Feeling Guilty

This is going to sound very childish, but I have reoccurring hallucinations of my stuffed toys talking to me, I am not sure whether they themselves are imbued with some sort of life force or if they are possessed by something else. This has been happening on and off for almost 2 decades.

The other day one of my stuffed animals would not stop emitting this awful humming ringing noise and mumbling too lowly for me to comprehend. I felt it was whispering insults at me and trying to irritate me with the constant noise. I asked it to stop a few times and it did not long term, so when I found the culprit I threw it as hard as I could across the room.

I feel really guilty about it now, and I'm not sure how to apologize or if I even really should. I don't like the feeling of it watching me disapprovingly, but I don't want to throw it away either. I'm worried that it'll spread and then they'll all hate me. I don't think sorry will cut it.

I'm worried this bout of anger might indicate something bigger about me as a person, and I don't want to be bad or violent. I feel like a terrible person.
