I found this article on the 'net and found it interesting.

By the time consultant psychiatrist Dr Alan Sanderson began treating Peter for 'demonic possession' his life had already fallen apart.

Peter Johnson, a 50-year-old career civil servant, had once been a model citizen. He lived a quiet middle-class life in South East England. He worked hard, loved gardening and adored his wife Joan. There was nothing unusual in his life in any way.

But then came Askinra - a 'demon' that ate into his soul and took over his life.

"It was as if I had an alien presence living inside my body," says Peter. "When it was fully active it penetrated and permeated my entire body, including my brain."

Peter first became aware of Askinra's presence during his dreams. A dark forbidding entity would enter his body and seize control. At first, Peter ignored the recurring nightmares but eventually they began spilling over into his daily life.

Blistering headaches made his life intolerable. Uncontrollably dizzy spells and bouts of narcolepsy swept over him without warning. These were bad enough - but then came the hallucinations. In these, Peter took a backseat as another spirit gained increasing control over his life.

"I thought I was going mad," he says.

At around this time, his wife began noticing dramatic swings in behaviour. Peter embarked on a series of affairs and his emotions alternated between ravenous lust and the depths of despair. His body began falling apart too. Bouts of uncontrollable retching and diarrhea seized his body, his temperature fluctuated wildly and his joints were wracked with pain.

Peter was repeatedly hospitalised but he appeared to be suffering from no known physical ailment. Eventually he was referred to Dr Alan Sanderson, a highly respected consultant psychiatrist with a powerful interest in the esoteric. Dr Sanderson had seen such cases before and quickly diagnosed "spirit attachment" - or possession.

"It's much more common than people think," says Dr Sanderson, a member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. "If you use a Ouiji board, or ask spirits to come through to our side, then one just might attach to you."

Interesting that he sought a psychiatrist and not a priest or someone who works with demons and alleged possessions. The link is bad, though, so can you tell me what year this took place?

sorry, here is the URL:

Have you've seen the two-faced cat?
I know it has nothing to do with this topic... but it's awsome!

pretty good story, but did the ghost leave him in the end? it didn't show..

I found another story about a possession which I find very interesting.
http://worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE...mp;pageId=58835
The above is a documented case by a New York Psychiatrist and a team of Nuns and Priests who performed the exorcism.
I am hoping a Psychiatrist associated with such a prestigious medical facility will help people to accept the reality of these things, but you be the judge.

I will add a link here to a true story which you might like to read.

umm... ahem.. yes, well... hmmm

Thanks Rosemary, for that interesting reading. Did you have any interaction with the Dr before his death?

I knew him for years before he died, and he was a very handsome man and kind to everyone and although he told me I was his favorite I knew he was married and one day in the Mid seventies I told him I was not going to continue with the kissy face with him and I left town with another man.

Eventually I came back and paid him a visit one day and I said to him do you have a circulation problem?

He got angry and I said I believe you have a heart problem.

I then left his office and about a month or so later at the age of 59 he dropped dead of a heart attack.

Upon meeting up with my three realtives he came here to my home for a visit and they began to behave as Evil Spirits trying to control me so I prayed for God and Jesus to save me and soon several guides appeared to give me the strength to deal with them and Dr.P. got jealous of the Guides and tried to force me to send them away and when I wouldn't do that he and my three realtives entered my body and said they would try to kill me unless I sent them away but of course I couldn't do that.

Now I am trying tog et them to leave my body and see if anyone can destroy them as they have been told all these years but of course they are too frightened now to leave and I can't find an Exorcist to help me or prove one way or another what happens to spirits who do this to humans and so for now they are research rats and only when they leave will I know for sure what if anything happens to them or where they go when they leave my body.

I am no longer afraid of them but they do still cause me pain and suffering but still I must get them out to see where they go and what happens to the lab rats they have become.

When I get them out of my body I will write an update so we all know how these possessions end.

Keep us posted Rosemary.

Yes, please. I read the stories on the links you gave us and I must say, I'd never be as strong as you are. Good luck and God bless.

I will keep everyone posted because to me now this is a matter of how can I get them out and or can anyone get them out.

I wish I could find a Deliverance Minister or Priest to prove one way or the other what really happens when an Exocist gets into a situation like this but no one has come forward although I have had lots of promises.

Although one Guide claims if they are inside my body when it dies they will be immediately destroyed when they leave and there is way to prove the truth of this because at that point in time I would not be here to tell the world if this is true or not and so I will just have to trust him that this is true since he is the one who can show me death in the future and Predict Earthquakes and all sorts of things that come to pass.

In the meantime each day of my life is a violent struggle.
I went to church last night and tried to bring them out of my body by telling them, if its true what they say they are too frightened now to leave my body surely they could come out in church and feel safe because I know no harm would come to them there then after that what they do and where they go is of no consequence to me.

But they refused to leave and only got meaner.
One night as I slept I saw a huge snake coming out of my body that was like a large boa constrictor and it made its way to the door and I quickly opened the screen and it slithered out.
One of the guides says I have to be persistant and keep talking to them until they come out and leave my body and the house.

Hence why I tried to talk them out at church and I will keep trying until they either come out at church where they feel safe or until they leave my body here at the house and if they so choose then can then prove one way or the other what they can get away with.

I am asking them now to get out of my body and hang around watching soap operas and push the button and challenge the Guide who claims to have the power to destroy them and force him to prove it for Paranormal Research then we will know beyond a shadow of a doubt how these possession problems are finally solved.

They of course are much too chicken to do that so that is why I am telling them their only choice if they are afraid of this Guide is for them to come out at church hoping he won't touch them there until they get their act together.
They want to frighten everyone of the Spirit World but I personally can find few people who have my problem and that is why I believe they will be dealt with one way or the other when they leave this body and that is why they are so frightened now of what may eventually happen to them for their behavior.
