First of all, it is possible that you are under demonic attack, but it is not very likely. In my examination of your question, I will approach this situation from the perspective of someone who has not only studied mental illness extensively, but who also suffers from chronic depression. If this perspective interests you, then read on, and I will explain why I doubt this is actually a case of demonic intrusion and what you might be able to do.
To begin with, Hell is not really thought of as a place thatās easy to leave, even for a demon. Although there are of course substantiated accounts of demonic activity on Earth, the relative infrequency of such events suggests that most demons simply donāt have the mojo required to make the trip. Even if they did, physical manifestations on the mortal plane are simply not strategically sound for a being with an interest in keeping you AWAY from God and the Church. The fact that you made it to this website is proof enough of that. Therefore, we can assume that any demonic entity attempting direct, physical contact with a human would most likely be insane.
Now, obviously, we donāt know a lot about the psychology of celestial beings. However, we can surmise a few things. First, Hell is by all religious accounts first and foremost a separation from God. If celestial insanity is, as is the case with humans, a response to trauma, we can conclude that the closer a celestial beingās relationship to God, the greater the degree of trauma when that relationship is severed, thereby increasing the likelihood of a breakdown in its ability to think rationally. Secondly, tradition and writing about angels typically describes power or authority of angels in terms of closeness to God. Therefore, we can conclude this about demons: the more insane the demon, the greater its power.
Since, as was established earlier, a demon would have to be significantly impaired in its ability to rationally process information and formulate plans in order to attempt physical manifestations, such a being would also likely be incredibly powerful. Frankly, the displays of power that you describe simply arenāt dramatic enough to be the work of a demon undertaking such an ill-advised scheme.
It is, in my opinion, more likely that you are exhibiting selective attention to mundane events in order to reinforce an irrational belief in your own ābadnessā. You may be looking for an outside source to validate a negative opinion of yourself. Personally, my own depression causes me to do something similar. I seek out rejection from women in order to validate my opinion of my own inherent worthlessness. Naturally, youāre not going to find too many people validating negative beliefs about yourself when you are surrounded by people who love you, so you may be looking for supernatural validation in the form of demons. (after all, who knows badness better?) This would also explain your spouseās mood change. He may be feeling frustrated that you canāt appreciate yourself the way he does. He may also feel scared and powerless. Many men exhibit such emotions with what looks like anger or hostility, being socially conditioned away from more honest expressions.
I would recommend that you discuss these issues with a therapist as soon as possible. Marriage counseling would also be a good idea in order to help your husband express his feelings to you within the safety of a therapeutic relationship. I would caution against hanging additional religious iconography if you donāt have a previous inclination to doing so. Sudden shifts in behavior will be likely to increase the tension in your marriage as your husband will fear that your personality is changing in ways he canāt predict or control.
When I first arrived at this home I did not notice activity, but was told about things that had gone on in the home prior to me moving in. I have been suffering with depression and had a major attempt at taking my life. By the grace of God, he saved me. Since my recovery and coming home, things started to happen. Where I attempted to take my life, I have a printer that is unplugged and it will make noises. In addition, you can hear things through out the house. I can feel that there is something here or several somethings here. My daughter bought me a photo album for Christmas that plays music and it does it by itself. I have seen a dark shadow move quickly across the room. Even the dog will stay by me and growl looking in a certain direction, but I canāt see anything. I have faith in the Lord, but I have to admit that I am starting to get scared. I try to ignore these things and things are getting worse. What can I do to stop this? I have said many prayers and the more I pray or speak of the Lord, the more things happen. Please help me. I am in a very fragile state right now and I donāt know what to do. My significant other has changed drastically. He is very aggresive towards me and he is getting worse. Please, please, please, help.
