From the time I was born, I've seen ghosts and other things (angel lights etc).

When I was very little (age 4ish to probably 10), it was always full figured ghosts (they are transparent looking like movies weirdly, but more of an outline of a body and light).

They would come to me and it felt like they needed my help, but I never knew what I could do to help. I was scared and just a kid.

My mom also sees ghosts, and when I came to her she said that I needed to pray and use my freewill to tell God to not let them come anymore.

She said that these ghosts were spirits that got lost on their way to the other side, and that as a child my bright light was attracting them to me- getting them confused on where to go.

So she said anytime I saw one of them, I needed to say to them to go towards the brightest light and leave me alone.

She also told me that this was a family thing that we all get (which is true, my siblings all also have it) and that we were to tell no one because it is not normal.

From age 10 to probably about 18, I didn't see anything.

I felt like my moms prayer had worked.

Maybe I was cured.

Then, there was a lot of unexpected deaths in my life.

I started seeing again, but in a half way.

I would sometimes have dreams that people that I knew that had died would come into and give me messages.

But most of the time, I would wake up screaming.

I would be in this weird half sleep half awake state- not quite awake but also not asleep.

I would scream the top of my lungs and jolt awake very quickly, sit up and gasp, and snap and point and tell the spirit to "Get out " or act like I was having normal conversations with them.

I would wake up sometimes in the middle of the night on the floor, or fighting someone or something.

There was even one time where I almost left my hotel room chasing someone out.

I didn't originally know I was seeing again until my roommate asked me why I was screaming all the time.

And then finally, I would switch off between being in the half wake half sleep state and not remembering, and sometimes remembering everything and having full conversations with the ghost inside my mind.

​I know how insane this all sounds.

I'm not a voodoo person or into the occult.

I am a normal person with a normal job.

But now, my partner and I have moved in together and I am waking HIM up now with my screaming and talking to spirit in my half wake half asleep state.

It is hard because sometimes I remember, and sometimes I don't.

So he will wake up in the morning sometimes very annoyed and angry with me because he didn't sleep because he had to hold me and tell me I'm ok.

I have seen multiple mediums, shamans', etc to try to get this issue under control.

I know this happens with kids a lot, but I am a grown woman now and this is affecting my relationship and my sleep too.

I am posting this in hopes that someone somewhere in the world has had a similar experience and knows what to do.

I have used all kinds of sages, protection prayers, etc. I just feel so defeated.

Am I truly alone in this?.
