in the form of consoling and reinforcing the victimhood of people. In groups like this, people don’t make progress. They get mired in the pain of the relationship. Or taking the inventory of the vampire. Over and over and over. What you’re looking for is freedom, health, and joy. You want out of spinning in the drama of the vampire-empath dance, and you’ll never remember who you really are if you keep identifying as a victim who has no power.
Really significant. Getting stuck in the tape is not healing. Even saying a "switch word" like 'cancel'' can help break your thoughts.
