I was abducted as a child and then had many years of...

No contact or there was repeated contact throughout my teens.

And then I got involved in the community.

And then there's a couple of times where people say, I've just always thought it was interesting.

I started reading books and I started watching documentaries.

And then I had this experience.

And again, I don't think that that the timeline here, you know, predicating the experience necessarily negates or invalidates the experience by any capacity.

It's possible that the openness creates some type of connection with the being that then you can have.

And I see, okay.

Now, that's just an interesting point, the disassociative.

Childhood conflict, psychosocial tension, abuse, and trauma more likely facilitate a disassociative coping style later in life.

How much a part the disassociation plays in the abduction experience remains an open question, but the ring and rosing abuse trauma association pathway remains a viable descriptive principle.

So is this to suggest that many people that have experiences did experience some type of childhood trauma?

Well, that perhaps the way the brain coped with that trauma and created that disassociation perhaps opens you up to experience these things.

That's interesting.

Now on this topic, I'm curious if you've heard this theory.

I'm sure you have.

I'd be shocked if you haven't heard it.

And again, it's not to dismiss the experiences that people have had, but I've heard a theory posited by one of my friends who was himself an experiencer.

he said that he heard a theory that it's possible that children that suffer specifically can he believes or at least this is a theory that he had heard that children experience it's possible that they re-remember experiences that happen to them in a way that disconnects them or perhaps disassociates disassociates them from the experience and mass or charades itself as something different such that they can interface with it in a safe way yeah yeah they'll say when i was
