Hi I’m also a baby witch my fiancé is suffering from something not sure what yet but it looks like it could be psychosis from depression and anxiety. I have given him a few gemstones items like bracelets and rings that all seem to just fall off of him, the rings are black
Obsidian and supposed to be unbreakable yet they just break like a fragile piece of nothing! Please advise what I could do to help him! Thanks

Can you maybe do a combination? Malachite is a stone of love and peace and shields against negative energy and psychic attacks. It also encourages emotional healing.
Obsidian, of course, is a good one, but so is hematite. It helps shield against negativity and provides inner strength. And turquoise helps to make negative energy go away, as well as depression and fatigue. Plus is a good stone for being calm.
Of course, it’s always a good idea to get a real doctor’s help too. If he’s really having problems, he might need anti-anxiety meds for a short term.
Anyhow, I hope this all helps. Sending you good energy to you both!
Oh! And I forgot to say hi! LOL! Sorry. Hi, @dorothy1! Nice to meet you!

It sounds like your husband is having a really tough time and he’s very lucky to have you there with him doing what you can to help him through his current issues 
First, I want to preface my comment with the fact that psychosis, especially when it comes from a mental health condition such as depression or anxiety, should always be followed up with a healthcare provider. This is especially true if it is a new symptom because it can point to deeper issues, medication reactions and many other things. So if he’s not followed up with some sort of mental health care provider, that is my number one piece of advice.
As far as witchcraft related things you can do to help, meditation and visualization techniques may be something that can help him. This is going to depend on the level of his psychosis and exactly what he’s experiencing. If he is experiencing auditory and visual hallucinations, then visualization and meditation should probably not be done. You’re on the right track with different gemstones to help with what’s going on. I would choose stones and crystals that promote relaxation because this could potentially help his mind calm down, and depending on the rest of his symptoms, go from there. Different stones that I might recommend include amethyst, fluorite, and obsidian.
The same could be said of spells and rituals that you do for him or on his behalf. I would focus on spells that affect the root cause of the problem and not just the psychosis. For example, if your husband struggles with depression, focus on targeting the depression. Now, this is easier said than done – as someone who has a diagnosis of major depressive disorder – because it entangles itself into every fiber of your being. So rather than trying to get rid of the depression, maybe just try to lift the fog or provide a guiding light in the darkness that he’s experiencing.
I also just wanted to provide some clarity on this statement here regarding black obsidian. You mentioned that black obsidian is supposed to be unbreakable. However, it has a rating of 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs hardness scale. This puts it about in the middle, and that means that it is actually breakable. If you think about the way obsidian is created, it’s basically a volcanic glass. It’s pretty breakable, so if it falls or is a hit against something, it’s very fragile and that does increase the risk of it breaking. I’m not sure who told you that black obsidian was unbreakable, but that’s just not true.
I wish you the best of luck with your husband’s condition

Wonderful Wednesday Dorothy,
I do not have much advice, I had a severely bi-polar daughter, it is very hard to deal with things when you don’t know what the problem is. (We did not learn about her bi-polar until she was 18). My go-to when there are issues that need to be “taken care of” (“fageddaboudit”, you know what I mean), I always fall back on the knot spell. To bind what is “attacking” your loved one. That is about all I can offer. I hope that you are able to find out the issue so that y’all will be able to deal with it.

Wow thank you so much everyone for the suggestions I intend to try all of them, I’ll be sure to post an update after!
It’s scary dealing with anything unknown it’s even more scary losing the one you love right in front of your eyes and not being able to do much to help them.
I will be taking my fiancé to a mental health doctor as soon as i can if he is willing to go.
Again thank you all for the encouraging reply’s. Be safe xoxo

The black Obsidian I was referring to was from the rock shop where I live, they make rings from the stone and I was told that the rings were made pretty strong and that they never heard of the rings breaking. I have purchased 4 of them and put them on him myself only to see it literally split in half and fall off! 1 maybe ok but after the 4th one I asked the lady who makes them if they ever break she said not to her knowledge and my fiancée must have some negative auras haunting him, shortly after hearing that I one night as he was asleep my security camera picked up some weird happenings to him, he has the tendency to fight in his sleep well it looks like he is fighting someone so he kicks and sometimes swings his arms and yells at someone, well on my camera I looked at it and you can see a shimmer move across the lens just as he is jumping and kicking! Something was obviously messing with him! It was scary! Any advice on this? Thanks

