Is this because they will not be available until next month, or only that is when you can start a down payment? I am very serious about a few DC's in the store, They are practically yelling "What are you waiting for? An engraved invitation?" I have not yet decided which to go with first. (Which is my...favorite...way of sabotaging myself) A Desire Demon is right up there near the top. But, they aren't available.

For me it's funding - I get paid once a month, and because I haven't previously budgeted for this, I have to wait until I a) have been paid, and b) can adjust my budget.
And now I'm curious which ones are calling you because I have this overwhelming need to help you sort that out. rofl

I've been around a lot of feeders - we tend to collect each other because it's so much easier than trying to explain to outsiders what it's like. I've fed at a concert before, but I was careful about what concert because there have been some concerts where the energy was... filthy for my needs - and I found that concerts, in general, weren't the best place for me. I know that it's common nature for psy-vamps to adore large crowds and concerts because yes, there's SO much energy flung around at concerts, it's like a pinata you don't have to hit.

Perhaps the servitors I've been exposed to were not properly programmed for my needs, but I've yet to come across one that has adequately fed me. That's not to say it can't be done - but I feed better from living entities and humans. Servitors are always missing... something. I don't know what. There's a strong correlation between sexual energy and life energy in a lot of mystic traditions, so it's very possible that I can't feed from servitors because they're not alive. I also cannot feed on spirits.

I have inherited family trauma that rule me out as a canditate for what you need. You should not have to starve for having healthy policies and boundaries. I see your willingness to reach out - aka - not go through this alone - as the next step for you. Trust that you will have not one pure, strong client, but many. Because it sounds to me that your energy source would potentially benefit from this agreement. A win-win, if you will. You will find the right people.
I admit that making this post was quite terrifying for me - I'm not, generally, a very forward person about my personal needs - my own family trauma.

Thank you for the support.
Actually... thank you ALL for the support.
