It's a silly fear I'm embarrassed to admit… I'm afraid of demons and evil spirits. It's really embarising,I practice white magic and am an altar server! But they haunt my worst nightmares and cause me panic attacks. I'd say what I'm afraid of is being hurt by them. I know God is much more powerful, but for some reason I'm still scared. I really feel I need to get rid of this, or it'll rule my life, it's the fear that makes me bite my nails, and I have a crucifix over my bed, pray the rosary when I get demon dreams. They all lead to nothing. I must eliminate this. How can I overcome this fear without telling anyone? Please, I'm ashamed of it. I once tried to hint it to my mom, and she laughed telling me it was silly. (link)

Since you've mentioned being an alter server and praying the rosary, I'm going to guess you may be Catholic. Whether this is accurate or not, I agree with Twist that you cannot serve two masters and attempting to relieve your distress through Christianity in addition to white magic isn't likely to produce the results you are seeking. My advice: If you are Catholic, see a priest. If you're embarrassed, see a priest who doesn't know you at a parish other than your own. If you belong to another Christian denomonation, ask a pastor for help. Tryng to fix this on your own (even with help from above) without some earthly spiritual guidance will likely prolong your suffering. DO NOT allow shame or embarrassment to stop you from seeking help - they ARE the demons and evil spirits you fear. If you conques these, you will have already gained the upper hand in the battle. I pray you find Peace and Joy!
