WOW! Momentary! I've had the exact same experiences! Even with the getting out of being raped part! I used to be homeless in a very bad city and in a very bad part of town. . .and even though I was close to being raped or killed many times (being in that type of town and homeless, that's to be expected) but I never was because people were terrified of me. And I'm just a tiny little thing. It always amazed me, because there's really no reason I should be alive now. . .but I am because of that. And the eyes thing, too! Only people swear mine glow green and my face looked like it changes and I look like I have fangs. The fang thing could be explained, because I really do just have naturally sharp teeth. . .It must be something about the shear ferocity some of us experience when we get mad. . . it must just hit a switch in people and make them see you as the most frightening thing they could imagine. I never did it just for the hell of it. . .only when my survival was threatened or when someone really pissed me off. For me, I believe that animal instincts just really kick in and some people can be more animal than others. . .because I'd get quicker, stronger, and just rip and shred with my teeth and nails like a wild animal (I'd find myself going straight for the jugular without even being aware of it). I never met anyone else who had a story similar to mine. . .I always felt like a freak. . .well, I still do, but a freak with good company at least.

How funny, because I just posted something about it on another thread when I was explaining about Berserkers. . .and I was thinking, as I typed it, that I probably would have fit right in with those guys. . . Of course, now that I'm in a comfortable life in a place where crime is virtually unheard of, I find my "skills" aren't really necessary any more. lmao. I never thought I was possessed by a demon though. . .I'm sure everyone else did. . .but the only thing I was possessed by was my anger. . .and, well. . .since I do practice a Native American religion, I do believe in totem animals, and I always liked to think mine was on my side too. Sort of explained the green eye glowing and the face I supposedly "took on". . .but I'm not above thinking the most likely explanation was psychological. :innocent:

LOL!! This sounds like my old self. I had so many people, family members and strangers convinced I was a witch or demon possessed, that I almost believed it myself. My freakishness, violence and insanity have gotten me out getting raped on sex different occasions (even when 5 young men tried to violate me once). They claimed my face took on a mask like appearance and completely changed. If i looked at children that way they would scream. (I don't do this anymore). You could tell only superstitious people believed. Had they been Atheists they certainly would have laughed at me or had me locked up in the asylum. Different people even claimed I turned into a serpent at night, others claimed I transformed into a lizard, or my ex who claimed my eyes glowed red in the dark one night(my ex actually jumped out of a two story builing out of fear on this night). My mom would pace in front of my bed at night out of fear or keep a knife under her bed, she kicked me out. It's sick but i got off on scaring people, but it saved my life. I think its projecting something onto people, and believing it yourself almost. Almost like a form of hypnotism. When I watch those possession videos I have to laugh. they aren't even scary. Whats scary is that people believe it.


It is the matter, which can be sexually related. That girl (I really did not want to elaborate before as it is not my own private thing) was sexually molested by her own uncle [etc]

*SNIP*

She got as far as having a homosexual boyfriend, whom she could afford to sleep with, feeling "safe", in all other cases she had to resort to [other means], as otherwise she was losing this sense of "control". Poor child, in my view - but a witch the same time. Currently she is still there, this is probably for life. She cannot even force herself to get in a car, driven by a male.

Although it was all more or less presented appropriately, I just feel you shared a little *too* much there, Marabod, so I "condensed" your post down a bit, as some of it could have been entirely left out or implied with broad, generic terms. Already there are a couple of mentions of subjects that are questionable for a general family forum, so I'm trying to keep this thread somewhat "scrubbed".

I never used my my teeth and nails. I punch and mostly kick (men), like they do in martial arts, it comes naturally, in that I'm inclined to kick. I did take some martial arts and it came naturally right away.(naughty ninja comes to mind) LOL I only had to use violence twice ( I think) in these attempted rapes. When i was 18 some guy drove me up unto a hill to a cemetary to have his way with me. He then tried to have his way with me in the front seat. I had my boots on and kicked his face bloody, he could'nt do anything with me and told me to get out of the car "b**ch" and pushed me out, I was so pumped up and scared (but pleased in a perverse way, that's why I was insane I think) that I ripped his car door off its hinges completely as soon as i got out, and I was holding it over my head like some gorilla (I have to laugh now when i think about it) screaming at him. I can change my voice to sound like a man's voice (I practiced this since being a kid), and as you can imagine totally freaked!! He panicked so much while driving away that he couldn't drive in a straight line and the car spun around twice from accelarating too fast at take off, it was snowy, dark and icy too. Before that this guy kept on insisting on giving me a ride because it was so icy cold that night and seemd genuinely nice and harmless. He was pretty small in bone structure and size also. So I wasn't afraid. Stupid me. And its really creepy that he drove me to a cemetery. Odd. I was frozen blue by the time I got home that night. I'm tall 5'9" but I was a total bone, small frame, almost anorexic looking.

It is a beautiful trait in the lovers character, that they think no evil of the object loved.

Was it from the same catholic priest that staged them and took over 3 million and was found out to be a fraud and jailed??

Are there any actual documented cases of possession that couldn't be explained away as say a psychological disorder? And if there has been in your opinion, What would make a person vulnerable to being possessed? I would like some christians to weigh in on this. Personally i'm an agnostic but i do find the subject interesting.


Hi all, I am a new member of forum. Would a newcomer be warmly welcome here? Good day you guys!!!

:lol:

The most recent case I had was a couple summers ago. I had some friends over and they were passed out, and I guess this guy made the assumption that I had drank as much as they had and that I was passed out as well. . .And he tried to mess with me, and after a few warnings, he still persisted, so I kicked him so hard in the jaw it knocked his contacts out. I think that was the only time I actually kicked someone. I took some martial arts as well when I was younger, but, for some reason, the only thing that comes into play when I get into that state just resembles a wild animal. :innocent: Its funny how those of us that don't look like we could defend ourselves actually can when it comes down to it! lol
