Energy Vampires: The People Who Bleed You Dry

Dear Permission to be Powerful Reader,

I’m one of those people I keep talking about.

Crazy…

Or at least… I used to be.

You had to be crazy to stay in toxic relationships for as long as me.

Let me clue you in on something:

Some people are emotionally dependent on others.

👉 They NEED to be rescued.

👉 They EXPECT it.

👉 DEMAND it.

And they’ve been this way for a long time.

The whole time.

And guess what?

They expect YOU to save them.

They’re really good at finding new problems for others to solve.

And they waste no time pulling you into action.

Always some great injustice that only you can fix.

And before you know it, you’re wrapped up in their problems.

Which seem to materialize like clockwork—one after another, after another.

It’s almost like they’re manufacturing crises on a schedule.

I haven’t been in a situation like that in a long time.

But when it was my reality…

I got healed enough to see the exploitation honestly.

Didn’t stop it from draining the life out of me, though.

And I decided—people who drain me must go.

I’m already exhausted as it is.

That’s why the Zen Center has been a Godsend for me.

It’s a healing space.

A place that soothes old wounds most people have long forgotten.

When my suffering was intense, I thirsted for spiritual freedom.

To be unburdened.

And somehow, I manifested actually becoming a Zen monk.

That’s me—living my dream.

But I digress. Let’s talk about that troublemaker in your life.

I noticed something eye-opening:

Some people try to enlist you to solve their problems…

And when they do…

They’re gifting you a new crisis.

But if I stop and really assess the situation…

I ask myself:

👉 Where in all this chaos do I benefit?

👉 Do I get anything from taking this new problem on?

If the answer is no—then I have zero business getting involved.

It’s so weird.

Problems are personal.

And just because millions of people are more than happy to let you fix their lives for them…

That doesn’t make it any less insane.

Like…

Imagine if I randomly started sending you my favorite porn videos out of nowhere.

This is as crazy as that.

Because accountable people?

They keep their problems to themselves.

They don’t drag everyone into drama.

I made this mistake too many times.

Too severely.

To ever make it again.

I had to work so hard to break the cycle of codependency.

I kept attracting people who just took and took and took—until I was exhausted and depressed.

Why was I so comfortable in that space?

Because I had been living that way my whole life.

It was normal to me.

But why?

Ah, yes.

The answer to that question is one some people would rather you never ask.

Because it might force you to take a hard look at the people around you.

You might see you’re investing in the wrong people.

People who don’t deserve you.

And then what?

Cut them out of your life?

Talk about upsetting the applecart.

Ignoring your better judgment?

That’s a recipe for disaster.

For me, it meant facing the truth:

I grew up in an abusive home.

It’s not something my family will ever admit.

But that doesn’t make it any less real.

And it doesn’t erase the fact that I’ve had to live with the effects of growing up like that.

Deep down, I knew something was wrong.

I didn’t want to become them.

So I took the road less traveled.

👉 Almost a decade of therapy.

👉 Thousands of books.

👉 Becoming a Buddhist.

👉 Confronting demons.

And in the end…

I burned my whole life to the ground.

And started over.

It was painful.

But it was worth it.

Because after a lifetime of abandoning myself…

The joy of finally feeling self-love?

That feeling?

I was hooked.

And it was worth any price.
