"I don't know if we even mentioned UFOs. It was to find out why Barney was emotionally upset"

Betty Hill's quote is likely describing an incident that occurred in 1961, when she and her spouse, Barney, reported seeing a UFO while driving through New Hampshire. The Hills were so emotionally affected by the experience that they looked for a psychiatrist to assist them understand what had actually occurred. During their session, the Hills went over the occurrence in detail, but it is unclear if they specifically pointed out UFOs. Betty's quote recommends that the purpose of the session was to understand why Barney was so mentally upset, rather than to discuss the specifics of the UFO sighting. This recommends that the Hills were more worried with understanding the psychological effect of the experience than with going over the details of the sighting. Eventually, the Hills' experience with the UFO left them with more questions than answers, however it did provide them with a greater understanding of the psychological effect of such an experience.
