Strong will and faith in oneself for strength could alone solve your problem, fightback, show no fear, tell the spirits to go away. And if you feel you need assistance you can always come to god for strength. (And no Christian aren't the only one who believe in God, the Egyptian, the Muslim...etc)

...when you are attacked, call upon the name- just say "Jesus!" Say His name over and over, until the spirit recoils- and it will. Sometimes the spirits mock you, but just firmly continue to say "Jesus!" and it will go away. If you laugh uncontrollably afterwards or during, don't be alarmed. The Holy Spirit within you is laughing with joy for victory. I realize this may sound strange to you and you might not want to experience it. Protestant Christians call it being slain by the Spirit. The prayer proves to be a way to bring you closer to Christ to allow His Spirit to work in you and fight for you. It also establishes to spirits around you that you are His. His name is much like a missile used in war, and it's one that never misses it's target!

Not necessarily. The Youtube film could very well be fake. Everything on the internet is to be taken with a grain of salt. But your not gonna tell me demons don't exist. Especially since I've had an experience with one myself. I'm not looking for approval from you and neither is he. I don't need YOU to tell me wether or not demons are real because I KNOW they are. No offense to you or anything though. He is merely asking advice to make it stop and you're trying to tell him he's not experiencing what he says he is, when that was not what he was after.

OP:
First of all I believe you, I had very similar experiences during my witchy past.
When you start doing Ouija board or any type of spiritism, you open a pandora box that is hard to close. But don't worry, you can cast them away the same way you invited him. After you have done that, simply ignore their presence altogether (they will come again). It is also very important that until they are gone, you do not make any attempt at other psychic things such as astral projection and channeling. A body in a trance state is a door open to problems.
Good luck and say safe!

First of all, are you a man or a woman? Succubi go for men, incubi for women?...You don't know what it is any more than I do -- or rather, you do know, only too well, and the knowledge is so devastating to your sense of being an independent, integrated, decent, whole person that you cannot afford to acknowledge it: you must repress it, thrust it away, refuse to look at it. Consciously, then, you do not know what it is.
But unconsciously, you do know. Somewhere deep inside, you know how important this fearsome aspect of yourself is, and are desperately trying to make yourself aware of it. The 'rape' you speak of is really your unconscious trying to force you consciously to face the facts.
What should you do? Well, you need to find out what it is that is troubling you.
Here are a few things that might help. Write down an account of all your encounters with this entity. Work hard to focus on the most memorable (and especially the most frightening) details. Try to build up the most accurate picture you can. If you have any skill with a pencil, draw pictures. Then put aside what you have written and drawn for a season or so before going back to it and trying to understand what it is trying to tell you.
Do the same for your Ouija board experiences. Again, focus on the most vivid and disturbing parts. Again, put it away and come back to it a few months later.
Keep a record of your dreams. Keep a notebook beside your bed; if you wait till morning to write it all down you will have forgotten everything. The more you do this, the more - and more revealing - dreams you will have.
I am ambivalent about psychoanalysis, but a good Jungian analyst would probably be able to help you with the job of getting to the bottom of all this.
Finally, here is some fairly scary advice. Why not try to rearrange your encounters with this entity on friendlier terms? Don't wait for it to assault you; invoke it and ask it what it is and what it really wants from you. Or, next time it manifests, keep your nerve and ask it the same questions. You say it rapes you? How about cooperating instead of being raped? After all, you seem to be helpless in its power anyway, so you have nothing to lose.
Mind you, I'm not sure if I would have the courage for that myself...
Demons do exist, but they are not external, supernatural entities -- we just conceive of them that way because we don't dare accept that whatever it is they arise from is really a part of us. Demons, like angels and gods and aliens from outer space, are aspects of our own psyches, and only by learning to know them and to integrate them into our selves can we attain true wholeness.
Fare well, my friend.
