Some of what you have told us about, could be explained and should be investigated before going to any extremes, IE trying to cleanse the house, as these sort of actions can actually upset spirits that may have been in your home, behaving themselves.
The slap in the face could have been either way. I have already have had dreams where I fell off a cliff and woke up and felt like I had. Dreams are funny like that.
In most cases physical damage, cuts, bruises and lacerations are usually from real world events, not astral. My girlfriend always has a few bruises, and neither of us ever know where she gets them from.
Sounds are another hard one. The human ears are complex. They take in and process a lot of stuff and then manage it and send the info to the brain and the brain relays it back. Sounds are more complex then most of us give thought to. If you are hearing things, try to find what is making those sounds. Investigate. Sometimes it can be the most simple things. The same can be said for banging and other sounds. Look at all sources.
Creepy feelings can go either way. I know how you feel, I have had them too. But as humans we are easily manipulated. After talking about a traumatic experience or telling a ghost story, you can even give yourself the same feelings over again. Try not to over hype what is going on and be brave, try not to let this thing influence you too much. There is power in bravery.
Stuff being thrown, ripped or flying around is a whole new thing altogether. That is some paranormal stuff right there. Further more, most normal ghosts can't really do that much, since it requires a lot of energy to move anything (usually under 5lbs). The fact they are ripping posters and moving bins suggests they are stronger then your average spirits.
Please keep in mind, messing with the paranormal like that, in a early age may have even made you a target, even worse yet is the fact that, if you can't get rid of them, if the spirits are persistent, they can follow you as far as you want to go. Try to stay strong and stand your ground. Having faith in yourself and the willpower and bravery to do so will only empower yourself. Keep in mind a lot of cleansing techniques won't be effective unless they are backed up with your faith. If you don't believe it is going to help, it won't.
On a side note, I don't know how 'open minded' you are. But you can try what is called 'shielding'. Stand in a nice quite place and imagine that a bright white lite is slowly surrounding you from top to bottom, leaving no open spots for any negative energy to enter, tell yourself that this white light is your shield, and that while in it, nothing with any bad or evil intent is allowed to enter. Keep this shield up for as long as you wish. Many psychics and parapsychologists use this technique to protect themselves while working.

First...I must say I feel for you and while some of these experiences could be sleep paralysis others are not. A few questions now...
When you smudged, did you have the windows open or closed?
The tapping on the windows and walls the running... Did this sound as if it's inside the room or coming from outside the room? (after the smudging that is)
You have stated that you have some experience with certain things, from when you were a teen. This could have 'opened' you up to these experiences. Your 'dabbling' may have even attracted something to you.
Salt/smudging can help if you allow a way for the spirit to depart the room in the case of the latter and if you are trying to keep a spirit out in the case of the former. (i.e. Open a window when you smudge to let things out and once the room is clear then close the room and place your salt.)
Faith also plays a big part in anything you do Call upon your Faith, visualize your room/home...personal space... Being cleared.
For your new home, open the windows and doors, visualize a white light starting in the very center of the home, picture it the size of a pin, then growing, expanding, outward. Pushing all negative energies out and away. Picture the light surrounding the entire home. Then picture it being as firm and permanent as the walls.
Thanks for posting and keep us updated.
Respectfully,
Rook

That's an interesting, well, and scary situation. You've obviously opened a window when you were younger to beings being able to "target" you. There are presences all around, and the unfortunate thing is you've also attracted negative beings. If you believe in God, pray whenever you feel a presence. Pray for yourself and pray for it. If you are dealing with something bigger, chances are it will get angry and you'll know it. You can bless your bungalow and your house with holy water, but again if you're dealing with something bigger, that's when you definitely need to seek outside help from a priest.
Ouiji boards and seances are great ways to awaken evil beings that feed off your fears and anxieties. Thing is... Some will follow you. It's hard not to be afraid when these kinds of things happen, but try not to be and call on God for help. You can look up prayers online if you need.
I hope you find peace. Good luck and God bless.

I've heard of specialists on hags/sleep paralysis and do special cleansing rituals. The reciepiants of the ritual almost always seem better. You should probably look more into the subject of finding someone who could do one of those rituals in you area.
Good luck and stay safe!

Wow...That's really scary, you could try going to a priest? That might help. I'm very sorry for what's happening to you; no one deserves that. I hope they won't follow you to the new house!
God bless ❤
God bless ❤

Yeah it's real scary. But I think becasue I haven't had a proper nights sleep in weeks I'm more scared than I mormally would be. And this gives it more power I guess.
I have tried to be strong and brave - it worked for two nights and that's when it ripped the poster off the wall.
I'm really hoping they won't come to my new house, thinking about maybe getting the place professionally cleansed?
Right now I'm at my wits end, again this morning I asked them to leave. I don't understand why they won't!
Does anyone know what this spirit is? Someone said something about a hag?
Thanks guys
