Are you saying that you think demons are harassing you? However you mention problems with people ( relationships) but then also praying and sleeping? What is happening?

You can sleep with a St Benedict medal pinned to your nightshirt. Bless yourself with Holy Water before you sleep. Also, pray the Holy Rosary at night. Put a crucifix by your bed. The Devil hates all these things…aside from that, could it be that it’s just sleep apnia or whatever they calls it?

We also pray the St. Michael prayer every night before bed. But yes, the St. Benedict medal, holy water, etc.

I was just speaking with someone today who suggested I start to pray the rosary daily. She told me if it is emotional/mental in nature, the rosary will help, and if it is demonic, the rosary will help; so either way, the rosary will help.

Blessings.

Hi Badwi,

I think that you might benefit if you sought advice from your priest? I doubt that anyone on this board is properly qualified to help you if you really have a spiritual problem, or a physical one for that matter. We can all pray for you, and I invite the readers to do so.

if you experience anything of a spiritual nature that is causing you anxiety you take it immediately to your priest confessor or spiritual director for discernment. very few lay people are competent to distinguish disturbances arising from natural psychological or physical sources from spiritual events, nor of distinguishing heavenly from demonic sources for those experiences. The most common source of a feeling of being attacked is personal sin, the next most common, living in an atmosphere of sin or ungodliness. In all cases, the guidance of a good priest is essential.

If you believe you are being harassed by demons the first thing is to pray, which you have done. Now you should go to a priest or your spiritual director, as puzzleannie said.

If you can think of anything in your past life that was an involvement with the occult you should confess it in Confession. This would be things like playing with a ouija board or going to fortunetellers, even if it was just for fun. In such cases you may have never thought to confess them because they weren’t mortal sins, however, such things can open the door to an evil influence.

If you think you may have been cursed by someone, especially a relative, you should ask the priest to pray with you and give you a blessing. He will know what to do. You may also wish to ask him to bless your house. He can also give you a prayer to say which uses the name of Jesus Christ to bind evil spirits.

Although this is upsetting, you should not be discouraged. These things sometimes happen, even to saints and to people who are trying to get closer to God. Keep praying and trusting God.

Of course, it’s possible that such feelings have physical or emotional causes and are not from evil spirits, so it might help to be checked over by a doctor also.

I agree with all of the above, especially go to Confession and seek the guidance of a priest. also try the Jesus prayer many many times during the day, " Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, have mercy on me, a sinner."

Also ask jesus to cover you with His Precious Blood for protection.

You are so true, however, there are times when it could be a combination so it probably is best to seek both the priest and a doctor, as you said in your last paragraph.
