Physical or Psychological Alien Abductions|paranormal

There are always many controversies regarding alien abductions. Many psychologists believe that abductions are psychological, and not a real experience. You know, the whole thing is in your head or you suffer from sleep paralysis, in particular those events or abductions that occur during the night. For now, I am going to say that this could be the case.

Some abductees recall being taken during the day from their home, car, or somewhere else. Unless they were taking a nap, this could point to the sleep paralysis theory, but when we think about the Betty Andreasson abduction and the Travis Walton abduction the theories change. 

Two cases

The Betty case is really hard to believe. She was working in her kitchen while her seven children, mother and father were in the living room, when a bright light invades the house. According to the family they saw the creatures hopping towards the house from the yard.

When Travis and his friends were driving back home, they all saw a shinning light down the road. Travis Jumped out of the truck and ran towards the light. He was struck with a blue light and knocked him down. In panic, his good friends took off. When they finally decided to drive back for Travis, they discovered that he was nowhere to be found. Few days later, Travis made a phone call to his family and told them that he was inside an extraterrestrial spacecraft. 

Victims

Travis and Betty were pretty much awake. Both cases have witnesses. Travis was driving with his friends. Betty and her family saw the aliens hopping towards their house. If they were not sleeping, how can the victims experienced sleep paralysis? 

Many victims recall being laid down on an operating table, others say that were unable to move, speak while they were inside the spacecraft. Most victims returned to the same location they think they were taken from, but they don’t remember anything about the incident. In rare cases, like Travis, makes you question everything. Perhaps he and his friends wanted some attention. If that is not the case, psychologists can’t really tell for sure if somebody suffers from sleep paralysis when everybody was awake.
