I’m afraid i’m being followed by an entity that wants to steal my soul?

Ever since I was little I’ve had dreams and paranoia about someone following me so they can catch me and steal my soul. Recently I’ve been having these kinds of dreams every night. The fear is so strong that it stopped me from being suicidal because I was worried that an entity was making me depressed just so I could die and they could steal my soul

    You mean the Devil? Yes, Satan is an asshole, that's why he was kicked out of Heaven. You should listen to Ummitsstillme, but it would also help to learn the prayer of St Michael the Archangel.

    St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle;
    be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
    May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
    and do you, O prince of the heavenly host,
    by the power of God,
    thrust into hell Satan and the other evil spirits
    who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.
    Amen.

      Oh RoseIsabella, I really thought you were far too intelligent to believe in such nonsense!

        Faith in a Higher Power is not a sign of low intelligence. There are countless great intellectual minds who are people of faith. I'll tell you what, you don't give me crap about being a follower of Christ, and I won't give you crap about being an atheist. Seems like a fair trade to me.

          Should a mediator become necessary for the two of you, my Agnostic viewpoints might offer a middle ground to which you both could relate. I am personally sympathetic to philosophers Kant, Nietzsche, and Schopenhauer. These guys do not totally dismiss theism.

            My first love used to have an answering machine message that said, "God is dead, but so is Nietzsche; Leave a message".

    It is more common than people realize. There are malevolent entities, active demons all around us. Clutch your rosary beads tight at night, keep some holy water in a spray bottle handy, and for God's sake (and your own) pray constantly.

    Audibally expel and dismiss those demons in the name of the one true savior Jesus Christ and his virgin mother Mary.

    You also should focus on other ways to overcome your depression and suicidal thoughts. The first step is talking to someone; getting counseling. For some medication helps, not so much for others. It is usually best to take a multifaceted approach.

      What a load of nonsense, in fact very dangerous nonsense, because you are validating OP's delusions.

    Sounds like a religious delusion. Antipsychotic meds may be of help.

    SANTA DOWN! I think I heard something like that once on an elf radio scanner.

    If you are under the age of 40 then you've already sold your soul to the mass media machine, so you have nothing to worry about.
