any proof that people are really possessed by demons from hell and not just medical problems?

I have heard many claims of casting out demons, and seeing it done. However, why is it that only the Catholic Church can produce proof of these exorcisms (video, audio, eye-witness accounts, etc.)? The fact is that only the Church which carries-on the ministry of Jesus Christ has power over demons, as He did during His earthly ministry.
Yes, demon possession and exorcism are real. It is the scariest thing on earth. There have been a few good documentaries on the subject (one by the Discovery Channel, including Vatican video footage). Don't believe anything in the movies; the little bit of truth that is present is always clouded by a mountain of fiction.
Suggested Reading: the true story that 'The Exorcist' was based on - much scarier than the movie (actually happened to a little boy, not a girl, through playing with an Ouija board). Also the true story that 'The Exorcism of Emily Rose' was based on - scariest thing I ever read (actually happened in Germany). Both of these stories can be found on the Internet.

Exorcism is real, demons to possess people.
Medical problems as well as demon possession can be cured by the blood and Jesus and the power of His Name.

Demon possessin is rare. What one must watch out for is an obsession. When a lost soul attaches itself to a human.
Also, the jinn, as taught by shamans, are sometimes elemental spirits. They do not have a conscience as we do. And if insulted, will take action toward a human being. And make one ill.
Have respect!

Ive sat in on deliverance ministry and seen plenty to convince me its real. If it were a mental probably, the person wouldn't leave the session completely changed.

No proof. Even the Catholic church has abandoned their exorcism squad.

No, sounds like Linda Blair got to you a little bit. It did happen in Israel though if you search the bible, you'll see it happened there quite a bit; documented recordings of them in the books that Matthew wrote and Mark too. (Even Luke)
Christ died FOR your sins by shedding God's perfect blood as a sacrifice, a substitute for me and for you and for ALL. He willingly laid down his life and allowed himself to be crucified to a cross.
Believe in his shed blood as a once and final payment for your sin debt unto God, and put NO trust nor faith in...
...your "good deeds", best efforts, deep thoughts, pastor's teachings nor preists' homily's, religion(s) or religious dogma, world or personal circumstances, communion wafers, water baptism, philosophy, lifestyle, education, evolution, your senses, church attendance, karma, religious attitudes, feelings, family traditions, supposed "holy or religious saving" laws or ordinances, self serving prayers, society, other people's opinions,etc.
Christ alone went in your place as your substitute to pay for the sins you've already done, the one's you're currently doing, and all that you'll do in the future. The only way to be made perfect is to be in Christ.
It's nothing experienced nor felt, but known by reading what the scriptures say in the bible, the word of God.
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved! (Acts 16:31) God will judge you to be whole and sinless in his eyes, imputing Christ's righteousness unto you; Christ's faith unto you; and you in Christ.

Yeah man!! I KNOW from EXPERIENCE demons exist. Saw one come out of a roommate! But, be clear you know. Jesus said that in that day, many will come saying, "ICas out demons in your name. But, you did not forgive your brother his sins, hoow can the Father which is in Heaven, forgive you your sins?"

None whatsoever.
Because demons, like angels, god, leprechauns and fairies are imaginary creatures. Nothing more.
