Yes, these psychic vampires feed off of turmoil, chaos and tears? Oh yeah, if they can get sadness or crying, they'll feed off of it by even embracing their dinner, so to speak. They vary from as you said, on auto-pilot, not realizing what they are doing, to intentionally engineering their drama, knowing they'll be reporting/gossiping about it to their cohorts and many of them truly get "food" from this.
Starving the buggers is sport for those of us with solid shield. NO, not sport that is sought-out. Just is what it is when we see them instantly begin.
It's a blessing to not need to stay out of their drama, but like having to be in it quite often, yes even at family, holiday dinners to perhaps office drama, etc. The blessing is to be in the "eye of their storm" and be at-peace and even unaware of our "shield" that's doing battle for us, always in defensive mode of course.
I believe they are legion and that every human comes in contact with them, just sadly unaware much of the time.
Meditation in the right spirit with honorable motives, meditation "in the light" is an impenetrable shield.
Problem is, choosing to not stay in the meditative state, being lazy and not meditating when we know we need to is when we put ourselves without this shield, even if for only 10 mins, for example.
I know every time I'm at fault for doing this to myself.
However, it's cool how many times I've likely not even known I was in danger because this gifted shield was doing its thing and I was in my center, at perfect peace.
DLP, you said said, "Yes, there are emotional vampires, those who seem to cause a lot of trauma-drama whenever they're around. Yes, they feed off that. It's like a drug to them, whether they know they're doing it or not. Many are unaware of this tendency. Many are. Best and easiest way to deal with them is to simply stay out of the drama. Don't give them anything to "eat", so to speak.
There are also real vampires in the world. They can feed off emotions but their "food" of choice is life energy. And they feel perfectly entitled to take what they want, because non-vamps are seen as nothing more than cattle. They will tear through your shields if you don't have strong shields. They are capable of attaching what amounts to a feeding tube to you so they can feed at will and you'll have no idea it's happening except you feel weak or under the weather all the time. Emotional vampires are to these vampires what a Smart Car is to a Ferrari.
You may never cross paths with one of these vamps or any of the other energies and entities that exist. You may never feel the need to learn how to protect yourself beyond the most basic shielding. You may never need to learn. Only you will know that for sure."
