175: Depression
I’ve already written about two of the dreaded companions of many Abductee/Experiencers, fear and paranoia. (blog posts 135 & 151, respectively) Now I’m going to talk about the last of the triple threat,depression.Wikipedia defines depression as “a state of low mood and aversion to activity that can affect a person'sthoughts, behavior, feelings and physical well-being. It may include feelings of sadness, anxiety,emptiness, hopelessness, worthlessness, guilt, irritability, or restlessness.”Last year theCenters for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) released a report regarding the prevalence of depression in the United States. The findings showed that on average 9 percent of the US population met the criteria for depression during the study period, between 2006 and 2008.Although many people outside the UFO contact experience have bouts of depression for any number of reasons, the depressive episodes Abductee/Experiencers under go are ultimately about loosing control of one’s personal life and/or the feeling of being violated. For many Abductee/Experiencers ET contact is(at least at first) a shattering experience. It’s meant to be. Paradigms aren’t shifted easily. A paradigmis supposed to be something that you can rely on, like the ground under your feet. If it shiftsunexpectedly, you can lose your balance and fall. This can happen even when a person is unaware of their ET visits, and when it does many react with bouts of depression, sometime clinically severe.Often these people seek psychiatric help and wind up in their local mental health system, misdiagnosed(usually with Bipolar Disorder

) and taking psychotropic prescription medications. If you suspect thatyour depression, which might be cyclic in nature, is due to ET contact experiences (especially if youdon’t have the corresponding “highs” that characterize true Bipolar Disorder), then I suggest that youdon’t go down that road. It’s likely to be a dead end and it won’t be easy to turn around and go back,once you’re in the system. A diagnosis of mental illness can haunt you for a lifetime. Don’t go there if you don’t have to.
