I was taken from my bed in the middle of the night. (Abductee feedback much appreciated)

I have read many abductee stories. This one perfectly fits the bill. I find it particularly interesting that you encountered the tall greys. There are a few different variations of them. All of them seem to be able to gain control over our nervous system.

I am curious- did your nerve issues that you had improve at all after this most recent abduction, or stay the same. I think in some cases they intervene and help, while other times they are merely studying you. I have a book at home, called Real Alien Worlds: A Brief Encyclopedia, by David McCready. This was a two year long conscious astral travel exploration project, and he documented the species his team encountered. They only concerned themselves with aliens that were more advanced than us, and the greys were in the book. When I go home tonight I am going to read through the tall greys chapter and transcribe anything relevant for you. I really do recommend reading this book if you want to know more, or maybe you don't because of what you've been through.

I am sorry you had these experiences. For most people they seem to be terrifying to their very core. One thing mentioned in the book, is that the greys find it perplexing as to why we get so scared and startled by everything. Maybe they don't recognize fear very well and that is why they seem to emotionless and flat? I am a scientist by profession, and while some people might be lying, in general I find these accounts to be very reliable and true. Scientifically speaking, we did not even know that mountain gorillas existed until 1902, and that is on our own planet. I am not sure why people think we know everything, when we clearly don't. Of course there are other life forms existing in other galaxies and dimensions. You don't sound crazy, and I believe you. I will get back to you with the other info, but feel free to PM me anytime. I am more than happy to discuss and share any knowledge that I have.

I believe you. Thank you for sharing and I hope that your are able to get past this experience.

I don’t have anything personal to add, but I suggest getting in touch with Mike Clelland. He has a blog at hiddenexpereience.blogspot.com. He also did a podcast for years called Hidden Experience that should be linked there. He’s a really grounded experiencer. He’s also on Facebook a lot, but I don’t do Facebook myself.

My other suggestion is to get in touch with the folks from Where Did the Road Go. They look at all sorts of strange things with a really nuanced view.

Try to say true to yourself. You’re going to get all sorts of replies saying everything from sleep paralysis, ETs, to military abduction, to it’s all demons!!! Remember to take everyone’s feedback with salt. Just keep breathing and reaching out. All the best.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I would really like to know if you find anything that helps you find solace. I cannot imagine what it would be like have such vivid memories of your abduction. I do not know if I was ever abducted, but I do know that I've always been fascinated in the idea of extraterrestrials and loved reading through seemingly credible reports of sightings and/or contact with an alien life forms since I was a kid. I've seen orange lights in the sky on two occasions that could not be explained by publicly acknowledged aircraft. Fun!

Then I listened to the hypnotherapy sessions with Barney Hill. There is a point where he becomes hysterical when he describes seeing their eyes. Something snapped. I shut off my podcast, had trouble sleeping for a couple of nights. I got drunk that weekend and just completely broke down. As I explained to my girlfriend that I didn't know what was wrong, but I know what triggered it, the shaking started. The most violent tremors I've ever experienced in my life. And it lasted hours. Hours of just weeping and violently shaking. I don't have the insatiable desire to learn about aliens anymore. I always thought I'd wanted contact with ETs, intrigued with hypnotherapy as a tool to uncover obscured memories of encounters. Fuck that. I would never do it. The terror and powerlessness that I felt when I lost it, and still get a taste of recalling it... (I shake mildly, almost painful goosebumps, and tears just start streaming, as they are now).

If you are willing to do hypnotherapy, more power to you, but I would definitely take that decision deathly serious. I don't know what the fuck happened to me, and I don't want to. But it's been a couple years since my breakdown, and now as I write this, I realize a part of me is still curious... I don't know. It's so disheartening to see that the loudest fixtures in the UFO community are clearly mentally ill or plain charlatans. And that's what everyone associates with it. I don't want to be associated with that and just immediately dismissed by the world because of it. And I feel there is a crossroads where one must decide if they just want to bury their experience(s) and live their life, or devote much, if not all, of their life to getting to the bottom to something that there is no bottom to.

