Is demon possession ACTUALLY real?
I was just done watching a video of people getting possessed. Buuttttt. It didn't look like they were possessed. Like there was this video of this mentally ill guy who was said to be possessed (it didn't look like he was possessed. It looked like he was mentally ill. Like me). And there was a video of this girl who was cutting herself. And she was bleeding out of mouth and body. It kinda looked like she was possessed. It was at a train strain. And there was this old video over 40 years old. About a guy who had a grougey voice. And roared. It was scary. He cut his neck. But there was no blood. But the rest of the videos of people being possessed didn't look like they possessed. Some of them looked like they were mentally ill, dramatic or bad actors. I'm really confused.
I'm obsessing over this cause a year ago I had a drug withdrawal. And I had a fear I was being possessed. And it gave me a repeated thought that wouldn't go away. Which was scary. I remember I was laying on the floor and I felt like my bed sheet was moving. And there was a razor blade there (Or it was probably there before idk).
All I want to know. Is it real? Can someone who's a professional tell me? Anyone who knows about this stuff?
And please don't involve god in this.

No, it's not. You had a drug withdrawal, which can be very similar to a psychotic episode. Consider this: People have been believing in various supernatural beings, psychics and magic for over 150,000 years of human existence, and in all that time there has not been one demonstration or verifiable piece of evidence of anything either supernatural, spiritual, magic, or psychic. No elves, vampires, unicorns, demons, alien kidnappers, werewolves, fairies, ESP, zombies, power crystals, voodoo, fortune-telling, seers, angels, mermaids, wizards, sins, flying reindeer, dryads, nyads, souls, numerology, astrology, working Ouija boards, witches, reincarnation, astral projection, spells, dwarves, pixies, spirits, dragons, ghosts, goblins, leprechauns or gods. Not ONE, in over 150,000 YEARS. Consider that, and consider what it probably means.

Demon possession can be real, because the Bible says that Jesus and His disciples casted our demons and delivered people. Also, the demons were terribly afraid when they saw Jesus.
Mark 3:11 - And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.
James 2:19 - Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
Matthew 12:43-45 - When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.
Matthew 12:22 - Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.
Matthew 10:1 - And when he had called unto [him] his twelve disciples, he gave them power [against] unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.

Sorry, can't mention demons without God.
There are many views. I've witnessed demon possession...once for sure, maybe another one?
The fact you don't want want God involved is telling. Demons hate God.
But there's oppression, too. Online, there's more. I doubt it's ACTING, but who knows? So much is strange. What I saw was 100%. Not pleasant.

No. There is no evidence for demons in any shape or form. Possession was a term given to people who were mentally ill before mental illness was understood. The only people who worry about possession are those to whom others have lied about it. Teaching children such nonsense is a form of child abuse.
