Here's a place for psychic vampires to talk about their powers and problems. I want to know, how you can know if you are a psychic vampire, and how to be stronger with your powers. Or learn to control and channel them. That's all, thanks!

well knowing for me was just realising that I seemed to get a little hyper around others while they were getting tired or listless...and then I ran into someone who knew what was up and told me to stop feeding off him.....he then proceeded to explain to me that it was simply a matter of mentally cutting off the flow...or blocking the energy
becoming stronger tho takes practice and experimentation.....test whether you can "feed" from a distance....and push that distance....it also tends to give you an awareness of the life around you....
sounds kinda jedi huh?
use the force...cheesy...but also accurate
Thanks, I think I'll try that. I'm always the one when I'm with my friends to have energy the longest and they want to sleep and I'm like "but the night just started". I've been around my sister long enough to read her emotions and the general outlook of whats going on in her mind. I never have to ask her whats wrong because I always know. Then again that might just be a sisterly thing.

Practice, practice, practice... The more you use your psi abiities, the stronger they become.
My friend like my abilities.
I have more than most.
I have exercised my powers daily since I found out about them about 5 years ago.
I can feed off of peoples energy like most.
But I have an extra ability that most do not.
I can take some of my energy and give it to others.
actually there are a lot of psy/chi vamps that can give energy as well as take it.
for me its a feeling. it starts deep down and spread through your body like a wild fire then and followed be chill down your spin, and you can feel a conection with someone or something. and an overwelming drive. a drive to feed off of the energy around you sucking in the life force of tht around you like a black hole and you can feel the world in your very being
I don't think being able to do something with your mind makes you a psy vamp. "witches" can do a lot of the things that "psyvamps" can. I put them in quotations because it's a label by society. It is just part of your mind you choose to use but it's not the only door one can open. Gifts are endless and i believe most do it for the high-like feeling it gives them anyway.
a psy-vamp... WASN'T a label... until of course hollywood and a load of teenage kids came along.
the so-called "REAL psy-vamps" are usually constantly feeling drained of energy. everyone feels a little drained of energy at some point... what do you do then? you get it back via food or sleep.
psy-vamps just abosrb energy from people. or so it is said.
but if it is real. it's not a label. only the kids are labelled. because most of the kids have caused all the labels.
a few weeks ago at work a girl came in with a t-shirt saying "death to all scallys"
she was about 15. it's basically all the immature teens that label and act on that with "hate"
If anyone has read anything of the Strigoi Vii teachings it gives details into Psy Vampyrism and so does the Psychic Vampire Codex.
it's actually a good point... the concepts are all nice and mysterious... but who says they exist?
could all be absolute trollop and poop in a big ball
exactly, am often with lack of energy but never claimed to be one
For me, half the time I dont even know I am doing it... I am not one to drain a person to a point of passing out... I take what I need from many... I share the wealth, if you will... I can give possitive energy to those hwo need it and I can take what I need from others... Sometimes, I have a hard time... I take from pretty much everyone... I am an open window for all sorts of emotions to flow through... It is hard to controle them all sometimes... I usually take on the emotion of someone who I am driectly draining from...
i dont lack it, so why do other people lack it? is draining others just an excuse to take something from others instead of trying to improve it otherwise?
I have personally managed to suck the life out of all of my past relationships.
Do i qualify. he he!!!
No really, once you start to truly empower yourself then you don't need the co dependancy of others, you learn to take pleasure, or energy from the ambient energy of life around you without picking out such direct targets. the reason we feed off others is that the energy is so familiar or compatible.
Also the law of conservation can apply.
Don't expend as much energy wastefully on the trivial to passify.
I would guess it takes practice and discipline to control a thing as much as it would to access, or feed of a thing.
daremon is right, you have to practice at it and you will get better.
and as for young ones they really have no control, i was there myself and was left to fend for myself but was founded by another psy vamp that saw my symptoms and helped me realize to how i was and how i can care myself.
a) feeding of a being is easy but what part do you take....the pain, the pleasure, or the whole lot. its up to you, but remeber to stop befor you do harm, expecially in public.
b) mulit feedings, (Grouping, group feeding)
taking a little for the surounding people around you so its like a buffet. (chinese, italian, greek ect.) * works well in night clubs, much feeding there. >:D
c) trantric feedings, when you are feeding during sexual pleasures yours and of others. very yummy! >:D
d) animal/plant/Gaia feedings are of the trees/plants (careful about them cuz too much CAN kill them. Animals are knowing of this and some are willing and some are not, use your instincts.
e) Eletronic feedings, are not the most tasty energies to go by but they help when you have nothing else around and your hungry. (to give it a taste, its like a plain rice cake, very bland.)
Emotional feedings are different only cuz they can change on a dime and you can be aflected by it as well.
When it comes to being a newly psy/eng vamps either ask your creator or find someone that you can confide in and get the help... i hope this was a bit helpful to you.
Oh as dont forget to practice at your abilities, its just like riding a bike you fall but you get back up and keep practicing and before you know it your better at what you do. >:D
Most people say hey feel all of these senses when they feed.
To me, it is completely normal.
No chills, no nothng.
Just refreshment.
Thanks guys. I'll take most of your advice. I don't like how labels came up, there is no need to discuss those. Let the world have its labels, I know who I am. If its labeled, so be it. I'll take your advice. I like Daermons. And a few others that I can't remember their names cuz they were new to me, sorry.

