You may not have heard the term energy vampire before, but its quite likely you have come across one. These are the people who suck the air out of a room. Their company leaves you feeling drained and emotionally exhausted, and the prospect of spending time with them brings on a feeling of dread and anxiety. Psychotherapist Dr Sophie Henshaw says energy vampires commonly draw energy subconsciously from others through patterns of communication: intimidation and power seeking, compliments and flattery, or seeking reassurance and offloading negativity. She adds that, at their most extreme, these behaviour patterns amount to personality disorders.
