Or anyone who has experienced this first hand? I haven't seen anyone who was demon possessed myself but I know quite a few people who have seen it first hand, specifically my pastor, my brother, and my therapist. They each have a story of dealing with someone who was possessed.

No, not personally. But my aunt (she's in Israel right now seeing where Jesus was again) told us a story of one guy who was demon possessed and she and a few people from our church went to see him. And my aunt was telling us that he was screaming and acting weird and saying that he's seeing demons and scary things and that they want him and wont quit torturing him and that he'd scream in pain and fear. She said it was pretty scary to watch. But they prayed to God for the demon to leave him and told the guy to ask Jesus for help him too. He was all better soon afterwards and I was told he began reading scripture. I wish I knew who it was because maybe he's in our church now and I would love to interview him about it. But I guess he wanted it to be in his past and not have people know since my aunt said it was confidential and refused to tell us. Shrug
Either way, I'm happy the guy is ok since he was terrified of what was happening to him.

No I haven’t seen someone possessed before as far as I know, but I do know someone who hears voices in their head that tells this person to do evil things all the time. They argue with this voice in their head pretty much every day. They ended up this way by doing meth. They were at their house doing meth and one day they started to hear someone (or some people) yelling at them from the neighbors house, they thought it was the neighbors actually yelling, and I was present when this person first started hearing the voice(s). They came and asked me if I was hearing the neighbors yelling at them and I told them that I don’t hear anyone yelling(because I didn’t hear anyone yelling ). Then as time went on I found out that they had been hearing 3 different voices in their head and that they had an individual description for each one(like three different personalities) and they all told this person to do evil things constantly or would try to convince them to think things that were not true. Over time I found out that two of the voices went away, today there is only one that pesters them. So yea, not quite a demon possession in the traditional sense. Doctors have diagnosed this person with psychosis, but the wisdom of this world is foolishness. I believe those were demons and that the one that is left is a demon who came into this persons mind via drugs.