I don't know man. I know I still don't have an answer to the question that has been bouncing around in the back of my head since I saw my first UFO that I couldn't explain away: Now what? I try to take a stoic approach and just worry about what I can control. It has worked moderately okay with the passage of time.

Also if you didn't already realize this, it is commonly reported that abductees cause lights to burn out when in close proximity. There's a term for it that escapes me, but Google has your answers. I'm really sorry this happened to you, and I hope it never happens again.

This is a crazy ass story. You know I've had some really weird experiences I can't explain but could be labeled as extraterrestrial, but there was this one time (I'm a huge horror movie fan and nothing ever creeps me out enough. Like ever.) I was in my government class my senior year and the previous night I saw a very bright green/blue light, it completely lit up my room and was accompanied by a humming noise that vibrated me. But it only lasted maybe a few seconds then it was gone. My sister and grandmother saw the light too and heard the humming but didn't feel it like me. It was also very overcast that night and I looked outside almost seconds after the incident and there was like a cutout in the clouds. But anyway we were watching the fourth kind in my government class that day and I literally got so disturbed by it that I had to step out. Which is very extreme for me to feel that way especially from a movie. My teacher followed and asked what was going on and I told him about my incident and he was so interested lol. But sorry for the damn novel I wrote but I thought it was just so damn weird of me to freak out over a movie that I've already seen once at that point and no movies bother me ever. Not even a little bit. But that day it turned me into a little bitch. I have no idea why it was just some light and humming with little vibrations.

My father believed he'd been abducted by aliens, and therefore I have been familiar with and interested in the subject of abduction for as long as I can remember.

At first I was terrified of aliens and worried I would also be abducted, but as time went on and I did more and more research I began to stop worrying about it and actually sort of hope for it. One of the reasons for this was my father's disposition towards it - he wasn't afraid of aliens or the subject of abduction at all, and in fact believed the beings are benevolent, at least the 'Greys'. Regarding the insectoids, nordics and reptilians I don't think he had an opinion.

My impression, stemming from almost 40 years of seeking out witness testimony and abductee accounts, is that we are being studied and tested in a way not unlike human scientists' treatment of wild animals. We 'abduct', sedate, and run myriad tests on all the animals on earth in order to better understand them, for our own benefit and also for the sake of conservation and health for these species. Without this work, we would not be able to treat their populations when they become ill, or recognize when a species is threatened by extinction.

I can't be sure that their work is benevolent, but my definite impression of abduction is similar to and no more malicious than the trap, tag and release scenarios humans perpetrate every day. I can only imagine that such a scenario is as terrifying for the animal as it is for a human abductee.

If it helps, I also have an implanted neurostimulator and have never had any lightbulb issues.

Yes, yes, and fucking yes!!! So much of what you say lines up with my experiences. Especially when you said there didn't look to be any emotion in its eyes. Almost robotic. I can't wait for my fiancé to get home so I can read this to him. He the only one I think has ever really believed my experiences. Not that I've told a lot of people.

My experiences started when I was around 4 or 5 before I started kindergarten. I was looking out the window and saw what looked like a shiny white light hovering above the building across the street, centered on me. It did the typical swinging slowly to the right, then zooming away to the left that we see in movies. I learned how to read before kindergarten and was very advance and aware for a child. After that, I had several wild experiences that I have been meaning to post for a long while. My blood type is O-. Some of the literature on abductions states this blood type tends to have more abductions. The last time I experienced anything was in 2010 when I was 30. I woke up to some crazy sleep paralysis where I felt I was being choked and slowly moved by my throat while hearing growling. I was wide awake, not dreaming. My body was almost pulled from the bed by my hair when I was 12 and I was pulled to the foot of bed when I was 13, all during sleep paralysis.

I have so much to say about your experiences. I'm reading it again before I do. Thank you for being brave enough to post. I feel you are sincere in what you wrote. Something crazy is going on out there that has nothing to do with reality as we know it.

