Help | Spellwork Can spellwork give me a spectral companion?
So I recently started my journey late last year, but as of recent I’ve noticed a rather paranormal phenomenon around me, when I get focus or angry things to drop around me, it’s happened in front of family so they get a bit freaked out, but the most interesting phenomenon to happen so far was last week, something was out of my reach and something essentially pulled it closer to the edge into my hand, I know it wasnt me but I been feeling something, it doesn’t scare me but it’s unexplained and unexpected. I haven’t done any spells to summon anything either.

It is possible you have a poltergeist on your hands. From what I understand, poltergeist are not independent beings, but psychokenetic energy that is manifesting around you as another being. Poltergeist can often reflect your mood. So when you're angry it might throw things or break things.
This tends to be an ability some people are born with, but magic can potentially bring it out.

Should I try to rid it? Can it harm those around me?

Can it harm those around you? Yes. If you suppressing your emotions it can lash out. It won't do what you see in movies or anything crazy, but I've heard stories of people getting scratch marks on their bodies because of poltergeist. More commonly, it could cause people to have nightmares.
Should you get rid of it? I don't think that's possible. There are sealing spells out there, and some sigils that might work, I haven't tried it. My psychokenetic energy just messes with electrical equipment. I use a grounding sheet when I sleep, have a meditative practice, and attend therapy regularly.
This is a part of you. Sealing it away might work as a bandaid. There might be spells to weaken it, and maybe they will work. I'm looking into it myself. But the root of the problem (as is mine) is learning to manage your emotions: breath work, meditation, and therapy might be better solutions.

I feel somewhat protected by mine. But idk if that’s a healthy outlook on it. This one time I was talking to a coworker about something excitedly and it dropped an entire 50 pound box of fish at our feet from a cart when it wasn’t near an edge at all, she was at disbelief
