I think all people who believe they were adbucted by aliens should go and discuss it with a good psychiatrist, because it is more likely that all of you may have been molested by one of your relatives or someone close to you. I am not saying this to hurt anyones feelings, but to help people uncover the thruth so they may heal.
I have read many stories of people being abducted by aliens. Many of them involve touching and probing of sensitive areas of the body. Some start out as someone standing at the edge or side of the bed watching the potential abductee. All of this struck me as being similar to sexual abuse and so I beagan to wonder if Alien Abduction is just a story made up by the brain to deal with the fact that the person was molested.
I believe it would make it easier to deal with. Say if someone you loved was coming into your room at night and molesting you, wouldnt it be easier for you and your brain to handle it if you could frame it as some far off alien. That would make them non-human and distant and these ideas could better enable you to deal with it psychologically.
Say you lived with that person or they were a close relative and you had to see them everyday, see how it would make it easier to attribute it to Aliens or Ghosts or whatever than to attribute it to your older brother, your uncle, your dad, a friend of the family, etc...
Here are some links to show that other people may believe this is at least partially true.
Harvard Gazette
Wikipedia
I believe it could be possible that all Alien Abuductees were victims of molestation as a child. Could it be they were just victims of a pedophillic relative or could it be that Aliens are pedophiles and they get their kicks from watching kids sleep, or "probing" them as they lay in some drugged or dream state?
What do you think?

Joe Nickell, a columnist for Skeptical Inquirer magazine, noted that “Since 1994 alleged implants have been surgically recovered but they’ve become remarkably diverse: one looks like a shard of glass, another a triangular piece of metal, still another a carbon fiber, and so on. None was located in the brain or nasal cavity, instead being recovered from such extremities as toe, hand, shin, external ear, etc.; some were accompanied by scars while others were not. As physicians know, a foreign object can enter the body unnoticed, as during a fall, or while running barefoot in sand or grass—even as a splinter from a larger impacting object.” People find all sorts of weird things in their bodies, but so far none are of alien origin.
I've also seen x-rays of my skull before that showed objects in the back like marbles....yeah, marbles.
I recalled having said I was glad I hadn't lost them yet.

Now why would that be. I am sure scienctists would love to analyze a real alien implant. I think that sometimes humans will twist the facts to hold onto their incorrect believes.

I take it from your posts that you have been abducted by aliens. Have you ever been probed, and if so why do you think they would probe you?
