Mental Illness, or Demonic Possession?
Healing Elaine®: Bridging the Gap Between Medical & Spiritual®
Working quietly in person with over 2,000 unique individuals over the last decade plus has revealed to me more than I ever intended to learn or understand - namely with regard to the hidden realms.
As I describe in my article about my journey into the Catholic Faith, much of the reason for my interest in the particulars of that faith came for me - not me to them. What I mean by that is I’ve always been sensitive to the unseen realms in seemingly exaggerated format - since I was a child I could pick up on intricacies and nuances of spirits, God, evil, demons and so forth. As I became an adult it made both more and less sense at the same time, and then when I entered the realm of healing with my work I learned things I could never read about anywhere (hence my writing). When my desire to approach things in a more sanctioned / regulated way arose, and as I was diving back into the church in my adult life, I met others in the Catholic church (of all places, I thought) who understood some of what I experienced because they had “it” too. Feeling understood and supported by those in the diocese in Texas, I began to dive more deeply into lectures by exorcist priests who seemed to parrot all that I’d experienced during my ten plus years as a working healer…to my surprise, the written word of the Catholic faith from the unseen perspectives was aligning with so much that I’d experienced and expressed myself. As I always say - religion is an embodiment not an ideology, and finally my two worlds were colliding in a fascinating way.
With all that said, the greatest challenge for me thus far is finding anyone who experiences or understands to the depths I’ve learned it first hand, in person, the process a person goes through when working with them ten, twenty, fifty, one hundred or even more hours and over the course of months and years…for all of that is not just chit chat, it is full blown exorcism in many cases. And any experienced priest or exorcist priest (note I say EXPERIENCED) will tell you that it can take decades to cast out just one particular demon that has afflicted a person or their family. Hence, I am still waiting for my mentor which I’ve resolved may simply just be the big guy: God.
I began with psychotherapy at Northeastern University in Boston but quickly dropped it when I realized I’d already spent most of my life being a therapist of sorts for others, and so all I did was have fun instead. I majored in having fun. I traveled a little, I moved to my dream spot as far south as I could get, and I just partied with beautiful people and celebrities until I was about 24. I will cherish that decision for as long as I live as the life I’d lived until I did that and the the life I would come to choose after that was focused on others instead of me so much. Having the time of my life will never be a regret, even though I was still “me” in the sense of my experiences as I share them here and in my blog. Shortly after graduation and some life-altering experiences with the mental illness (or, demonization?) of those around me, I dove into books like People of the Lie by Scott Peck (also on my required reading list) which presented atheist psychotherapists who came to learn about true evil and think differently about psychotherapy. I researched Caroline Myss (famous medical intuitive) in 2003 and learned how similar we were in the ways that mattered for my soon to be public healing work. However, none of it - and having been raised in the Christian church - seemed to ALL GO TOGETHER. And this is where there is limited information, limited experience out there: people are beholden to ONE VOCATION; either 1) Priest (church) 2) Psychotherapist 3) Scientist 4) “Psychic” (don’t get me started).
I studied with a neuroscientist who was in their 70s in Manhattan during my last couple years there, and they told me that the language I have for my work and experiences is the book he was trying to write with a local priest who was his client. That statement didn’t fully click for me until this year.
I will not do 1:1 sessions forever as they are not only unsustainable but highly dangerous for me. I will spare those details here and it’s almost not worth mentioning to people who could never understand what I go through with that work, …what I go through - as even after years of working with me and beginning to scratch the surface of understanding basic demonology, it would take thousands of face to face cases and coaching and praying to even grasp the concept of something beyond simple prayer or psychology relative to how it all works. This work is a beast and there is often no amount of money that can make it worth what it has the ability to take. On the flip side, it has been the most rewarding experience of my life and has filled me with knowledge I can’t find anywhere - hence my writing which I hope will help others.
With that said, I’ve written about mental illness and demons in the past and in this article - as, after objectively meeting with people and having no “masters in psych” or divinity (no fancy paperwork makes you experienced by the way) and having a totally blank slate for what I discovered through helping people, I learned that the “energy” they wanted healed was a bridge between the demons that lived in them (extremely real) and the mental patterning that accompanied that. So, what came first? The brain chemistry / algorithm, or the demons?
The answer I will give to you is that THEY CAME AT THE SAME TIME.
Throughout every session I’ve ever done I’ve been able to track the spore origin of the person’s problem and it has been in that moment that the demon entered and organized their thought. Sure, to accommodate said injury and opening they “had” to think a certain way, and that is the part that stale psych “experts” would miss entirely as they aren’t attuned to the unseen; and conversely it is the part that so called spiritual leaders or priests or exorcists would miss if they were not experienced enough to truly intuitively witness how energy (demons, dark, light) works and enters a person as it relates to said psychology. Therefore what we have is an experience problem.
Back to the title of this article, though. It is my belief and conclusion that all mental illness is demonic possession and all demonic possession is mental illness. This of course exists in varying degrees, but it is a two part equation (one intangible, expressing itself tangibly through behaviors) to one whole entity. That’s right: mental illness / “chemical imbalance” IS demonization and looking at it any other way only attempts to solve half the problem.
As we make our way back into the second coming or even just the notion of such, some will consciously or unconsciously awaken to this truth. I’ve lived it first hand in absolutely shocking ways. It is all around us, all the time - the energy of God or Satan, informing our every thought word and action…and if you “don’t believe” then all you are left with is…behavior. To what do we attribute such?
None of this suggests forgoing personal responsibility, not in the slightest. I won’t even delve into that topic right now. This is all to say that the realm of healing, of helping people, is in such nascent stages and ruined by “intellect”. Just consider the ridiculous manufactured flu of 2020 and the unhinged “experts” whose souls were swapped out of their bodies and filled with AI instead who also convinced others of absolute poppycock.
Living in a way that experiences the depths of the unseen realms paired with a psychological understanding of them that will never leave could be considered a burden, but I believe it is our most natural and organic state. I find it troubling when people will not or can not dig deeper into understanding human nature, human interactions, and the unseen which accompanies us in ways we wish it did not.
Everything we see is a result of first, the unseen. Do you know what is driving your life, beyond your beliefs / religion / ideologies and how that is shaping the blueprint of your legacy here on earth? If you say you don’t care you’d be lying.
