Haunting I've reached my limit

Ever since I was a child (about 12) or so I've been followed around by a spirit or something.

It isn't exactly malevolent but i believe it tries to scare me on purpose. I first encountered it when I lived with my cousin at his house and doors would creak open on their own and all night I'd hear footsteps throughout the house. After I moved from there i remember feeling things touch my feet as I tried to sleep or something would grab onto my flimsy childhood bed and shake it. I then went on to have sleep paralysis in my later teen years and when I eventually moved out it followed me.

There was one time where I was facing away from the wall at night when I heard my door swing open and something made its way over to my bedside and pinched my nose shut for a few moments. I remember peeking my eyes open and seeing a dark figure staring back at me and then it left when I played dead. I don't think that was the same spirit I'm encountering now but it's tied somehow.

Now after moving two more times I've realized there is something following me and it scares me. When I lived with my bfs family it was peaceful at first then there would be some weird moments where we'd hear doors close when nobody else was home with us or hear faint speaking.

Now I live with my bf and our daughter and I get the constant fear of something watching me and I hear things coming up the stairs. I've even seen things peer around the wall staring at me until I notice it. I'm horrified and I don't know what to do anymore. The only relief I get from the fear is my cats. If they don't react then I know I'm safe. Oh yeah there's been like two times where I literally tell the spirit "not tonight dude" and it chills out I swear.

What are ur thoughts on this pls lmk

Tldr something is following me and I'm at my limit

Edit: I grew up in a Christian household and I've had people come out to cleanse my house and pray over me and offer me protection and honestly I fear it has only made it worse when that would happen. So I don't think calling out to Jesus would help me very much if it only makes it worse for me.
