I don't know yalls beliefs. I dont want to start any thing that will be negative here. Ive been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder along some other mental health problems. But while though i here voices in my head. Ive begone to think they are demons. Sorry if it sounds crazy. It gets worse at night and when i am trying to sleep which is a pain for me to do any ways. Most of the time they ask for my soul and i keep telling them no. But what gets me annoyed most is they keep saying over and over. we are comeing for you. Sometimes when this happens odd things happen around me. My heart starts beating really fast and i feel sick. I aslo feel bad energy around me like some one is watching me. Please forgive me if this all sounds crazy i dont know where else to ask this. I have been called crazy many times because i can feel these things. I see things shadows and sometimes beings that appear and disappear really quick. When ever i try to lay to sleep i here voices not the ones in my head but around me. People or beings talking in some language i cant make out. I feel them and to be trueful it dose scare me. Lately i have been feeling something touch me and or lay in my bed. I sleep under my covers but leave enough open so i can breath. But i dont know what to do. I believe in demons and bad spirits and energy and i am not trying to force my beliefs on any one. But to my question could this be some evil spirit are demon are is my symptoms getting worse? I am on depression meds and some other ones but none that i know of for my schizoaffective disorder. Thank you guys and sorry for the long post.

Get to a doctor, tell him your story and see if you need meds for this. Above all, see a doctor asap.

Please do. I don't believe in the occult, but regardless of that, this is real to you. And if it keeps getting worse there's a very real possibility that you or someone else could end up seriously hurt. So you absolutely should seek some medical help for this. But to get proper help, you need to tell them everything.
Did you have these problems before you started the medication?

No need to go into detail. My brother suffers from a mental illness as well, but he's now doing okay after finally finding the right combination of meds. This is key. Once you get the right mix of meds, you should see a world of difference, but this takes time. Don't let yourself be one of those that falls through the cracks in the system. Seek help, demand help.
Are you in your early 20s? For that kind of stuff, you have to find a doctor that will care. It's normal to see a few and then choose who doesn't just want to nod and prescribe. It's time to stop treating doctors like saviours and magicians. They're humans with a job to do. Start shopping!

It might not be possible to relocate, just to change your surroundings and your entourage, but start thinking about maybe visiting family. I like the occult and stuff, but it's not something that takes over your life like this.

i do not practice the occult. i live with my grandmother and the only time i go out is when she needs me to go with her to the store. i dont have friends. but i rather not go into any more detail i just wanted to ask the question and to have a chat. thank you guys for taking the time to reply it means a lot to me. the option of moving is not possible at this time one no money and second i cant leave my grandmother she needs some one to take care of her. i have seen many doctors in my short life time i am 23 right now but none seems to care and i am about to just give up. i dont see any future for me. i have no dreams any more. im not gonna off my self any time soon. but i just feel like im always going to be this way. again thanks guys and i am sorry for the question
Yeah, that's the age problems usually start up. I think you should look at your life and figure out what you want. It will look out of reach right now, but as you look for doctors, therapists and maybe a group, you'll be able to see that other people have to deal with serious problems too. It's great that you take care of your grandma, but you also need to have a reason to go on for yourself.
Regardless of the explanation, the most important thing is that you take some action to help yourself. If psychiatric consult specifically a psychiatric doctor. If demonic consult a person of faith you trust. You don't have to deal with this alone. Take some action, anything... just make sure to do something.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor able to diagnosis mental disorders. What you describe about your hallucinations becoming more severe at night as you lay in bed is textbook classic for Schizophrenic disorders. The best control is to take antipsychotic medications (antidepressants alone will not control hallucinations); however some people may continue to have hallucinations as baseline. There's no perfect solution but I have heard patients tell me that distraction works (listen to music, occupy yourself) or that by focusing on a focal point in your room, maybe something visual but safe/comforting it can help you filter out the voices. Hallucinations can be tactile in some cases where people perceive touch, breathing, bugs, etc that aren't there. For Schizophrenia 66% of people will improve and live normal lives with the help of medications. The older you are when symptoms start, the better your prognosis (typical onset is in early 20s).

Even psychiatric drugs take time, the doctor prescribed what is typically ideal but everyone is different (or sometimes dose needs to be gradually increased). It can take months for peak effectiveness, things will get better if you work with a mental health trained doctor on a regular basis and discuss any concerns you have about potential medications.

You have some insight this might be based on mental health and that's a start, the possibility of this being demonic is less likely - but if you're not well it may be hard to filter out spiritual explanations so getting the opinion of a credible person you trust could be helpful.
Call you doctor first thing in the morning.

dude next time you think about giving up i am gonna come in your dream and slap you. Listen to others and try to get the right meds and of all the things in the world STAY STRONG, next time you see those fuckers at night show them the finger, fight fear and depression, i know its way easier for me to say it, then for you to do it. But you have to. Life is a gift bro. live
