This sounds like the story of my life. The best way to deal with it is to...leave?

- danilocampos 16y agoIt may be. I can only speak for my experience. For me, being around people who don't share my values is utterly draining. Time you could be spending making magic happen gets spent on convincing other people that magic is worth something. It can be exhausting. You absorb the energy of the people around you. And if the people around you fail to give a damn about the things you care about, you run the risk of losing own energy for it, too. I don't, in the end, know the best solution for your case. But whatever you do, protect that spark that makes everyone look at you like an ear is growing out of your forehead.
