Chris Bledsoe was prescribed the drug Lithium, a overdose put him in the hospital as he almost died from the medication. Chris said his encounters started soon after his overdose. Here are some possible reasons his Lithium overdose could of triggered NHI contact.

\n\n

Altered Brain Chemistry and Neural Sensitivity: Lithium impacts neurotransmitter balance, especially affecting mood, perception, and sensory processing. An overdose might temporarily or permanently alter brain chemistry, potentially enhancing neural sensitivity or opening up new channels of perception, possibly allowing for experiences or "connections" that are usually closed off.

\n\n

Energetic or Frequency Shift: Some theories about alien contact suggest that extraterrestrials might communicate through forms of energy or consciousness that most people don’t normally detect. A major shift in body chemistry, like an overdose, might alter the body’s energy field or frequency, potentially drawing attention or making someone more accessible to outside influences.

\n\n

Psychic or Telepathic Abilities: Lithium's interaction with the brain could, theoretically, awaken latent psychic or telepathic abilities. If certain alien species use telepathy to communicate, they might detect this change and view the person as a unique individual capable of receiving or responding to such signals.

\n\n

Medical Curiosity or Study: If extraterrestrials observe humanity and monitor changes in health, consciousness, or brain chemistry, they might be intrigued by someone who experienced such a significant shift. The overdose could make this individual a point of interest, particularly if they study the effects of various substances on human consciousness.

\n\n

Possible NDE/Altered Consciousness State: Near-death experiences (NDEs) have sometimes been associated with increased reports of paranormal or alien encounters. A person who nearly dies from an overdose might experience an NDE or profound alteration in consciousness that draws attention from non-human intelligences.

With all of the UAP discussion recently, I began to take a more serious interest in the phenomenon. After reading reports of orbs, astral projection and the supposed link to human consciousness, I found myself recently remembering some bizarre occurrences that took place around thirty years ago.

\n\n

In my late teens I had several strange experiences that I have only recently been able to recall with clarity. I was working in care home in North Wales at the time and was hearing many ghost stories from the staff and residents. I would also take care of certain residents after they had passed away by dressing them in fresh clothes for the undertakers to take away.

\n\n

One evening after work, I went to stay with a friend who had offered my a place to sleep as I was having trouble with my stepfather and didn't want to interact with him. When walking to his flat, we got the feeling that we were being followed by something. We could hear footsteps and clattering which we realised was coming from the rooftops of the buildings around us. My friend became so unnerved that he began chasing the sounds, despite the fact the noises were on top of the nearest buildings. Once we got to our destination, I am unsure of what we said to figure this out but I was able to send my thoughts to my friend, directly. At first I thought that he was playing some sort of trick on me and began to think about the strangest things I could picture, only for him to perfectly tell me what I was imaging. I have never really understood what happened so I put it to the back of my mind for decades.

\n\n

The other incident was around a year or so later. I was at home with two friends and we were sat watching TV or gaming or similar. We were sat in a semi circle and I noticed a small ball in the room with us. Me and one of my friends watched this small orb move silently sideways and touch my friends back, where it immediately disappeared. As soon as it touched her, she let out a little yelp and turned around to see what we had done to her. We were mystified and told her what we had seen. She said that it felt like a static shock and thought that we'd pranked her somehow.

\n\n

It's been odd to realise that two of the most bizarre events in my life could have been almost forgotten about. I am curious to know if I have other suppressed memories as this definitely seems to fit with the patterns of high strangeness that I have learned about recently.

\n\n

TLDR; I sent my thoughts and saw an orb in my home but I have only just remembered.

Last night C2C AM had John Rhodes on whose research has primarily been encased in reptilian beings living inside the earth. He talked about how they evolved alongside us and have been living beneath the surface and about how UFOs are essentially their technology.

\n\n

One issue I have with this is why all of the sudden would they just crash in 1933 in Italy if they’ve been here longer than we have. In my honest opinion when thinking about this with the Bob Bigelow 60 minute interview where he says aliens are right under our noses - it could be possible that this is the narrative that could be pushed out to us with the aim that these are not invaders but rather another species that has the same right to the planet as we do in an effort for people to be more accepting of these beings.

\n\n

I don’t buy it. What are your thoughts?

That's my story lol. I do have to add that after this happened I googled the address the motel 6 is at and there had been a grizzly double suicide sometime in the 80s or 90s. An older couple checked in (I forget if it was a random motel or if it was a motel 6 by then) both got into a large container filled with some kind of acid and died in what I'm guessing was an extremely painful death.. I remember reading that the cleaning lady had to be hospitalized from the fumes from just opening the door and standing at the doorway.

We are the orphans of the cosmos, drifting through the vast emptiness with our eyes wide open, searching for meaning, for purpose, for something to hold onto. Feeling our way through the darkness, we reach out, as if trying to grasp the edge of an answer.

\n\n

Generations have come and gone, each reaching further than the last, asking, exploring, daring to hope. Every age has had its torchbearers—thinkers, explorers, those who ventured into the unknown, driven by a relentless need to unlock the mysteries of existence. They traveled every path, following even the faintest glimmers of truth.

\n\n

Yet, every time we cried out to the void, pleading for answers, we were met with the same, unyielding silence, as though the universe itself had nothing to offer but the haunting echo of its own mysteries, deeply rooted within us. This endless search, a burden passed down through the ages, has lingered like a cosmic curse.

\n\n

But now… here we are, closer than any generation before us, standing at the edge of something monumental. A single step lies before us—a step that no one has ever taken.

\n\n

The world as we know it is shifting, on the brink of a new dawn. We’re about to embark on a journey toward something that has been waiting for us, timeless and patient, as if it knows us as we know it.

\n\n

This is the moment when we’ll realize that our existence is more than mere stardust adrift in space.

\n\n

So, let go of everything that holds you back, and open your mind to what lies ahead. We stand on the brink of a new era, one that will redefine our understanding of ourselves, our place in the vastness of the universe, and the cosmos itself—long waiting for us to finally take this step.
