowed around the general public if you truly believe the insanity that is flowing from your keyboard.
The thought would seem more a question rather than a statement; thus removing it from the typical BS psychology employed here, and placing it where the question belongs...in biology.
You are wanting this to be a psychological issue simply because you aren't ready for reality.
And the reality is that it is rather probable that someone is not of Terrestrial origin, and of course you can not determine this through psychology.
I suspect, that when the OP is ready; they will explore their biology, maybe, they will find that they are as Terrestrial as you,
Sorry, but it would be you who is not ready...not ready for the reality of their own existence, not ready for the next step in Human evolution...not ready to accept the truth of themselves.
Some 8000 years ago or so...a group of non-terrestrials fund Earth, and attempted to establish colonies here.
You, all of y'all, seriously need t accept the FACT that you are not alone in the universe,
