For me being a vampire isn't any mythological notion. As for those creatures I have no idea. Lamia means vampire in Latin. And we have been around as long as humans as far as I'm aware. Every society has it's demons and I can not honestly say if vampires were the source or not. Their are spirits that feed off of people as well. Its not exclusive to vampires. But me. It's how I was born. It's as much a mystery to me as to most other people. I'm not undead. I'm as human as you are. While I do age slightly slower it's nothing significant only a few years younger than anyone else my age. For blood. No. I don't crave or obsess about it. That would be the sanguniarian vampires. They get their energy from blood. And most times that blood is a fresh killed animal or one from the freezer isle at a store. Some of them might have a donor that gives their blood willingly. But me I'm a psychic vampire. I feed off of energy and do not need to take it into me physically

. As for the energy I take it keeps me healthy. When I lack energy it causes headaches. Lethargy. Inability to focus. Nightmares even so far as physical pain puts me in a sour edgy mood. Feeding off of people makes me feel bad because it can hurt them. If I feed off of their joy it can leave them feeling miserable yes. But being a psychic vampire I can see the energy levels in others and I would never intentionally drain someone who is low on energy them self. Or to the point they feel bad. If I feed off a person I try to take a little energy from multiple people so no single person ends up being injured by it. And I don't always feed on people. Trees I actually feed off of more often than people. Storms in particular can provide enough energy to last up to 3 days after they've passed.

Feeling guilty about using my abilities? I've always had them it's who I am. I can't turn off some. The enhanced night vision or other senses. Seeing the emotions, energy, and personality of others. I can't turn that off. But I can ignore it. Most people think of vampire and think of 300yr old Dracula looking guy who runs around at night drinking blood and explodes in sunlight. The real thing is pretty disappointing if compared to him lol. I can walk in sunlight without any problems it bothers my eyes cuz I'm adapted to the darkness. But sunglasses quickly fix that. I have faster movements and better proportion strength than someone my size normally would. But I am not anywhere near superhuman. I can't fly or shape shift or any of that movie stuff. That's all fictional. I do have a faster metabolism. So I heal rapidly and don't get sick very easily. (Low energy being the exception) my cuts won't heal before your eyes and I can't regrow a limb if it were hacked off. But I do heal about 3-5 times faster than an average person. In a sense anything that can kill you can kill me. I just can take a bit more of a hammering first. Does that answer your questions? If not feel free to ask more or specify what needs explaining :)