In one abduction experience when I was around 9, I was in bed next to my grandmother in Queens,NY. I woke up to a small, childlike looking grey hovering over the foot of my bed. It had a smile on its face, but I did not get friendly vibes. It was an unmoving smile, as if on a robots face. It was clearly gesturing for me to follow it. As I was thinking I can't fly, I found myself floating upwards, then THROUGH the window fan towards a giant ship hovering high above the street. I see a larger, thinner, more serious looking grey at an entrance on the side of the ship. Once inside, I can't tell if I'm looking at a flat screen, or a giant window. There are others, but my eyes are glued to the screen. It looks like we were flying over a city in India with similar, almost Arabic writing on the signs. Next thing I know I am at the base of an mountain observatory. I see many excited and happy looking faces on the people climbing up. My next memory was of being in a snowy region in front of a row of trailers. I see military in white camo with white weapons around the perimeter. I notice several children holding hands with greys and walking to and from these trailers. I look to my left and I am holding hands with one as well. He telepathically tells me to keep this place a secret. That is the end of my memory. When I woke up the next day, I didn't have the foresight to look at my body. I did remember everything I just wrote and told my grandmother. She believed me and always told me how unusual I was.

My earliest memories are of a bitter homesick feeling in the pit of my stomach that still comes back from time to time. I am very introverted, bookish, and have always had trouble interacting with people. I used to blow out lightbulbs with regularity until my mid 20s. I'm not sure what I have done to make it stop. I do remember having a spike in my early 20s when I got pregnant. I lost the baby. This is how I found out I was O-. It was another decade until I read that blood type could be significant. I hope to try hypnotic regression as well one day. Please forgive the essay.

I want to believe.

Have either of your parents been abducted or seen the same beings when they were younger?

If you are looking for help with triggers you can try EMDR - it's helped increase my manageability of PTSD symptoms.

It's not a talk based therapy.

Wow. I am fascinated by reports of aliens and ufonauts, as well as their connections with folklore and ancient mythology. Obviously that field isn't relevant here, but I would like to point out some of the similarities between your report and those of others. I used to be a closed-minded scientific skeptic or debunker, but then I had a UFO experience of my own, and was alerted to the presence of things that science cannot explain. Here are some cases from 'Passport to Magonia' and 'The Inhumanoids' that feature aliens holding weapons that are very similar to the remote-shaped device that you say your abductors pointed at you. I am particularly interested by the similarities that strange beings have with each other, especially in the equipment that they carry and their appearance.

1. Nouatre, France, on September 30, 1954. About 4: 30 P.M. Georges Gatay, head of a team of eight construction workers, found himself walking away from the others. He felt a “peculiar drowsiness” and suddenly wondered where he was going. Then, without warning, he faced the strangest apparition. Less than thirty feet away, above him on the slope, was a man. His head was covered by an opaque glass helmet with a visor coming down to his chest. He wore gray coveralls and short boots. In his hand he held an elongated object: “It could have been a pistol, or it could have been a metal rod.” On his chest was a light projector.
2. In Jalapa, Mexico, early in September 1965, a hovering object was seen with luminous slits in its circumference and a black-clad being, with eyes gleaming like cat’s eyes, holding a shining metal rod. The entity vanished suddenly while under observation in a Jalapa street by a local reporter, two taxi drivers, and a bullfighter.
3. In the Carazinho, Brazil, case of July 26, 1965, five dwarfs dressed in dark uniforms and small boots were seen. We are told that “one of them had in his right hand a brilliantly luminous object like a wand.”
4. Let us now return to the fions, the dwarfish race that accompanies the korrigans, the fairies of Brittany. They are seen only at twilight or at night. Some carry a torch like a Welsh death candle.
5. October 20, 1954, in Parravici d’Erba, near Como, Italy, a man had just put his car in the garage when he saw a strange being, covered with a luminous suit, about four feet tall, standing near a tree. When he saw the motorist, the creature aimed a beam from some sort of flashlight at him, paralyzing the witness until a motion he made when clenching the fist holding the garage keys seemed to free him. He rushed to attack the stranger, who rose from the ground and fled with a soft whirring sound.
6. October 9. Four children living in Pournoy-la-Chetive, Moselle, reported that at about 6: 30 P.M., as they were roller-skating, they suddenly saw something luminous near the cemetery: It was a round machine, about 2.5 meters in diameter, which was standing on three legs. Soon a man came out. He was holding a lighted flashlight in his hand and it blinded us. But we could see that he had large eyes, a face covered with hair and that he was very small, about four feet tall.
7. Branch Hill, Ohio one early morning in March of 1955. At about 4: 00 a.m. businessman Robert Hunnicutt was driving and sighted three strange humanoids as they knelt by the side of the road. He later described them as about 3 feet-tall with slender arms, “frog faces” with normal, human eyes without eye-brows. They held dark objects in their hands which emitted blue flashes. Intrigued, Hunnicutt pulled over to investigate. The next thing he knew, he said, he was driving towards the local police station with no memory at all of anything after he’d pulled over. The entities were wearing gray-colored, tight-fitting clothes, he further recalled, with the exposed skin also being gray.

