This has happened to me and it is very scary feeling. At first I was unaware that anyone was influencing me but I got help from a few psychics and they all said the same thing. The person that was trying to "destroy" me was described as "evil", interesting because alot of these psychics don't beleive a person can be completely evil. It took me nearly a month of mental conditioning, prayer, various soul strengthening rituals and alot of reversal spells to get myself back on track and at the end of it I felt as though I had fought WW1 all by myself and it took another month for me to completely regain my strength and previous mental state. The really messed up thing is that when these sorts of things happen, most people just think you are plain crazy and it isn't exactly unreasonable for them to think that.

It is all about the energy.  How and what did you invite into your energy?  

While I don't like to believe there is evil, I have felt it in connection with an artifact from negative rituals.  If we believe in ultimate good, there must be ultimate bad - opposites exist.

Sometimes the ego becomes too powerful.  It gets more power than we ever intended it to have.  When someone tries to take over another, it is the ego, looking for fulfillment.  Fill a void or lack.  Numb a pain.  

I agree, it cannot be done, unless we allow it, or invite it in.  Always hold positive energy about yourself, and others.

I agree, I beleive that the person who was affecting me was only able to do so because I was unaware that this was going on and I was also in a really bad situation which weakened me spiritually. I'm naturally a very positive quirky person, even in bad situations but I found myself feeling very depressed and it got to the point where I wanted to just die for no explicable reason, it was bewildering. I myself never beleived that evil really exists and still don't like to beleive it but I have proof, I guess. It is a very disheartening thought honestly. Especially the fact that the person who did this (a very experienced priestess in afro-carribean magic) was doing so without having any valid reason other than jealousy, from what I gathered.  :( Do people really live their lives like that? Hating for no reason?

Yes, Ammo.  I believe they do.  Their ego is totally in control, not their spirituality.

Where you hold your thought, you create your reality.   A good lesson is to ALWAYS hold positive thought about you.  Even when you feel 'depressed', imagine yourself wrapped in a cocoon of pink light of love and protection.

Stay strong.
