Soul Food
Overcoming Schizophrenia
Ever felt watched in an empty room or pinned to your bed by a fear you can’t explain? We go straight at the experiences many people whisper about—nighttime voices, shadowy figures, rising panic—and unpack how they collide with real, diagnosable symptoms like suicidal thoughts, insomnia, and depression.
You’ll hear Damien’s unscripted story: years of hearing voices, seeing frightening images, and feeling a heavy presence that robbed his sleep and sanity. He searched for help, found confusion, and almost gave up—until he discovered a community that treated his suffering seriously and offered steady support. If you or someone you love is battling night terrors, paranoia, or relentless anxiety, this conversation offers language, tools, and a next step toward rest.
If this helped, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs courage tonight, and leave a review so others can find practical hope. Need direct support right now? Call 1.888.332.4141 or visit paranormalactivitieshelp.com.

SPEAKER_06:You are not crazy! Paranormal activity series.
SPEAKER_02:Hi there, may the God of the Bible bless your life. Together once again with this episode: Paranormal Activity. For you who see strange things, for you who have the presence of presence of someone in the room, in your bedroom, while you are alone. There is nobody there. But you have this presence of demons attacking you. Like we have today the story of uh Damien. Because he suffered from this schizophrenia, he would feel like a presence or the presence of evil spirit frightened him while he was in bed. So no peace to sleep. It's like when a person uh sees stuff like that. You see, right now on your video. A person that sees shadows, they see something attacking them during the night. A strange presence. Disperser feels uh like paranoid, panic attacks. Well, let us understand more what schizophrenia is all about.
SPEAKER_06:It seems that you have started to see some negative changes in your life that you have no idea as to why. Maybe you have been experiencing hallucinations or hearing sounds that appear real to you. Stupid. Your thoughts may be disorganized, and you have no answer as to why. Paying attention to work may seem difficult, and even making a simple decision may feel overwhelming. Because of these symptoms occurring to you all at once, your employer has decided to fire you from your job. On top of all this, you have now become depressed and withdrawn and increasingly paranoid. Maybe you are going through this terrible ordeal right now and are asking yourself, why is this happening to me? Your symptoms may be something out of your control, and you were unaware of schizophrenia.
SPEAKER_02:You do need spiritual help. You do need to be set free once and for all. He looked like somebody insane, somebody that was mentally ill. Because that man he used to cut himself, he used to go to the mountains, to the tomb, he had no peace, even shekels and chains could not hold him. I want you to watch this video to understand what happened to this man, and thereafter we are gonna go into Damier's story!
SPEAKER_03:When he had come out of the boat, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, because he had often been bound with shackles and chains, and the chains had been pulled apart by him, and the shackles broken in pieces. Neither could anyone tame him, and always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones.
SPEAKER_00:It started in uh twenty thirteen. I would hear voices, noises. I would have what I would feel like the presence of spirits that would frighten me while I was laying in bed. Uh, I would see demons. Things like this, they they it brought me like depression, anxiety. In the first six months, I just looked for churches, and uh when I would tell them about these things, they sometimes they would give some kind of help, but I could sense that it was kind of awkward for them and they really didn't know how to deal with it. I prayed, God, lead me to a place that can help me with this problem. And uh one day uh I was walking down uh the street by the church, and I picked up a flyer, and it was a flyer of the universal church, and it meant it showed the things that I was suffering from, but I kept coming back because I saw the faith that that the assistants pastors passed on, and it gave me that faith that you know it didn't matter at some point I could be healed, you know. So I kept coming back, and uh eventually I did see my healing, and I and I was healed from schizophrenia. I don't have depression, anxiety. I'm not addicted to anything, so you know I'm free, I'm blessed. All the blessings that I've received here, you know, uh nothing compares to the greatest blessing, and that is receiving the Holy Spirit. So uh come to the Universal Church, give this ministry a chance, you won't regret it.
SPEAKER_02:He's now completely free, and you who have this memory loss, confusion in your minds, you sappha from this schizophrenia, we are going to pray for you right now.
