Garry Nolan, one of the new talking heads in UFO ology or whatever you want to call, it is Chair of Pathology at Stanford. He claims to have reviewed MRIs of people given to him by the US government, who had reported being injured by encounters with... something. He claims they all had a particular brain abnormality, that was also visible in MRI scans taken before they reported their injuries.

He's clearly implying that some experiencers were essentially born into it. But then he doesn't explain what caused the injuries he was called in to study.

There are many theories, some are more frightening than others. Some say your soul volunteered to be part of a project before you were born. Thats not mine, but r/Experiencers isn't a place for arguing about who's right or wrong. Others say we're getting picked randomly as lab rats.

I think one thing we all agree on is that whatever is happening is not easy to understand.

Its an incredibly frightening experience for most of us. The fear has affected me for decades. It went away for a while, but it came back last year when I started actually seeing UFOs.

If you want advice on keeping them away, I don't think that's possible.
