Question Posessed????

My boyfriend has been having problems since he was 19 years old, he's 32 now. He said the best way he can describe his problems is if I read The Book of Jobe, he said what was happening to Jobe is happening to him. He said he can feel three things in him but he doesn't know what they are, he said they inflict pain, manipulate dreams and thoughts, and cause visions. I know he is telling the truth because his stories never change but Im not sure if he is suffering from schizophrenia or what. He does say that he hears voices and they tell him things. Does anyone know what this could possibly be??? He has seen about 10 psychs and all of them had no answer. One of them actually told him to see a priest in South Carolina. I just dont know what to do anymore. If anyone wants to attempt to give some advise on this I would appreciate it!

Thanks everyone

Re: Posessed????

Hmmmm. . . . very interesting.

Okay, first, it is very, very rare for a person to be possessed. The person must be very weak in order for a spirit to take possession of a person. However, that's not to say that it can't happen.

Secondly, I would say your boyfriend probably does have some kind of personality disorder. I'm surprised a psychologist didn't pick up on that. They do have meds to treat some of his symptoms. I would recommend he use a mental health facility, and not just a private practice shrink.

Now. . having said all that. . . I am a sensitive (intuitive, psychic, etc). You should try this. . . . find a store (either a wicca store, native american tribal store, or a health food store) that sells SAGE! White Sage is best, but regular sage will work too. Have him smudge himself with sage. This is a native american tradition and commonly practiced by all groups.

Have your boyfriend light the sage but let the flame burn out. He should be left with a smoldering smoke. He needs to walk through EVERY room in his house, even in the corners. And then he needs to smudge his own body, from head to toe. The whole time, think POSITIVE and EMPOWERING thoughts. Sage is excellent for clearing out negativity. Think of it like burning the "good luck" or "money" incense you can buy at walmart. Except that white sage has been known to clear out negativity for thousnads of years.

Re: Posessed????

Hi there
I can't believe they actualy sent him to see a priest .There is one thing that he must
understand and that is that possesions are not real ,it's impossible to be possesed
by anything .He should go see a good psychiatrist ,someone who believes in science
and not in religious ********,I wish him all the best ,he is not possesed trust me I know
that for sure .Please tell your boyfriend to get help ,going to a priest wouldn't solve
anything .

oh dear. this sounds very familiar. i think i might know your boyfriend. does his first name start with the letter "e"? if it is who i think it is, you need to get out. no amount of sage or priests or pixie dust is going to help this guy. he's got schizophrenia, and he knows it.

it would be an incredible coincidence if i did know him, but the mentioning of the book of Job really makes me wonder.

you might want to look into dissociative identity disorder (aka multiple personality disorder). it's very real, and if this is who i think it is...well...
