A Malevolent Spirit Follows Me

The malevolent spirit captured on camera in my living room as the sun sets, wearing a sinister smile.

Recently, a malevolent spirit has attached itself to me. At first, it was just a gut feeling. Then a blurry figure at the edges of my vision. Then one night, it appeared as me and hasn't left since. At first, I thought I was the only one who could see it, but it appears on camera (as seen above), and my roommates have noticed it lingering outside my bedroom door late at night.

Whenever it's around I get really exhausted, like every ounce of energy and brain function fades away. This exhaustion is relentless. I have tried going to sleep before the sun sets, changing my diet, and exercising more, but the exhaustion persists. Also, my body is sore to the bone. I play volleyball and have been getting injured more often and more seriously ever since the spirit appeared. Every joint aches to the point where it has become difficult to go upstairs or wash my hair in the shower.

I have tried interacting with the spirit, but it seems to lead nowhere. I talk to it, but it doesn't say anything back. It just stares at me with a gaping smile and cold, lifeless eyes. I'm too scared to touch it. If it can cause me physical suffering just from being near, I do not want to find out what happens when I touch it. A dark, suffocating energy surrounds it. I once threw my shoe at it and immediately my vision got grainy and an intense pressure formed in my head. I had to run out of my apartment to escape it.

At this point, I'm not sure what to do. As twisted as it is, I kind of feel bad for it. Maybe it's lonely. I imagine it like No Face from Spirited Away. I don't feel comfortable with it, but it is unfortunately growing on me.
