Spiritual arts and exercises

Q: I have converted into Islam last Ramadhaan and I came into the fold of Islam possessesed by a jinn. I am recovering from the after effects of it and I have a hard time doing many things. Some symptoms are moving uncontrollably, seeing hallucinations, seeing images and movies in my
mind, uncontrollable thoughts, and acting as if I am still possesed by a jinn. I want to become normal/healthy again but I have 2 questions regarding
this.

  1. I used to study and practice different healing modalities in the broad spectrum of holistic medicine and Chinese medicine. I used to study/practice (not professionally) Chinese medicine, toaist energy arts, and shaminism. I'm clear on the fact shamanism is haraam but on the subject of toaist energy arts I'm not sure. I know how to do something called dragon and tiger qigong which is classified as a  medicial qigong set, but I also know that budhist high priests used to practice it. It is a means of being healthy but I don't want to do it if it is harram. A short summary of it, is that you move and and circulate energy though out your body with your mind, body, and with a specific breathing practice. It's manipulating the same human energetic system being used in acupuncture but in deeper levels and with a different medium. Are practices like this, and taichi harram?
  2. What halaal means can I do to become normal and healthy again?

Entertaining thoughts of a strange man

Q: I have a question concerning marriage. I'm a 21 year old female and I've recently met someone at a friends wedding. My parents don't want me to get married yet as I'm studying towards a degree, so I haven't told them about my interest, the man i've met also doesn't know about my interest. I refuse to get into a relationship with him as I'm aware its haraam. I am however extremely impressed with his character and feel that he would make a great spouse. My question is, Is it possible to make dua to marry this specific person? And if so what should i read?

Refraining from joining people who have unpleasant ways and behaviours

Q: I have a bit of a dilemma. I am a very sensitive and emotional person and I find it very hard to make friends. The friends I have are very loud spoken and speak to me with no respect and are rude to me, but i don't tell anyone because I don't want people thinking bad about them. But recently I feel so hurt with the way that they treat me I think bad thoughts, for example I wish bad upon them. I don't know how to stop thinking like that and I really want to stop! Example today they all ganged up on me because I told my mother that boys stay over at their house but I was not spreading rumors, I was just telling my mother because I was at their house at the time and they blame me for their parents stressing as we are studying away from home so basically I was labled as the bad one. Basically I just want to know how to react or handle their behavior and should I approach them and tell them how I feel? But they get very angry and it has to be their way so I really don't know what to do! I am also studying away from home and I do not like it and I am very unhappy. Please help me!

Being interested in a boy

Q: I am a 20 year old girl who is interested in this one boy and I really want to be with him but we can't because we have not made nikaah. His parents want us to make nikaah so it is halaal and we won't be commiting sin, but my parents don't want us to make nikkah as they think I am too young. My question is, am I allowed to make nikaah without my parents knowledge, rather than commit a sin and be in a haraam relationship? Please advise me on what I should do as my parents do not let me make my own decisions and I feel Islamically that I should make nikaah.
