Restarting Cm., Noises in the night! Options

Greeting everyone. This is my first post hope I've put it in the right section. I've recently restarted CM, after a long break, although have practised withcraft during the last year, and have for the last couple of months started CM work by goig through QC, LBRP,MPR nothing to intense just building up again. However for the last four weeks or so generaly after my rituals I have started to hear noises at night, in my bedroom outside my door etc. I don't know if other people find this. The last time I did the LBRP, before I broke off my studies I remeber distinctly hearing laughing coming from the corner of the room, a little unsettling. Thats partly why I broke off my studies.

Since starting again apart from the noises, I've had something tug at my pillow, as I'm trying to get off to sleep, and during the night felt something on my bed, which was very un-nerving. I haven't felt threatened, and I don't feel there's a negative atmosphere around.

I don't feel this is normal, but I would like some advice on what these things could be. Have thought that doing the rituals has made me more sensitive to other things than before, but I don't know. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Not to go off topic but do you think its possible to 'go back' into your previous state after being out of practice? Regress as it were. Or do you feel as though you can pick up from where you left off, as you said a bit rusty, but with a matured mind?

I can only speak of my experience, I don't believe I can pick up from where I left off as such. However I think there's something inside you that remembers and therefore you can tap those energies quicker than if trying to for the first time. An analogy. I use to play the piano, from the age of 8. Got quite proficient, then life got in the way and I stopped. There was a period of 15 yrs when I didn't play at all. Then a couple of years ago I had more time to devote to it. I didn't pick up from where I left off, but I wasn't starting again like I had never played, call it muscle memory. And I was able to progress quicker up to the level I was previously. I think its the same with anything including tapping the energies inside yourself. I'm 37 now and I have a reasonable experience in life, and this has effected the way I'm approaching CM now, my outlook was very different when I first started.
