so I was bored...
so I was on the internet...
so I found a few very interesting articles on psychic vampires, including a book someone wrote on how to be one, or something of that sort.
actually, it was a book on what being a psychic vampire was about, the levels, auras, shields, healing. i dunno. it was a lot, and i cant read it all because i can't read stuff in red. which is what color it happens to be. well the chapter titles anyways, and im lazy.
they explain how they feed. you know, when you complain about psychic vamps draining you. those people that every time you're around, you get really tired too easy. anyway.

When we are the center of attention of a whole group, we may feed upon the emotions of those around us as they are directed toward us. Those involved in the group are unlikely to notice the loss of energy, and oftentimes feeding in this way only increases their focus upon you.
This is an activity many Potentials engage in, though they do not often consciously understand what it is they do. This is one of the main reasons many Potentials are drawn toward the stage. Many become actors, storytellers, musicians or other performers so that they may achieve the kind of focused attention they crave.
For those who have Become, this is a pleasing activity, but rarely satisfies more than the most superficial of needs.
Even when a group is not focused upon us, we may feed generally upon them. No physical contact is necessary: we simply expand our awareness to encompass the group around us as if throwing out a net, or visualize ourselves at the center of a whirlpool, drawing everything in. Thus our energy extends beyond ourselves and, like embracing good friends, we pull bits of everyone about us into ourselves, breathing them deeply.

When you are starved for energy and no opportunity to adequately sate your needs has arrived, you may find that you will send yourself out in dreams. This is much like astral travel, although it is largely an unconscious activity.
i just thought i'd share and ask what people thought on the subject on psychic vampires. its a just-for-fun topic.
i get what they're saying, but mostly they're writing these books and aiming them towards gothic teens. thats the category they're in.
