Do all Catholic priests believe in demons?

Question

I've always wanted to convert to Catholicism and have attended Mass for a couple of years now. Due to recent events, I sincerely believe my family is a victim of demonic oppression right now. If I approach someone at the church I attend will they think I'm crazy? Who can I reach out to for help?

Answer

Talk to a priest. I'm Catholic and demons are a thing, but no where near as common as it was historically. Now we lean towards mental/physical health issues or other more scientific and logical explanations. If no other explanation can be found then some priests will move towards discussing demons. But, talking to a priest about this is never a bad thing as they can help you work through the problems you're having and come up with an explanation. Every priest I've ever talked to has always been very happy to sit down and discuss faith and the various aspects of it.
You could also try catechism classes which you'll need to become a Catholic. Its a two year course.

Answer

Definitely just talk to your priest. You don't have to be Catholic or trying to convert to talk to them, anyone can just drop by during office hours or make an appointment. I'm sure they'd be willing to investigate your family's problem

Answer

Agree with the others. You can go to the church office and ask to speak to a priest. Overall, yes, Catholicism believes in possession, but, these things have to be investigated and not every priest is in the order to even perform an exorcism; only certain priests do.  However, I'm wondering why you believe people in your family are possessed? Does your family have a history of mental illness?
