Topic: Last night I had a dream... and woke up convinced I'd been abducted!

One thing to remember in this is - my mum has epilepsy. Sometimes she has really scary fits where she seems possessed, but luckily that's rare. In my dream last night, I dream she had really weird fits which possessed other people too! Like she dragged other people into her "fits", which were kind of... slow-motion, and everything was "green" and weird, and when it happened to me I tried to shout "Help!" to my dad and brother, who were in the next room, but no sound would come out and I couldn't move normally until I really struggled. Through this dream, I "knew" she was being controlled by the aliens of sorts, or yes - "reptilians".
When I broke free, I told dad it wasn't natural for other people to be dragged into her fits... and then, apparently, when it happened - her arm turned into a map of some planet. It went see-through and there was a green map on it. Then she had another fit and started talking all weird, so my dad slapped her!! Then it got worse... and he punched her! Then she stood there and just shouted "reptilians reptilians reptilians!" over and over again, there was something soooo creepy about it... I jumped towards her to stop her, then I woke up.(for real)
This bit's creepier, it was to me anyway. I woke up in a totally different position to how I always go to sleep (and wake up)... it's usually on my side. I was lying straight on my back, my hands by my sides, as if someone had placed me there with no idea of how people slept. I felt slightly paralysed. I was SO scared... it was 4.30am and I wasn't sure if I was really awake, but I was terrified of going back to sleep, or putting my light on. I went to the toilet in the end, and my dad was also awake - apparently he'd heard "noises" coming from my room and was wondering if I was okay. I hugged him and told him I was scared, but then I saw a weird look on his face and thought - he's not really my dad!! He's one of them!! So I quickly made my excuses and went back to bed.
I was so afraid.I really thought I'd been abducted and put back in my bed... and afraid that all this reptilian stuff could actually be true. Because I read it and talk about it and "believe" it, but I thought - do I actually, truly believe it? No. Only in the way that I "believe" fantasy worlds presented to me in books. I don't actually, truly accept it as truth. That's why the thought that it actually could be real is so scary, and why I retreat back into my safe little reality of laughing the whole thing off.
I went back to sleep anyway and I'm fine now, and the whole thing seems stupid. But I thought I'd tell you anyway... reckon it means anything, or is it just my imagination?

There could be several things happening here:

1.  It could be a real abduction, and your "dream" was actually a screen memory of this abduction.  Screen memories are just that - memories that act as a screen, shielding you from the real, literal memory of what actually happened.  So instead of seeing a Gray / Reptillian / fill in the blank, you'll see something else.  The only thing that will indicate that something weird is going on (such as an abduction) will be the crazy, negative nature of the "dream." 

2.  It was just a bad dream, brought on by your recent involvement with alien / reptillian / abduction research.  It seems you've been obsessively thinking about it and focusing on it, since it's a new subject, (and a very interesting one at that, no doubt, so it's understandable).   Anything that we focus intently on will usually manifest in our dreams.   And since the material is unnerving to you, the dream was negative, which reflected that view.


The only thing I can recommend is to get a handle on the fear that you may be experiencing around this material.  Even if you don't believe in abductions, it's still never a wise thing to have obsessive focus with fear on any subject.  Fear is a "negative" frequency which draws "stuff" in.  So even if you hadn't had any problems, issues, or abductions prior to your newfound research, you could very well find yourself experiencing the very thing you're obsessively thinking about and fearing.   And I don't say this to instill more fear, it's all very matter of fact.   If you're interested in the whole aliens / abductions / reptillian research, see if you can try to do so with a more detached mindset.  It'll probably make a difference, and the bad dreams will stop. 

Anyway, hope that helps......

When considering the subject of abductions, I feel like it is somewhat of a sidetrack to focus so much on if it "really" happened.

The majority of abduction experiences leave behind no physical evidence that they ever happened.  Then even if you do have some sort of physical evidence and you talk to people about it they will likely ignore you, ridicule you, or avoid you.

That's why places like NR can be helpful.  Then again abduction is such a charged issue that even here emotion gets flying rather quickly.

In concert with my general thoughts on abduction, I feel it is important to look at the subject from a larger view.

You've obviously had some kind of experience that you are responding to.  So the larger question is how you will respond to the experience.  Does it matter if it "really" happened?

We are conditioned to place more importance on events that have some physical correlate when in fact the vast majority of events do not manifest physically.

Just some initial thoughts.
