Magic Forums

I found this site while looking for answers to some things in my own life. thinks that may just be "paranoia" as my family calls it, or they could be something significant and real. I just don't know. For a long time I was curious about any forms of magic through out history as a hobby, but as I grew up I became more interested in learning what is real and what is not. my problem is that the person I was learning from began to believe in the obviously false things (i.e the tv show charmed) I need help finding where to start on the right path. can any one give me some pointers?
