Was it ever said in here if the OP’s STORY had a link to any occult practices?

Agree. It beggars credulity to think the claim in the OP is serious.Get help. Go see a counsellor. And don't troll the forums.
Dude that gives me chills. When my wife and I were looking at houses 5 years ago, we looked at one and the people living there had Buddhist artifacts all over their home. I declined the house mainly because of that. I felt the dark essence everywhere.
Was that an evil spirit or just feeling unnerved by something foreign? I think the latter is much more likely.
This is what I mean by being drawn into a dangerous worldview that sees the supernatural at work everywhere, instead of looking for more mundane explanations first.
I’ve heard that you have to dabble in the occult to even be vulnerable towards any type of spiritual torment
Wrong
This is the only part of your reply that bothered me
Ditto with the Catholic attitudeThe right attitude to bring into such a situation is that something psychological and/or otherwise natural is going on. Since it is reasonably light objects that are allegedly being tossed about, perhaps the true culprit is neither God nor Satan but wind.
Ditto with the Catholic attitude
Hear hoof beats, think horse not zebras.
That is the attitude that the Catholic Church brings to the situation.
I see. Sorry manSorry just trying to make light of things! Of course demons etc exist.
I've never heard of any kind of exorcism or cleansing by Catholics other than the portrayed Hollywood versions where it is more of a ritual than real deliverance and healing.Good advice. The Catholic Church is old enough it has experience with the dangers of magical thinking getting out of control.
Excuse me for being straight, but what's your deal? Do you not believe in demonic spirits/the supernatural?They have a long history of investigating bread bags and shampoo bottles flying across the room?

If you are saying that you don't believe that this is possible, then you are deceived. However, this is Satan's plan, to 1/ make us believe that he doesn't exist and 2/ make us believe that God doesn't exist either.I love the topic, it’s fun, but as far as my measuring rod to believe an individual account of PROOF that the supernatural took place VS my general beliefs in the possibility of the supernatural, they are worlds apart.
I guess I should save my posts on this matter for a thread that’s a general discussion on the topic, instead on one that claims to be a cry for help on the matter. I was about to make a huge post on some of my general thoughts of the supernatural, I’ll save that for another place.
Sometimes the entity cannot be simply ignored.I grew up in a house with ghosts and we’ve just discovered that our current house is haunted. Since I suspect you aren’t into the solutions I’d provide, simply ignore it.
Seriously? If you don't believe that this stuff can be real..... you are asleep.Agree. It beggars credulity to think the claim in the OP is serious.
They are real and not all are Catholic. A pastor that spoke at our church has done them. You just don't hear about it much in the non-catholic world and Hollywood always portrays a priest and the crucifix, Holy water and such.. non of which are needed or have any power. They are idols.I've never heard of any kind of exorcism or cleansing by Catholics other than the portrayed Hollywood versions where it is more of a ritual than real deliverance and healing.
