Emotional Vampires

As everyone knows I adore vampires but emotional vampires I can totally live without. You know what I am talking about the people in your lives that drain you or feed on you mentally. Almost everyone of us has someone in our life. They're the real-life Dementors who suck your energy without even trying. These people that make you feel physically tired, drained, sleepy, and agitated just being around them.

There's nothing like the dysfunctions of others to bring out the beast in all of us. Whether it's the neighborhood drama-queen, the narrow-minded person who just happened to cross your path, or perhaps you have one of those self absorbed jack asses in your life. 

Intellectually we know the fall out that will occur from calling out the crazies, it will cause more chaos. However it internally eats at you, that they are to blind to see there own dysfunctions.

Well guess what?

The truth is they are effin crazy. 

I thank the heaven's have only encountered the the drama queen and constant talker aspect of the emotional vampire. The Drama queen: These people have a flair for exaggerating small incidents into of the chart drama. The Constant talker: These people are not really interested in your feelings, they are mostly concerned with self. Mostly sitting around trying to get a word in edgewise but it normally never comes.

Don't get sucked into their endless series of melodramas and try to limit your interactions with them as much as humanly possible. Try to surround yourself with people that are uplifting who boost your spirit. For the most part 98% of my friends are just that a positive force in my life but their are the rare exceptions.
