I just saw this posted on a site where I participate in helping students and their parents apply to college. I want to scream, shout, cry. Rather than an emotional "what are you thinking!" response....anyone have ideas as to how best to assist? See post below:

Title of the post [ Roommate is being visited by aliens (psychological problems?)]

Initial post by the person:
My college son and I were just talking and I mentioned that his younger brother had wanted to see a movie about paranormal experiences. He told me that his girlfriend's roommate has been talking about nightly visits from aliens. She was really alarmed this week because she "levitated" above her bed and saw letters on her ceiling. She told her roommate that her cousin experiences the same thing. Her parents didn't believe her at first, but now they do. She showed son's gf several internet articles about other people being "visited", so now they're actually thinking this could really be happening. I assured son that it wasn't and that this girl could have some type of psychological problem (athlete, plus under a lot of pressure this semester) or maybe it's just a cry for attention. Son thought he saw an episode of House, where it turned out to be neurological problems. (Are those House shows ever real situations?) I don't want to debate extraterrestrial beings, but don't you think the girl should get some help? Unfortunately, her parents live 8 hours away, but I'm sure my son's gf could figure out a way to contact them. Somehow I doubt that they know about these "visits".
