Or can mentally ill people be more likely to be possessed? Can a person be both mentally ill and possessed?
What should be really obvious signs that separates possession from mental illness?

emotions if theyre posessed, if they dont want it to be known theyre posessed then it wont look like anything suspicious like mental illness

Iām not really sure; I can see why one would think that though (Iām diagnosed with ASD, depression, anxiety and ADHD among other things). I think anyone can be possessed.
Yes.
Well, Iām not a doctor, but I think that depends on what the person is like when theyāre having āepisodesā. For instance, if someone acts a certain way during their āepisodesā, then it should come off as alarming that they would act differently during one, especially if it doesnāt happen consistently enough.

The most distinctive sign of possession from anything else is KNOWLEDGE OF THINGS NOT KNOWN. Is a meth head with a GED youāve never met alternately blaspheming in fluent Aramaic, reciting your deepest secrets and most cherished memories detail for detail, and giving lat long coordinates of undiscovered archaelogical ruins and corpses of missing persons from decades old cold cases? That shit aināt caused by BPD.

Hmm the other day i poked at a close friend who doesnt know i do magick, the energy shifted drastically snd i instantly noticed the energy as malevolent. I poked st its heart chakra where i felt the shift and her eyes widened and said āfucking stop or i will kick your teeth out magiā so i pulled the energy towards the throat chakra and it said i will kill you dont pull me outā¦ so i opened her mouth and looked in it and said āeko eko deformumā (hey, hi ugly) i read an exorcism prayer and she went bezerk then i was able to pull the spirit out of herā¦ she knows i do magick now and her outlook on things is drastically changed

If they speak Latinā¦
In all seriousness, I think the mentally ill are definitely battling some weaker form of possession overall, especially people with personality disorders.
Some tell-tale signs aside from those mentioned are brute strength and a penchant for violence. Iāve watched a relative punch and shatter thick layers of glass with their bare hands without batting an eye. The disturbing part was that he didnāt have a scratch on him.

I can testify that itĀ“s possible for a person to be possessed while being mentally ill. I have experienced it myself and if I remember correctly, it was in the beginning of my path where I started to work with the death gods and spirits of the dead. Aka necromantic practises.

How did u banish the spirit and protect yourself against it?
Can a possessed person get rid of the spirit himself or should they get others involved?
Every weak individual that donāt know how to protect themself can get possessed, but the presence of depression and other negative emotions that most mentally ill people have drastically increases their likelihood of getting possessed. Having a powerful aura also plays a big role in protection from unwanted possession, itās very damn hard for weak entities to possess a person that has a powerful aura. And having a powerful and protective deityās blessings can also save us from uncountable astral attacks and unwanted possessions.
Itās possible to be both mentally ill and possessed at the same time and the entity thatās possessing the person can worsen their mental health.
Some obvious signs of possession are -
Levitation
Superhuman strength
Speaking the languages that the person never knew
A āsuddenā ability to read minds
Predicting future, especially about harmful stuff
Knowing the things that happened behind their back.
Having scratches on oneās body, especially on the back where their hands canāt even reach is a big sign that something/someone is attacking them and most people (especially atheists) ignore it. These type of attacks should be a clear sign that an entity is hurting them and the whole situation can soon turn into an unwanted possession.
A possessed person canāt get rid of the spirit(s) on their own, most of the time, because if the person was strong enough to exorcise a spirit then s/he wouldnāt get possessed in the first place. A possessed person should definitely get others involved, especially powerful astral beings.

I know what it is like to be possessed. Yeah, it happened to me. (No, please do not PM me asking for details. I refuse to discuss it, as itās a very painful topic for me.)
I would tell you for giggles that itās all about hurling pea soup, spinning heads and stabbing your vag with the cross. But itās actually not (usually) as obvious or as interesting as that, as many of you will know. 
Anyway, itās actually quite hard to tell the difference, depending on the degree of possession. Both can go hand in hand. If thereās a possessing entity or spirit, itāll affect your vibe, itāll cause you to think, talk and behave in ways that arenāt congruent with who you are/your character. Youāre not the same as you were pre-possession, life isnāt the same. Drastic changes happen. Itās an all-rounder mind fuck, so that can manifest as a mental disorder or illness. Thereās much more I could say, but it really depends on the person and on the being, and on the circumstances. No two possessions are going to be the same.
Robert Bruce shared his own experience of being possessed if you wish to read about that. His, however, was more severe/obvious than mine, and a lot shorter in duration. Very different experiences, actually. Both - devastating anyway.

I have had āexperienceā with possession and what happens is they enter you and you still stay the same person but you get odd cravings like for sweet or spicy foods and have urges to do certain things like head bang to heavy metal or jerk off a lot currently with Mammon i get urges to gamble and spend money on things I want but donāt needā¦

A transgressive, intrusive personality and an inexplicably broken body, if the person has invoked spirits and then shown them disrespect. You should be able to see which spirits are around them, because theyāll be bold in trying to make themselves known. It could have also been summoned onto them as children through abuse, especially ritual abuse.

The only thing I would say is, they arenāt always keen to make themselves known. Ime they let the person know only when there is an advantage in doing so, but then go to great lengths to hide from others or deceive them. Mostly they try to hide as much as possible. Ofc, Iām referring to malevolent beings who have malicious intent. Itās probably different for beings with an intent to aid the person in some way.

Yeah, Iāve actually never seen malevolent ones yet. Just ones which are alienated, disenfranchised protectors who are very physically violent in their nature.

ItĀ“s actually funny because my own practise dwell deep into full blown possessions(all of them). Some practises rely upon states like that. Hell, even vodoun rituals are like that and thatĀ“s what vodoun rituals are supposed to be like.
