If I had fear of demonic possession (which I don’t) – it would be tantamount to telling God I do not believe Him or that I do not trust Him.

Such things can be the result of a lack of faith, it would indeed be to question your faith (or at least to acknowledge it was failable) keeping in mind even peter denied Christ 3 times.

Many or perhaps most people feel closer to God when they are in dire straits or have been humiliated (like Peter.) Those bumps along the way can help us learn to believe Him and to trust Him.
