Was I nearly possessed?

I had a terrible dream last night, I saw a demon face which was circular with black eyes and as soon as I saw it I heard screaming in my ears, it was so loud it hurt. I had to shake myself to wake up, and I as I was trying to wake up my jaw was swinging?? I woke up breathless and terrified. As soon as I woke up I said ‘leave’ and ‘power of Christ compells you’ and every time I said it, I had shivers that ran through my whole body, once I said it enough the shivers stopped. Was I just nearly possessed? If it helps it’s 3:00am when it happened, on the dot. And I sleep infront of a mirror….

Wtf does this mean (it’s too specific to not have a meaning)

I just woke up from this dream where i was in a donut shop and someone comes along and puts their donuts in my bag of donuts and i’m like wtf and they’re like these donuts are shit don’t buy them so i eat one of my donuts and it’s all stale and flavourless then this man puts a thick ass beam of selenite that’s got bites taken out of it wrapped in some tissue paper and he’s like this is for you :) WTF DOES IT MEAN IF YOU DREAM OF A HALF EATEN SELENITE BEAM.

anyway this man then went on to explain that the person working in the donut shop is a horrible person because they terrorised his village?

then my dream cut away to visuals of what this bloke was saying. some horrifying imagery of a decomposed human with black eyes and sharp teeth still alive trying to kill people? idk it’s a dream it didn’t make too much sense but it was so vivid, i couldn’t wake up 🥲 but my question is what does it mean having a half ate selenite beam in a dream?

Waking Dream Experience.

I come from a family of healers and sensitives so I have had paranormal and supernatural experiences all my life and a healthy respect for the spiritual world, (which my Irish Granny taught all us kids ) is all. around us constantly wherever we go. I have never had any experiences with a black eyes child/children before (I don't even know if it was that), but it's the nearest that it might be.

It was about 7.30 am, I had gone back to bed to catch up on sleep after getting up with my husband and seeing him off to work. I was just drifting off to sleep again with my eyes lightly closed when the voice of my deceased Grandmother said clear as a bell "Be careful Pet" (I have heard Gran many times before so the only thing that made me uneasy was what I had to be careful of!).

Mentally still very aware of Gran's warning, but reassured that my "Guardian Angel" was around me I settled back down again. Again my eyes were lightly closed when I heard a light tap on the bedroom window. (We live in a council bungalow, our small paved back garden is blocked off from the neighbours either side and our bedroom is directly inside it to save room.) Telepathically, I could see through the window and curtains a small, still figure standing pressed up against the window,

Gran's warning resonated with me and without saying the words out loud I said in my mind as forcefully as possible. "You are not welcome here go away, stay away! "

I really don't remember much more after that until I woke up around 9.30 am.

Later that day I did smudge the home again, I had already smudged the bungalow that month (my Cousins and I have always smudged our homes every month as Gran did, as it banishes negative energy as well as unwanted spirits.)

I have always thought of this as a kind of waking dream, but there is a little doubt in my mind and I'm thankful as ever to my Gran for her warning.

evil sesame street characters tried to kill me. (GRAPHIC)

this is disturbing and i had this when i was 4 so dont blame me

​

(dream) i was sitting in the livingroom and then theres a knock on the door. my mom goes to get it, but then i hear a scream and then a bat hitting someone. i sprint to the front door and big bird is there! It has one red eye and one black eye, he has a big baseball bat in his hand. Blood all over him. (this is the part where it scarred me.. haha..) He then proceeds to whack my mom to death and blood started going everywhere. I run to the kitchen and i grab the biggest knife i could find. i come back and right when i come back, my moms head starts bleeding and her brain spews.. out.. I get so enraged that i start stabbing big bird again and again and again! I stabbed him about i would say 16 times before he fell to his knees and bleeds to death. Apparently, My older sister (10) called 911. I look down one more time at big bird and i grab his bat.. And i crack his skull open. 911 arrives and i run away without them noticing. Then, I made the biggest mistake ever. i f o r g o t m y k n i f e ! But i cant go back. I see someone running at me from behind and when they come closer it is my sister. She said she had to kill the police cause they thought she was the murderer. Someone grabs me out of the blue. It was not my sister, not my mom, it was ELMO! but his eye had fallen out and his only eye was red. he had a big knife in his hand and he stabs me. I scream so loud. Elmo walks away while laughing. My sister runs up to me and tries to help but there was blood all over the sidewalk and i was bleeding at a drastic rate. There was nothing she could do so she says "Goodbye, Little Brother" And she (somehow???) picked up a bat from the ground, and smacked me 5 times before i woke up, sweating, my head hurt, i felt like vomiting, and my stomach hurt.

I Dreamt of Almost Killing Myself, But Something Happened

For Context: this dream (which I never have) is a Nightmare with a good ending. I also want to note I am a survivor of 3 suicide attempts. I really shouldn't be alive.

The dream started with being in a classroom and this girl came up but like on her hands and feet all feral like. Super skinny, feral positioned, blonde hair scraggly with sharp teeth and leaped from desk to desk. I seemed ti be the only one who noticed as she jumped from desk to desk antagonizing students who didnt see her. She started screeching super loud. I muttered "ugh omg shut up".

She slowly turned her head to me and thats when I noticed her eyes were black. She crawled on the desks slowly and like the woman from the grudge. Now the classroom was empty. I then realized i was the only one who saw her and she was looking for someone who did. Now she was in my face and all i did was look down. She lifted my chin up with boney fingers and in a demonic voice said "you know we have a 5 year old son and he always loved me first". I looked down suddenly feeling that pain of heart break in stomach. I Said nothing. Didnt move. I now realized who she was so when I looked up She was now the girl my ex cheated on me with. She smiled and i staid solumm. She got mad that I wasnt getting upset. She yelled "WHY ARENT YOU ANGRY." I looked up with tears forming and said "It is a different feeling when you learn the love of your life was with someone else."

Her face realized something. She looked liked she was going to cry. I know why. But then suddenly she was back into the weird girl again, screeched, and ran away. The room was empty and flooding. I went outside and it was raining with thunder. People ran but i saw a puddle in the parking lot turn into the ocean.

I said outloud "I belong there". I waded into the water I felt it, i felt the rain. i knew i was going to kill myself. I could feel the fear leave, like it does. It felt so good in the water. Like it was meant to be. I got to my upper waste when a man on a boat came by. He had shaved black hair, small spike gadges, and pukah shells. The rain stopped but the sky was still grey.

"Hey there. Watcha doin?" He said. "Im not sure" I said. He smiled and said "well i could use your help saving more, they're lost in this storm, like you". Confused, he then pulled me into his boat and there were small seal pups everywhere. "They lost their mothers. They dont understand how to survive without someone to show them. Will you help me?"he asked. I said of course and the rest of the dream we went through the outer shores pulling in seals into the boat. I held the ones crying for there mothers until they looked at me and felt safe. The man did the same and sat with me. He took my hand and said,

"Survivors need to help those still surviving. It's really only when the Survivors do this, that they realized they themselves have finally survived."

And I woke up
