Vampirism Claims

I've noticed a lot lately when cruising the many vampirism and occult related boards out there on the Internet that one of the big issues today with vampirism is not the fact that people are role playing or making a mockery of the term "Vampire", but the increasingly large number of people claiming to be vampires (mostly of the psychic sorts).The idea struck me that many of the people claiming what they are might not be true. It seems as though vampirism is the end all of their search if they see themselves having troubles with bright lights or feelings of depression. This does not make one a vampire, nor does it rule out the possibility of being one.


Yet, the large number of teens between the ages of 13 to 19 could be believing in something that may not be true in there case. When people e-mail me for help with their awakening or vampirism they all say the same thing, for example: "I am a teen in search of who I am, I am allergic to sunlight as the bright lights bother me. I am depressed and feel all alone in the world with no one to turn to. I also crave blood and feel as if my body craves and longs for it. I am a psychic vampire and I awakened 2 months ago, please help me" . If they don't admit to when they awakened within the initial e-mail, I usually take it upon myself to ask when they did.


The answer usually is contradicting to that of the question or they awakened a week or month before. I don't believe that lack of information or lack of soul searching is all of the problem, but the fact that awakened is such a nonchalant term nowadays. By this I mean people are taking the word completely out of context with the meaning. An awakening is the realization that one is of the vampiric sorts. Being awakened means that one has found themselves and have come to terms with their vampirism knowing: How to feed, feel energy, and the like.



Determing If You Are a Vampire Requires Some Inner Reflection

Guessing and Knowing are completely different and guessing doesn't mean you are a vampire, just that if you aren't you could be lying to yourself and living with that lie. Some even want so much to believe that they are of the vampiric sorts that it causes them to live with the fact that they "just might be". Yet, if these people are "awakened" and still in need of help and trying hard to find who they are then they are either in desperate need of attention, lack the knowledge of what true vampirism is and means, are following vampirism as a fad, or not yet awakened, but awakening.


I think these people need to take it upon themselves (if they are going to follow a certain lifestyle, especially one with as much detail as vampirism) to actually do a bit of soul searching. Personally I don't feel like lying to myself my entire life is a good way to live. So please if you are one of these people…. Stop for a second and think about it, do a bit of research and try not to lie to yourself. If you really think you're a vampire,then look into it, don't just say that you are without knowing anything about it at all. Trust me, it will help you in the long run knowing who you really are.
