Well that depends. Your "illness" is probably minor, right? ADD, dyslexia, maybe Asberger's or something? EVERYONE I KNOW has a mental illness like this. ^__~ Most of them are just.. part of your brain functioning differently or slightly bellow average. But doctors have come up with a name for every one of these little things.

Unless it's something really bad that truly interferes with how you function, I wouldn't worry about demons. And even then, I wouldn't jump to conclusions. There are lots of kinds of mental illnesses, and even if some are caused by demons, some may not be.


actually i have disculcalia,a mathematical form of dyslexia,"aparently" I had ADD as a kid,they arent mild.whats troubling me is the nervous breakdown i had several years ago,the extreme claustrophobia,the OCD and the social phobia.yes this does affect how i function and controls my life in so many cruel ways.i cannot use a lift,plane or go in the back of a car with out windows and doors at the back,nor can i go in an automathic electronic car,which are how cars are made now.i find mixing and making new friends hard.my OCDisms control my life and are a major source of frustration for me and my family.


ahh i see now. well what kid HASNT been diagnosed with ADD? hell i was diagnosed with it when i was in KINDERGARTEN.....freaking idiots for psychologists and they still exist -_-....they get paid huge amounts of money for putting people on pills. did you know that? they'll do anything to put kids on pills these days. not all of them are bad...but most are.

however I've never heard of disculcalia. Think thats a new one. My friend has a small case of claustrophobia and many other people have it as well, none of which are a form of demon possession. and OCD's can come even in the smallest of forms. in fact everybody has one in one form or another. for example: i have to keep my things organized. it bugs me when its not....and if something isn't like almost neatly perfect for lets say a homework assignment (mainly is it written down neatly) ill redo the whole thing to get it all clean and nicely written. i dont know "why" i have to redo do it, i just do. small OCD's like that, then people have extreme cases of it...

but again all of which are NOT a form of demon possession. if you want to see what demon possession really is...watch the movie Exorcist or The Exorcism of Emily Rose. yes i know its done by hollywood, but its pretty accurate in what demon possesion looks and sounds like. if your iffy on watching those movies i DONT BLAME YOU.

my point is unless you start speaking a language you never learned, talking in vocals that aren't physically possible for you, start having body convulsions that are physically possible even if you have a disorder, or FEEL like your being controlled etc etc....

im going to assume you're not possessed.

my brother has autism and i have a general anxiety disorder and depression, but I don't believe my brother has devils inside of him, and I hope that I don't.

I dont think you have any sort of demons. All of your disorders are caused by malfunctions in the brain and can be treated, but not truly cured as of now as far as i know. You can pray about it. Prayer helps a lot with just about any situation..and if the doc gives you meds, take them. But pray mostly. My usual prayer to help me with my mental issues is something along the lines of "Lord, please guide me throughout life. Help me to live in peace. Help me to be comfortable. Help me to be happy knowing that You are alive, You are a wise and merciful God, everything that happens is for the greater good, and even if i dont know why life is the way it is, help me to be at peace, comfortable, and happy knowing that You know why. You know what will happen, and my life is in Your hands. Be with me always, in my heart, mind, and soul..." And dont simply believe in the existence of God. Believe Him. Believe what He says in His Word. Have faith in Him, and if you do these things, i can near guarantee that you will be at peace in life, despite the downs and difficulties. Through prayer, faith, and God's grace and mercy, i gain comfort,peace, and happiness throughout my life, despite everything bad. Even my fears become overcome when i meditate in prayer/concentration on the fact that my life is in God's hands and whatever happens He is there, He knows, He will fix what needs to be fixed, and everything that happens is for the greater good.
