People tend to increase their own energy by controlling the thoughts and energy of others. This is manifested in various “drama” behaviors that we unconsciously develop. These behaviors are displayed in order to control people and draw their attention and energy to us.

Distant Drama : In this type of drama, the person makes themselves mysterious and unapproachable. They remain silent, distant, and avoid sharing their true feelings. This attitude is an attempt to attract the attention of those around them. People give them energy as they try to understand their inner world. The more mysterious and distant the person is, the more attention and energy they attract.

Interrogative Drama : Interrogative drama develops in the form of a person constantly questioning, criticizing and looking for faults in the people around them. This person reveals the faults in the lives of others and criticizes them. People who are caught up in this drama try to act flawlessly to attract the attention of the interrogator, and this directs their energy to the interrogator. In this way, the interrogator obtains the energy he needs from those in front of him.

Intimidating Drama : If a person is threatening to those around them with their words, physical strength or status, this is called intimidating drama. A person who displays intimidating drama makes those around them nervous and makes them fearful. People who are intimidated pay attention to them and direct their energy towards them because they feel the need to be careful and protect themselves from them.

Pity Drama : A person who displays pity drama blames others for the bad things that happen to them and constantly expects help from those around them. Indirectly, they give the message, “Bad things always happen to me,” and want those around them to support them. This pitiful attitude makes people feel the need to help them, and in this way, they attract energy.

One interesting aspect of these dramas is that they can trigger each other. For example, a person who displays a distant drama may attract someone who starts an interrogative drama. This creates a cycle where the two people try to draw energy from each other, and communication becomes unhealthy.

When such dramatic behaviors go unnoticed, it is inevitable that you will feel your energy being drained from you. When you encounter these dynamics in your life, pay attention to how these interactions affect you. It is possible not to lose your energy by being caught up in the emotional manipulations of others by protecting your own boundaries. Stay in your own center, keep your energy in a healthy balance, and be careful of manipulative behaviors around you. Not losing your energy will give you both inner peace and strength.
