my experience is too strange to tell others, page 1

unusedphoenix:

have you considered this strategy for getting physical evdence:

you and your wife are narcoleptic so you've got easy access to antinarcolepsy meds -- if you're like other narcoleptics i know you've probably got a fair amount of provigil or cylert around already -- and i'd imagine that your wife would be able to stay awake all night on those if she needed to. why not get your wife to use those to stay awake next time she wakes up and you're not there, and then stay awake until you get brought back?

even if they do something to force her back unconscious when they're bringing you back, the fact that she probably shouldn't be able to fall asleep if she's just taken some provigil/cylert is indirect physical evidence that something unusual is going on.

also, while your wife's up she'll probably have time to set up some hidden cameras around your house -- webcams, videocameras, whatever you can get access to -- and maybe you'll get lucky: i'm imaging that whoever does abductions is pretty careful when they're taking you out, but they might get careless when they're bringing you back, if you see what i'm saying; they might be expecting you to try to film them when they come get you, etc., but then just assume when they're bringing you back that nothing's changed since then.

if this strategy works you'll probably get some physical evidence. to be even more sure i'd have your wife try not only setting up cameras and such but also try to set things up so you'll know if any windows have been opened. for example, if you cut some really thin strips of newspaper out and tape them to your closed windows and doors in out-of-the-way places -- places people aren't likely to look, but where the papers will rip if the door or window is opened -- then you'll know something opened that door if after you're back some of the papers are ripped. the reason to use newspaper is to make it hard for anyone to fix the rip if they notice this plan: if all the strips come from a particular article from like a week-old paper, you can put the article back together in the morning and see if any of the strips are "wrong", and if the paper's a week old whoever's abducting you will have a hell of a time finding it in time to make a perfect replacement, if you see what i'm saying.

none of these strategies may work, and none of them are as good of physical evidence as bringing back something from your abduction may be, but they MAY work and if they did work then you'd have SOME physical evidence, especially if the hidden cameras caught anything.

one other thing: i can think of at least one reason why it's worth talking about your experiences. most people who think they've been abducted can barely remember the experience and feel like their memories of their abduction have been wiped or replaced with "screen" memories. apparently their memory cleaning procedure doesn't work on you -- maybe because of something related to your narcolepsy, for example -- but if you can describe at all how they (try to) administer the memory cleaning to you it might give us clues as to possible ways to counteract it. in the long run, that might be really helpful at getting to the bottom of all this for a lot of abductees.

so although getting physical evidence would make it easier to get other people to believe you, there's still some use to talking about your experiences now: you'll be taken seriously here, and the unique qualities of your experiences -- that the memory wiping doesn't seem to work on you -- might be really helpful to a lot of other people in similar situations.

so, if you want to give it, a description of how they administer or try to administer to memory cleaning could be really, really useful. some questions about it: is there any physical apparatus associated with it, like some kind of machine? can you tell when they're trying to wipe your memory, or is it just something you've figured out isn't happening for you?

how does their paralysis work -- is it just something that happens or is there any kind of device or physical feeling associated with it?

some other questions:

do you remember your abductions from beginning to end, or just pieces of them? if you remember them from start to finish, what's the typical sequence? if you only remember pieces, are there some parts of them you usually remember and some parts you don't? which parts?

you mention making everyone stand in line. how many people are there, typically? do you see the same people over and over? do you have any idea if they're there for similar or different reasons than you -- in other words, do you have any sense if they're there for different experiments than you are?

in any case, i hope my advice is helpful, and thanks for sharing so far.
