have you been abducted?

**Man of Shred** · 01-24-2008 08:18 AM

Just for fun!!!!

Most people who claim to have been abducted exhibit similar characteristics. Whether there are lingering effects of abduction is still a subject of heated debate. The SCIFI.COM UFOlogy Resource Center has collected the 58 most common signs of abduction. If you exhibit some or all of these signs, you may want to consider the possibility that you have been taken. Remember, this is by no means proof that you have had an abduction experience. Instead, consider these questions a tool to compare your experience with those of others.

Only in my dreams... seriously, I had a dream I was abducted, though it was your stereotypical neko-cat people from anime shows as the aliens... and I definitely enjoyed it, due to certain things happening... wink wink, nudge nudge

I've other dreams involving aliens, but never your stereotypical green or grey alien. Anyhoo... shouldn't this be more in The Lounge as opposed to the Extended discussion? Just a thought...

I do not believe in alien abductions. Sleep paralysis explains everything about them. That's not to say I wouldn't mind having the experience, even if it wasn't "real".

1. Have you had unexplainable missing or lost time of one hour or more?

Yes. Used to happen to me a couple years ago. Kind of weird.

2. Have you been paralyzed in bed with a being in your room?

No. I've only been in sleep paralysis a few times that I can remember (once this morning, actually), but no "beings" in the room.

No, no, and no. I have an interest in politics but that’s about it.

Nope.

12. Have you had a secret feeling that you are somehow "special" or "chosen"?

Yes. Hasn't everybody?

Nope. But I do use EBE picks!

20. Do you have inexplicably strong fears or phobias (e.g., fear of heights, snakes, spiders, large insects, certain sounds, bright lights or being alone, or fear for your personal security)?

Bugs creep me out. Not a huge phobia though.

21. Have you experienced self-esteem problems much of your life?

Yes, very much so.

22. Have you seen someone with you become paralyzed, motionless or frozen in time, especially someone you sleep with?

12. Have you had a secret feeling that you are somehow "special" or "chosen"?

This is probably common sinse people experience/percieve life through the first person and therefore (prehaps due to survival issues) everything else can seem less significant. Hey, I used to think as a child that prehaps everyone else was not real and they only "lived" because I was around them! :p

30. Have you had dreams of passing through a closed window or a solid wall?

Every time I have a Lucid Dream I always end up walking (or at least trying to) through a window or wall.
