Paranoid Vampires

I visited an old friend last night, and we got into a pretty in depth conversation about energy manipulation. I talked about an old lover than I can't seem to forget, and how he was very alluring and drew me in. But after that short facade he began sucking the life out of me. Being around him was emotionally and physically draining, but for some reason I was strangely addicted to him and continued to come back. My friend and I got on the topic of energy/psychic vampires, and emotional vampires. I knew about energy vampires but had never heard of emotional vampires. So I did some research, and found that there are many different categories of 'energy vampires'. There are a variety of different folks who have their own individual 'vampiric' traits and means of gaining energy from others. I thought that one 'class' of vampires in particular would interest atsers. The description certainly matches the skeptics here in a lot of ways.

Paranoid vampires. They are described as individuals who search hard for the truth, see things that others can't. And sometimes those are things/patterns may not be there at all.

If you can see many of these characteristics in yourself, consider this . . .
As humans we are energy beings, and everyone gives off energy. Good or bad. And others around us absorb our energy. An imbalance, someone with negative energy of any kind, combined with your positive energy makes for a parasite. They absorb your good energy all for themselves in exchange for their bad or negative energy. Like a mosquito sucking your blood in exchange for their venom.

If you're a paranoid vampire, or an emotional/energy vampire of any kind, do your fellow man a favor and stop feeding off of people. First you must become aware of the fact that you're harming those around you. Let go of the negativity and find a new source of energy, one that benefits you. Energy vampirism can be contagious.
If a parasite has gotten someone to the point that they feel obligated to let them take their energy, after a while they will begin to feed off of others in attempt to refill their depleted resources. It's an endless cycle, a domino effect of negative energy. Let's break the cycle.

Counts me out...

I know I'm not #22

Ive met a ton of paranoid vampires then, and ats is full of them. Infact this describes almost everyone on ats

This sounds like crap, they feed off others paranoia by being paranoid? huh? Am i missing something?

No, they feed off positive energy. Paranoia is a negative energy. They drain by: "jealousy, unshakable prejudices, constant cross-examination of every difference of opinion. Absolute belief is neither good nor evil, but it is a door through which either may enter." In many ways, it's basically what trolls try to do.

Oh, i see.....yes, lots of them on ats..... Thank you for helping me to understand this.

That list describes two thirds of humanity.

I just love general lists to describe people who don't fit in.

It actually reveals more about the people who makes the list than the people they're targeting.
