Do you often feel exhausted by conversations? Are there people in your life who belittle you through words or actions? Or, do you have colleagues who take up all your time? You could be surrounded by vampires!

Be it time, energy, attention or habit vampires, these ubiquitous social villains can leave you feeling drained and depleted. Whether they're lurking in your office, hiding

amongst friends and family, or invading your thoughts, vampires can be found all around you. Fortunately, no vampire can survive when the sun shines on them. With the help of the behavioural model made famous in Surrounded by Idiots, international bestselling author and behavioural expert Thomas Erikson will help you recognise and banish the vampires in your life.
