Why You Feel Drained Around Certain People

😫 Why You Feel Drained Around Certain People (And What To Do About It)

Ever walk away from someone and feel completely exhausted—even if the conversation seemed “normal”? That’s not a coincidence. You’re likely experiencing energetic depletion caused by unbalanced emotional dynamics.

In this video, we’ll explore why certain people drain your energy, how to recognize the signs, and most importantly—what you can do to protect your energy and reclaim your power.

🧠 In This Video You’ll Learn:
What an “energy vampire” really is (it’s not just a meme)

The subtle signs your energy is being drained

The emotional programming that makes you vulnerable to takers

How people-pleasing and over-empathy keep you stuck

Real techniques to build energetic boundaries

Why it’s okay to walk away—even from people you love

⚠️ Signs You’re Being Drained:
You feel anxious or tired after spending time with someone

You’re constantly overthinking interactions or trying to “keep the peace”

You feel responsible for someone’s mood or wellbeing

You say “yes” to things you don’t want out of guilt or fear

You lose touch with your own needs and emotions

🔥 Why It Happens:
People who feel drained often come from backgrounds where love was conditional—where your role was to please, fix, or keep others comfortable. That conditioning doesn’t disappear—it turns into patterns. And those patterns attract people who are comfortable taking more than they give.

But here's the truth: Your empathy should include you.
You deserve relationships that fuel your soul—not drain it.

🛡️ What You Can Do:
Learn to recognize energetic red flags early

Practice saying “no” without guilt or over-explaining

Visualize energetic boundaries before interactions

Stop trying to rescue people who won't rescue themselves

Reconnect with your intuition and inner authority
