Superstitious, religious, and dream stuff
Septimius Maximinus
So I just decided to write an article about this cause, idk i'm bored. I have always been a very superstitious person and a spiritual person and was raised by a religious mother, we never went to church and I never read the bible but i would still say I am a religious person. Most of this started with my weird sleep problems, when I was little I dealt with night terrors, extreme nightmares, sleep walking and sleep talking, the past few years I have dealt with sleep paralysis which means you wake up but are unable to move or speak and you hallucinate, the first time I seen a demon, pitch black shape with white sharp jagged teeth and the second time I didn't even open my eyes but I could hear it. All my life I have had very vivid realistic dreams, when I go to sleep it's like I watch a movie every night in my head.
I had a dream a while ago that involved a demon, in it I was in an old residence and it was night time, I walked into my bedroom and it was pitch black inside, the only light coming from a red clock and immediately I felt this presence there, it didn't speak nor did I actually see it because it was too dark but the door behind me slammed shut and I felt like it was literally sucking the life force out of me, I just got really tired and I could hardly move but I managed to actually crawl to the door, open it and escape but it took a tremendous amount of energy and for a while after that every time I was in my room and it was dark I started having that feeling like my life force was being siphoned away.
It got to a point recently that I had to get (strong) medication(s) dealing with anxiety and sleep, and that's what I use now. Another reason why I wanted to talk about this was because I (against my better judgment) started watching these ghost shows and recently became more religious, about a week ago or so I found myself searching up prayers that would generally help deal with this and honestly I felt they work I'll put a link in case anyone is curious. And I know it sounds stupid but to me all of this is real, like it's stuff I have to deal with and the remedy s I take now really seem to be working for me. ---> http://www.tldm.org/news24/5-Prayers-Recommended-By-An-Exorcist-To-Combat-Evil.htm

Being nervous, anxious and scared leads people to religion, humans have always been afraid of the unknown and turning to religion is like a placebo for the brain, it allows people to find security when there seems no other choice.
Personally I can't stand religion as I believe it all to be fake and a means to control sections of the global community through fear.
What you are experiencing we have all gone through at some time or another, but if you focus on the fake stuff (Religion, ghosts, spirits, vegans) you will fall into the trap of getting even deeper into your fears, so my advice to you would be to allow yourself to dream and wonder but don't be scared, try to control your thoughts in a more positive fashion and you'll find that these things over time will dissipate and you will see things for what they really are 🙂
I do understand what you are saying as there was a time when I considered myself an agnostic and I didn't want to believe and I do understand the placebo idea however after I am satisfied with believing,
