Emotional Vampires in Your Life defines and gives some really useful tips on how to deal with the persons in your life that insist on dishing out a daily dose of the downs. In many cases, so says the author, the best method for avoiding the knot in your gut is to distance yourself from these dark characters.And for those of us who have relatives and coworkers that are difficult people, the book has some handy tips for handling the "nasties" in our lives we are required to be around.  For example, when a negative person is downplaying someone's accomplishments, this is a good time for you to come on strong with accolades. This tip works like a charm when Uncle John is making fun of Aunt Sue's cooking.I highly recommend the book. Although it is not the be all end all for dealing with emotional vampires, it is a quick reference for zapping the worst of them.
