Evil Eye is mostly abundant from women, especially from bitter looking Old Ladies.
That's exactly the evil eye in action.
Not that it isn't hard to overcome. Just if you are a young naive person and you see it for the first time, it can give you a drastic feeling of despair. Literally just picking up a combat sport like boxing, working out, helps you fight back in the Spiritual Realm too. I can break free from sleep paralysis dreams now the stronger I get in the physical realm.