Fantastic Friday Dorothy,
I totally know where your coming from!!! My daughters bi-polar destroyed her life. (TW: drugs, death)(She abandoned her husband and 3 children, ages 7, 5 and 1, ‘cause of her bi-polar she ended up addicted to heroin) He husband died in 2021 (not Covid, but that was the “blame” / “tag”) It was a heart-attack caused by alcoholism. The kids were told it was Covid (the youngest was the one who found him in the livingroom) That still did not bring her back. Six years later she died. The kids are now orphans. Wrote this out, to let you know, it is NOT easy, and yes, I understand what you are going through. It is very, very, very difficult for us who are dealing with such people. I sooooo know how you are feeling. My love goes out to you and yours!!!

When I was diagnosed, the shrinks offered me St John’s Wort and Chamomile. Please be aware that these do not affect all people alike.
I second the idea of getting help. The ideas expressed here are simply assistants which have helped me when I needed them.
As for the fighting in his sleep, have you tried protective spells before bedtime? Is he open to casting them with you? Mirror spells cast around the room or around him can protect from external attack, but the attackers may not be outside. Daily cord cutting can help open a niche for other spells to get in and begin working. Evening meditation calms, but takes time. Setting boundaries daily can help push out negativity over time. Visualizing white light at the core of his being, radiating out can work to weaken a negative foothold situation. This will take a lot of work over some time, so be strong and take care of yourself, too. Layer as much magick as possible. The idea is to tell the attackers in no uncertain terms that they are not welcome and never will be. Desperation is a sign that it is working.
When stones break, it often means they have done all the work they can. Perhaps put fresh obsidian and maybe turquoise into a small bag he can keep in his pocket near his heart. Perhaps take him to your local mineral store and see what he seems to like. Then look up it’s properties for hints on what may be going on behind the scenes. Basil is said to burn negativity, so add a bit of the herb to the bag. Rosemary eases anger. Lavender can calm, but it might be a strong scent for work.
Has he been craving chocolate or garlic by any chance? Garlic can chase active negativity out of a body and protect- not to mention that the sulphur is healing any attacking germs. Chocolate is a healer for the sadness and passive negativity. A bit a day if he’s craving it. Celery seems to help pull stagnant stuff out. Drinking lemonade can dry out the system, making it more difficult for the attacker to work, but be careful of dehydration because it prolongs the cleanup process. Cherries are anti inflammatory, so they ease pain, if that is a factor.
Make normal chores as easy as possible during this time. Put away anything unused. Finish projects before nightfall as much as possible. Simplify. You can get things out later if you keep them neatly in storage, but the more you have out and around, the more scattered your energy will be, and you need the focus right now.
I recently went through something which may have been similar. These are some of the things I noticed which helped me. Your situation may be different, so use your best judgement.

I’m not saying you’re wrong by any means, but if the ring is even slightly too snug and your husband happened to flex his finger, that can cause a ring made out of obsidian to break. Since you had four of them break – I’m not sure if they were all the same size or not – that is definitely more interesting.
I say if you have exhausted all possible mundane causes of the obsidian rings breaking then it’s likely that there is a different reason for them not lasting very long on your husband’s finger. Some people believe that if you have a crystal or gemstone (or something similar) and it breaks, then it has either served its purpose or it’s not strong enough for the job. This is going to depend entirely on your own belief system. So if that’s the case, then I would consider trying something different. Maybe instead of jewelry that he wears, get a stone that he carries in his pocket or use a sigil to help instead of a gemstone.
There can be a few explanations for something like this happening. The first is that your husband’s energy is kind of all over the place. This would make sense if he’s dealing with some things internally and is struggling while he sleeps because that’s when our brain processes what has happened during the day. It could also be that your husband has a spiritual attachment, some sort of energy or spirit has attached itself to your husband and is, whether purposefully or not, causing issues for your husband.
Based solely on the physical manifestations while your husband is sleeping, such as the kicking legs and erratic movement, I would not ignore the potential physical, medical, or mental health causes of this behavior. While he may have a spirit attachment, he may also be going through something physically that needs attention so it doesn’t turn into something more dangerous.
I can tell that you really care about your husband and you want to do whatever you can to help him be himself again. I wish you nothing but the best as you navigate this with him