So... first of all I just want to say I'm so sorry. I'm sorry that happened to you, I'm sorry the mufon people weren't more helpful, I wish I could help you get over it. But I just don't have those kind of answers. I do want you to know I 100% believe you, for whatever that's worth.

The ONLY idea I had was maybe trying to find out how to get in touch with other abductees.

I'm pretty sure the guys who Fire in the Sky is based on are still alive. I know they went through a lot regarding the media, people not believing them, and of course the actual abduction... and whatnot. But their stories never ever changed, even after being offered lots of cash to say they faked it. They went through a lot, and the one who got abducted also had an adversarial experience, like you. In contrast to what mufon wants people to believe about aliens.

Pictures of the damaged doorframe and your back door?

This might be a bit off topic, but do your parents know? I know that this is terrifying for you, but I simply cannot imagine how awful it would be to know your child had something like this happen to them and there was absolutely nothing you could do to protect them. As a mother, that’s where my mind went, and it made me sick to my stomach. Your fiancé sounds wonderful. Lean on them and let them support you. I hope that time can heal your emotional wounds. PS...I don’t think I’d get hypnotized either. I have some mental blocks too. My gut tells me that I’m not ready to deal with them yet. Trust your gut.

can you post pictures of the bruises or of the door frame scratches?

any updates on this whole situation?

I have not been abducted, but I have seen these forms or entities that are made of like this dark mist or matter. It’s blacker than black and I only saw it at a young age. At my grandparents house I had this reoccurring nightmare that was extremely real. It stopped when my grandpa died. I’m a big skeptic, but I’m a very big thinker and like puzzles, so as a kid I understood fact vs fiction as you kind of explained yourself. I know what I saw and felt was real and now I’ve got this black mist or matter or smoke as something apart of me in a way.

I’ve become more fond of darkness and often talk to this dark matter or mist. It’s almost like a part of me. My other half. I’m able to grab the cold of shade. When I talk about it I often get shivers and feel a presence inside my soul per say. Very weird experience you had. I know many accounts of abductions include radiation poisoning afterwards or even cancer developing. Something with alien technology giving off radiation. Maybe they stopped over the pool because water absorbs radiation and it was a good way to cover their tracks.

Hey, very interesting experience. I'm sorry it happened to you, and please don't get me wrong, I'd normally consider myself a skeptic so saying I believe you is not quite possible, but your experience has actually made me think about my stance for a while.

I'm slightly concerned about the tumour in your head. Do you think the tumour could be the cause of your hormonal imbalances, and maybe even your anxiety? (Center of the brain implies close proximity to the frontal lobe and pituitary gland). I'm glad it's benign though.

