- * Forwarded from "ParaNet Research"
- * Originally from Keith Basterfield
- * Originally dated 04-02-91 22:34
-
- A recent issue of the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Psychiatry, 1990;
- 24:561-565, carries a several page article by Terry Heins, Allison Gray and
- Maxine Tennant titled "Persisting hallucinations following childhood sexual
- abuse." Thery describe work by an American, Ellenson, who interviewed female
- incest survivors. "Careful mental state examinations found that all showed a
- post-incest syndrome involving specific disturbances in thought (certain types
- of nightmares, obsessions, dissociative experiences and phobias) and in
- perception (certain types of illusions and visual and auditory
- hallucinations)."..."Commonest were shadowy figures, movements in peripheral
- vision, intruder sounds...and inner helper voices..." I see some parallels with
- abductees here. As you may be aware Bob Bartholomew
- and I have drawn researchers attention to the possible link between
- fantasy-prone personality, abductees and childhood abuse. The line of
- thinking would go: could lifelong abductions actually be due to childhood
- (sexual) abuse (which we believe can trigger multiple personality
- disorders), causing a fantasy world creation which is then interpreted by UFO
- researchers as of alien abductions? We have challenged researchers to undertake
- detailed psychological testing
- of abductees to test if they are fantasy-prone, and also suggest the checking
- of their childhood for evidence of sexual abuse. I can supply some references
- for those interested in further reading on this topic. Comments would be
- welcome on this matter.

- Date: 4 Apr 91 06:30:29 GMT
-
- From: snelson@eniac.seas.upenn.edu (Steven Nelson)
-
- When I was young, I'm not certain precisely when, I had a very peculiar
- recurring dream:
-
- It was the fourth of July. We had set up fireworks in the backyard,
- and my father was holding some sort of barbacue. A number of obviously dream-
- like elements mark this as a dream. For example, a pig, which I had treated as
- a pet in the dream, was cooked, then came back to life.
- I crawled to a neighbor's yard-- a huge, grassy field. I saw flashing
- lights coming from the area, which I interpreted as fireworks. As I emerged
- from the clearing, I could see that the lights came from a huge UFO, which
- hovered over the clearing at approximately treetop level. It was bright and
- multicolored. Next I was rising in a beam of light. At the end of the light,
- there was a face. After so many years, I can't tell you what the face looked
- like, except that the skin was pale, perhaps grey, and the mouth was a slit.
- When I saw the face, I would always feel intense terror and wake up.
-
- The oddest part about this whole affair is that I'm CERTAIN that what
- I just described was a dream. None of the classic physical signs occurred:
- no disturbances in the grass, no peculiar wounds, no midnight nosebleeds,
- no notable periods of missing time. At the time, I was pretty sure that I
- had gotten it from watching 'Close Encounters' and seeing Star Trek.
-
- Would anyone care to tell me anything about my dream? What is, in
- your opinion, the likelihood that visitors abducted me? Or was I just scared
- by the fireworks?
-
- -Steve

- Hello Clark! I'd bevery happy to receive THE CONTINUUM. My address:
- 1154 E. Palmcroft
- Tempe, AZ 85252
- Are you still planning to put up that file on Moon Oddities, or is it
- just that I haven't seen it yet?
- The March MUFON UFO Journal (which just came 2 days ago) is
- excellent, BTW, if you happen to subscribe. Has an article that
- presents a new angle on some "crop circles" in Canada; and an article,
- quite lengthy, on an alleged witness to a saucer crash in New Mexico in
- 1947 - ties in with Roswell.
- Don't let the snow get you down. We were at 91 degrees today!
- Bye! Linda.
