The taunting of spirits
Well, I have to shorten this a bit, as I could go on and on, but basically the story goes like this: One day, as I was sitting in my apartment, I began to hear some teenage girls talking about me throug the walls of the building. I found this strange, but stranger as I came to find they were discussing my thoughts. As time went on, I started hearing them in the shower, then at work and while doing other things. They told me they were psychics at first, and that I was psychic as well. I started hearing family and friends drop by every once in a while in my mind as well. It took me a while, but I finally realized the whole thing was a sham, and that I was being spoken to not by man, but by spirits. At that point, I addressed them as demonic, but having little faith in the idea (Christianity being abandoned due to a hypocritical upbringing), was NOT able to banish them in the name of the Lord. Their words are mostly torment, or "taunting" as they once put it, but at times they are nice, and joke around or have even encouraged me. The thing is, they are liars, and always have been, and they will NOT leave. I don't see any good here, I'm sure these spirits are unclean. Any advice? Looking for something unconventional, if possible. Thanks.

Maybe give some free advice about: Spirituality?
You are almost certainly a Schizophrenic, especially if this started while you were in you mid to late teen or early 20's. You gave a lot of people negative feedback for suggesting this but it's actually a pretty textbook example of an auditory hallucination- the most common form of hallucination.

I think you should put on headphones and listen to classical music at high volume whenever they get too loud. I hear Bach is particularly good for exorcising taunting demons. If nothing else, you will gain a good working knowledge of great symphonies that you can use to make yourself sound cultured and educated while at parties.
You might also try looking at lots and lots of pornography. It probably won't help, but you can say that it does and call it a good excuse to look at porn. And, if the demons are in fact teenage girls, it might bother them to the point where they leave (unless they're lesbian demons, in which case you might consider trying to arrange a spiritual threesome).
Here's another thought - get drunk. Maybe not all the time, but try it just once and see if it gets them drunk too. If you're lucky, they'll be the kind of demons who hate being hung over, and they'll go torment someone else.
Anyway, there are three unconventional suggestions. Good luck to all of you!

Sitting in your apartment and thinking that you hear people discussing your THOUGHTS, and not to mention you think you hear these voices that joke with you and then turn around are very mean, that is not normal. My first thought upon reading this was you have some kind of Psychiatric disorder such as Schizophrenia-Initial symptoms may include delusions and hallucinations. I would make a appointment with Mental Health asap.
EDIT: In response to your feedback... I may very well "suck" as you say but I'm quite sure that you'll find should you go to mental health and tell them the exact thing you have written, you'll be put on meds so fast your head 'll spin. Have a nice day.

I would suggest you look for something a bit more 'conventional'.
As a young teen I was sure I was telepathic. I heard voices regularly especially at calm moments like when I was about to sleep or was trying to read. Some of people I heard claimed to be dead, some said they were demons, sometimes I thought I was hearing the thoughts of family or friends or even teachers.
I'm not telepathic. I had residual schizophrenia. The belief that I was 'gifted' or had a sixth sense was part of the illness.
Disbelieve me if you will, hate me and rate me down, but what I do know beyond a shadow of a doubt was that the characters in my head, who started out as friendly and supportive, became more and more violent every day, more and more persistent and damn near constant, until I got professional diagnosis and help.
I see people on the street now, grabbing at the air, arguing loudly with figments of their imagination and I am so grateful that my friends and my doctors saved from that fate, by breaking down the delusions that had a telepathic gift and making me deal with reality.
I hope you find peace and happiness in some way. I feel I had to tell you how I found mine.
Edit: Just to clarify a bit: I never suggested 'mind-numbing' medication as you called it. I never required medication to be able to overcome the skewed perceptions I was having and I remember very well the days with I was frustrated with the world for not sharing the belief that I was experiencing something spiritual. To today however, I have a very active and questing spiritual life and very happily accept the possibility of spiritual intervention in this world. However, spiritual intervention is not what happened to me as a teen and our stories do have some surprising similarities in the way the voices and beliefs developed.
I also wanted to add, since you seem to be newish to asking questions here (or you could have deleted all the other ones, so please forgive my assumption if I am wrong) that rating a 1 for advice you simply disagree with is ratings abuse. A 1 rating is reserved for harmful or abusive advice (a deserved 1 rating should nearly always be accompanied by a report abuse from the asker, because it means the columnist did something seriously wrong). Rating everyone who doesn't give you the answer you are looking for is a good way to get yourself reported. I'm not going to do it, but sooner or later someone will, and the moderators will probably agree with them. You could probably avoid that simply by changing your ratings to 2s.
Again, Good luck.

I think its the lack of religion that always makes this happen.Be careful and dont trust them,they can lure you into doing something really bad,did you always hear them?If you didnt then mabey you were more religious before or mabey you should learn more about your religion and the other main religions mabey theyll give you an answer...islam,christianity,judism...Im positive its lack of religion thats making this happen.If you seeked help in the name of the lord mabey christianity aint what you belive in...I think you should also talk to a trusted adult about this...Try to get rid of them by other religion beilifes...what have you got to lose?i have a website about my religion if you want to learn about it if itll help and its listed on my advice coulmn if thatll help.