I wish you the best of luck and hope you find answers :)

I’ve had similar experiences. Only 2 come to mind, once when I was around 5-7 I shared a room with my brother (I have done this all my life), he had bottom bunk and I had top. I remember getting up some time in the middle of the night to use the restroom. We had just moved into a new home and we did not have curtains over the 3 huge windows that were at the front of our room. As I climbed down I saw it. Just standing at the window staring at me with its hand pressed against the glass. Me being terrified climbs back into the bed and just watched in absolute terror. It stood there for what seemed like an eternity, then simply turned around and ran off into the wheat field that was across from my house, this being had to be at least 7 feet tall because my windows didn’t start until about 6 feet off the ground and I was able to see it’s entire chest region.

The 2nd encounter I had was when I was 17. I have no idea if this occurred before or after an abduction. I was laying in my twin sized bed, I had a window that was just to the right of me about 7 feet from the floor. When I first woke up I immediately recognized my home alarm system blaring, the alarm was going through it’s cycle of repeating “Intruder”. I open my eyes and I see a very bright light in my overhead window, I look twords my feet and there is a being just like the first one I remember seeing. I immediately start to panic, but my whole body feels like it’s asleep, numb, it was like coming out of a heavy anesthesia. I was able to move my limbs but with great effort. The being started to approach the head of my bed and I really start to freak out at this point. I was doing everything in my power to fight back. The last thing I remember is it looming over me, I barely get enough energy to throw my basically limp arm at it, I through my hand right into its eye, then a shriek that I can’t put into words. After that nothing, it was like I used all of my energy just to do that one thing then I passed out, that was my last encounter and I honestly hope it never happens again.

I completely understand the feelings you get when you recall these events. For me when I tell someone about this or think about it I just get an overwhelming since of complete disgust, my eyes start watering and I have goose bumps the entire time.

You have a mass in your brain. I think that has a lot to do with what you experienced. That stuff does some terrifying things to us.

Thanks for sharing your story.

This freaks me out so much.

For literally my entire life I've had almost the exact same reaction any time I see/hear/read anything to do with aliens. I get goosebumps, I shiver, and I start to sob and get choked up. It's an extreme and uncontrollable reaction that I've never had to anything else. Tears are streaming down my face as I'm typing this. I personally have never had an experience, but my mom had one when she was a child... in Indiana.

Are you blonde haired, blue eyed 0 negative blood type? Just out of curiosity?

Thanks for sharing your experience. Sounds absolutely horrifying. I believe I have had a UFO/ET experience when I was very very young, I don’t have the best memory of it at all but my mother recounts it back to me. Whatever happened has left me so fearful (yet extremely curious) about ‘Aliens’. After my experience it took me many years to sleep on my own again. But i was too young at the time to understand what I saw but from what I described to my Mum (even drew a picture - which is conveniently missing ☹️) it sounds out of this world. I would be so upset if I knew that what I saw was something normal that just scared me cause I was young - because of the fear I have had all my life haha Never had any other experiences really, well not UFO related anyway.

As the others have mentioned, I'm sorry you've had such a traumatic experience. What comes to mind for me, and please bear with me, is lucid dreaming. I'm not saying that's what occurred, but with training you might be able to take more control over the subconscious arisings that are contributing to the fear/terror. It does sound like it occurred in an altered state. If you're able to practice and gain confidence in dreams, much less mastering them, you'll be able to at least start healing the residue of the experiences - and potentially more. Just a thought. Good luck. edit; typos

Man, I wish I had more for you. The best resource I can think of for you is Mike Clelland's hiddenexperience.com, because he might be able to refer you to someplace helpful. Be careful and take care.

That’s terrifying I use to live in NWI.

any picssss

I and many others, I'm sure, would love an update or to see those pictures.

I don't believe this story.

Thank you for sharing, OP.

Here is some recommended reading material for you:

http://www.oregonmufon.com/index.php/books

I'm sorry this happened to you. I can't imagine how terrifying it was or how much it affects you now. It sounds like you have some pretty significant PTSD. Another commentor mentioned EMDR. This would be a good therapy that could help you with the flashbacks and terror you experience, if you can find a solid therapist that is also a believer. I have not experienced this myself, but thank you for being brave and sharing your story. It could help others feel less alone.

