And those are the dangers of telling a real Demon that he does not exist, now he has to prove a point. btw stop running, face the issue, and be done with it.

Good luck

My brother plays a video game or something where every night the high schoolers of the town have to fight off bad guys while the rest of the town is unconscious - everyone wakes up the next morning to things smashed or whatever, but no one witnesses what happened. I think I know where you are.

Auditory hallucinations are a bitch. I get them on occasion and in theory, I have nothing but depression/anxiety. If you have someone else present with you, and they react only to your reaction and not the sound, I would class it as a hallucination. I heard one of our kids drop the toilet lid once, at night when my husband and I were in bed vegging on our phones, and I jumped, but my husband didn't react AT. ALL. And no one came out of the bathroom. Hallucination.

I have schizophrenia (schizoeffective actually) along with bipolar 1 disorder. I've had hallucinations, delusions, and psychotic episodes in my life and.. this doesn't sound like that to me. It is absolutely possible that your OCD is making you hear and think things that you normally wouldn't. Sometimes, we can be vulnerable to the feelings of others and this little girl was honest with you in that unlike most patients, she would never get to a 0 and maybe that made you uncomfortable because yours never went to 0 either. You fed on her anxiety while she fed on your calm. But, demons don't usually transfer targets like that. They're either attached to a place or a person, but not both. The only way that the demon could have transferred to you is if you had upset it during the session, but it would more than likely want to punish the host than you. So, I don't think that the demon attached itself to you either.

Logically, I'd say that if it would make you feel better, go to a local church of whatever persuasion you'd like and get some sort of blessing, sage your house, put up protection charms, create a salt barrier. Do any and all things to reassure yourself that even if nowhere else is entirely safe that at least your home is.

I would also say that it would be very rare for schizophrenia to manifest after early 20s and that even anxiety and depression can cause psychosis. But, this isn't psychosis, because you're still able to logic and coherently speak to yourself and others. You're still talking like you're within reality.

Maybe the stress and tiredness is causing auditory hallucinations. The less you sleep, the worse it'll get. So, try to sleep. You'll be okay. That's what I always tell myself. That it'll be okay tomorrow. Just get through tonight.

Carla's confusion suggests that everyone in the village is supposed to be a vessel on 6/9. I wonder if your village's ancestors had to make a deal with some supernatural or alien entity to survive in the past. Does your village have a religion that might offer clues as to who is taking over control of everyone's bodies?
