My husband has a drinking problem. He has for a long time. It runs in his family. He did the normal partying as a teenager, he's always drank beers and other things at home, we go out every once in a while, and he drinks Vodka (mixed with something) every single day, sometimes starting at 10 in the morning. Sometimes later in the afternoon, but it's every day. I know he's had a few drinks today, but doesn't seem out of the ordinary. I am so worried about him.

I really do feel sorry for your situation. It seems like he really needs to see someone. . BUT your train of thought and actions seem a little odd. Excuse me for my skepticism, but we have been duped by stories before. . .

I don't know how old your husband is but he may be going through the so called "mid-life crisis." The whole event is usually typified by feelings of "not-belonging", "boredom" with the mundane and intense depression. So, his feeling like an alien may just be metaphor for what is actually going on. The alcohol certainly dosen't help the problem. I would suggest trying to help him see that he needs to talk to someone - someone he dosen't rely on for emotional/psychic support (you.) He'd hopefully feel less threatened. If he feels like persuing his feelings of being an alien i'd certainly contact a therapist who works with contactees.
Wish you the best through this trying time.

this is the problem right there. He's an alcoholic.
Get him professional help immediately.

Perhaps...but a marital counselor will give one spouse more ammunition if the other spouse isn't being reasonable.

I agree with some of the others. Sounds like he needs professional help, not a conspiracy message board. I dont think there is any real conspiracy here...he just needs help.
Im curious. This is your first post here.....how did you come to find this site to post this?
Anyways, best of luck to him.......and you. I hope he gets the help he needs!