Interesting stuff. Never felt that kind of fear or want to, but did you get an emotional sense of the aliens? Or are the basically souless robotics?

I ask because our 'vibes' are our intuitive guide and will give you a sense of how evil, neutral or positive beings can be.

Sadly (or maybe luckly) I dont have anything to add to the abduction experience itself. But about MUFON telling you its a positive experience: there's a possibility they could hear how perturbed you were by the experience and didn't want to make you more nervous. I realize it backfired as seeming uncaring or jaded, but maybe it was just some of those lies to tell to calm people down. Not trying to excuse them tho, but maybe there was no malice on their part either ya know?

did you try to talk to the aliens?

Not doubting you OP, but I kinda want to see the scratches on the doorframe. If you can't get a pic I understand.

Really glad you shared this. Your experiences with MUFON are extremely interesting, as well. I'm sorry you've had to go through this and I thank my lucky stars every day that I am of no interest to them. You seem to have thought about the bigger picture and implications a lot and your response seems really level-headed and...healthy. Even if it is a bitch to live with. I sincerely hope there are no more visits for you in the future. (And I wouldn't bother responding to redditors who suggest you don't know what you know...that's a losing battle.)

I'm a bot, bleep, bloop. Someone has linked to this thread from another place on reddit:

• [/r/u_rick-senberg] I was taken from my bed in the middle of the night. (Abductee feedback much appreciated)

 ^{If you follow any of the above links, please respect the rules of reddit and don't vote in the other threads. (Info / Contact)}

Hey, I believe you too! More power to you for coming out with this traumatic experience. I hope the pain lessens over time. Your fiance sounds like an incredible person, I'm glad you have her support. All the best :)

I believe you.

You mentioned looking one of them in the eyes. Can you further describe their eyes/face? Did they look similair to the stereotypical „grey“ image you get when you google it? Also, do you experience the intense fear/shaking etc when you look at some alien/grey images on the internet? Also, do your parents sleep with their door open?

I wish I could attach a picture. I have bruises on my legs that are very strange. Straight down the center of my thigh like someone tried to iron a pleated pant, but it's my thighs. And I'm suddenly missing hair on my forehead. Is suddenly much thinner at my hair line than it was the other day. And I just got a haircut a couple days ago, do I was just looking at my hair recently. And there was a weird mark, like a design in my skin that I tried to take a picture of.. but as I tried to focus in the mirror it faded. Like daaaamn.

Could you share a drawing of what you think the tall greys looked like?

It would be crucial if others sharing similar stories also report encountering the same creatures.

I don't suppose you happened to take any pictures of your bruises that night? The hand ones specifically?

Hi

This former MUFON researcher(he was agnost at the time he was with MUFON) has multiple experiencers testifying on camera. Who 'they' pick is not completely random. They share how they defend themselves. At the end of the interview multiple people come on stage to tell you what they went through and how they've put an end to it.

I use to get sleep paralysis. One time I levitated in the dream. Didn't see anything and could only equate it to a "ghost" because how would I levitate without someone holding me up, had to be a ghost right? Well anyways in the "dream" I felt awake. One of those dreams. When I woke up my whole body was asleep. I have had sleep paralysis, but never waking up with the whole body numb. I just thought about that as I read your story. Something use to happen when I was younger with radio waves, but I always equated it to the fillings in my mouth. Like I would start singing a song and the radio would turn and it would be playing that song. Just odd things from childhood. I guess they can be explained, but I remember the levitating and that was super frightening.

It wasn't aliens, my friend. Those were shadow workers and you're far from the only one who's seen such things. You were abducted but also shifted into a reality not quite entirely in this one we're in now.

Posts with some similarities: OP sees people and can't wake parents, OP frozen in bed, my own experience with similar beings

Most of these encounters aren't nearly as hostile or terrifying as yours. Most of these experiences are with benign or even benevolent entities, yours most certainly was not.

That’s a pretty good story. It was way too long, but you should make a book. Next time record it so we know you’re not lying.