night clubs are there best! The happy meals dancing,wasting their energy....
All you can eat or suck buffet
are we talking about one who know there doing it, or the one who don't relize it
so basically psy vamps suck energy for the "high" it gives them.
In reference to using abilities.
When i was made i was given a very small amount of teleapathy from my maker,
but i needed to develope it cuz the
one that found me was asking me not to probe his roommate
(which i had no control over)
he was the one who'd helped me.
With that Teleapthy, he told me to try working on it with kids (babies, infants, toddlers) and animals of all kinds to see if they hear me, well over the yrs im still getting the hang of it but i find that adults have very cluttered minds and they have too mcuh on their minds so its hard to read them.
So i still probe but not like i did when i was a young one I have more control about it.
Night clubs are such a great buffet,
i try to go every weekend if not
every other weekend.
part of what I was getting at is that "all" life gives off energy.....but yes other people do seem to have an energy that is more compatible to our own.....and generally it is a good thing to feed as it were around large groups....absorbing from the ambience in the area rather than off individuals.....
and yes gorkey this thread has been done before....but not for a while.....if it bothers you so much.....you do have the option of not reading it......
I've never been high, so no its not for the high. It's for their energy. Why do I care about a "high"? I don't.
~morgana~
Feeding off of energy, you really don't get high, not like you would on Pot or E,
yet you do get a burst, a rush, like you would if you were on a rollercoster or a bungie jump, and if its a good feed it can last for days sometimes months.
I know when i feed off of a crowd at a club, i leave more ready for anything then when i walk in. >:D
For me it's never intentional. And when it is it doesn't fucking work.
I was at work and hanging out with a co-worker. After a few moments my stomach started to hurt...a lot. And she mentioned something about having indigestion a few mintues later. Empathy pain?
This one happens a lot. When I'm making out with someone (and I don't make out a lot cause I'm picky LOL) after a while i get a boost of energy and they end up passing out on the couch or in one case the guy passed out in the tub. don't ask.
Anyways, sometimes I'm aroung people and while they start to yawn and get tired I have a this extra engery.
Another thing, and it might just be empathy. .......if you're sad then i feel sad, if you get horney chances are i'll get horney. i can feel what others feel. and i told my mom about it and she said it's a "woman" thing. ok whatever but it's not that bad.
Ambient feeds in crowd situations will help you reduce the effects on individuals. Good crowds can be shopping malls, concerts, sometimes clubs, roller rinks, sporting events, etc.
lol please. I know what's it like to "feed" and yeah it's a high. If you never had one, then you probably never "fed".
I know some people who got high eventhough they didn't fed on anyone....
It's called weed!!!!
I've never smoke weed before. I like how it makes others giggle.

I know all about this, it happens all the time.
And I love it (poor french accent) giggles
As fot the feeling of being "high" It all depends on the individual psy vamp.
We are all different in how we feel when we feed,
to some its a high,
to others its a rush or burst,
all in all
we all have had our feelings/senseations after we feed.
And as to the coment about Weed/Pot
to some of us its simillar, "feeling"
while others get a rush/burst of energy like drinking back a red bull
(even though feedings dont give you wings...giggles)
but you get the idea.
See even though we are all the same
we all have different makers/creators and their abilities/traits and feelings which are differnt to each other, that makes us all unique in our own ways.
>:D *Smiles
sappy...i like giving people hell on this site. lol it's just my smartass side that comes out for some reason but i love ya!
Sorvena,
SImply because one does not feel a "high" when receiving another's energy, or taking it, does not mean they have not fed.
Everyone is different.
I have found that if I do not take an excess, it is simply a pleasantly revived feeling. If I take more than is prudent, I feel overloaded with energy, skittery, etc. If this is what you mean by a "high," then it't not something I care to repeat. It speaks of careless overindulgence, in my humble opinion.
totally Req, i know when i over indulge (which is not often (except for being extremly hungry)
i get too hyper, anxious, buzzing with energy that tingles all over and ppl wonder whats up with me.
giggles
>:D
well I have only experienced a high sensation when feeding from a drug laced individual.....and that I think had more to do with mild empathy than feeding....
but yes being around happier gorups does make for better feeding
I actually find that the happier a group is a larger excess of energy is apparent around them
depression tends to make one pull inwards...
Crowds are my favorite!! All that energy in one place, just waiting to be tapped. I think all comments have been pretty much on target-everyone feels it differently. I feel a rush sometimes, others just much more energized. nme, clubs are a perfect place, you are right. Young nubile bodies exuding energy-lovely!!
well all i know is, im not a vampire yet i can do that too. go figure.
I'm not a vampire either, but I have complete control over my powers.
I have read recently that the need for psy-vampirism extends from a deficiency or abjection in the flow of pranic energy, or 'chi' from the inner self or, fundamentally, from the universal 'force' and this person used the analogy of being in a bath with a leak...you have to keep constantly topping it up or you will 'dry out'...
but would anyone know what are the specific techniques?
Is it a body language or breathing exercise, or perhaps some form of 'direct' mental 'drawing' of energy which is ritualised?
Is there a difference between natural ability and learned skill?
any advice will be graciously received.
i had a guy to share his energy with me and i didnt know it was called feeding until a lady friend of mine told me it was. i still dont believe it's feeding. i think it's sharing of 2 energies.
Now i have felt other energies that made me feel very heavy and people define this as dark energy. frankly, i just call it how i feel because with either feeling, nothing was harmful to me in any way.
i dont know, i have been told by my friends that i drain them emotionally and physically....i dont even do anything....but i wouldnt consider myself a psy vamp
maybe it's not a person but rather something within themselves to blame
then if it's all in one's head, maybe somebody needs to change the station
