Definitely interesting experiences. My sighting, back in the early 00s, was an unusually bright point of light low in the sky that lingered in place for hours. It seemed too stationary for anything astronomical and stood out from everything else in the sky. It was a fairly rural area, so there wouldn't be that many other witnesses if any at all. I felt drawn to go out to look at it and checked on it throughout the night. Each time I'd find it still in place up through the time I went to bed.
I wouldn't have made much of it other than being an odd sighting, except that I experienced some odd health issues in the days following. Decades later and I just recently got diagnosed with an autonomic disorder of unknown cause and origin. Looking back, that was the earliest episode I could recall. Could be sheer coincidence and, being one for facts, I treat it as so. But, it was an odd occurrence and became one of many to fuel my interest in the subject throughout my life.
And, I do think we'll see a lot more people recalling events in their life that they may now attribute to UAP. It gets tricky there because of how fragile memory can be. However, whatever the experiences may be, they should help fuel public interest in the phenomenon.
Thanks for talking about that. The time scale of "saw something that affected me later" is very drawn out in a lot of cases as I understand it.
I know I have never had an experience like that before or since. Like you, I'm pretty grounded which is why I find that one event to be so significant.
