What happens when you don't feed? | Page 1 | Vampire Guild Home | Guild Forums

I was just wondering, since most vampires I've talked to have either good substitutes or willing donors, no-one really discusses the hunger, or "The Beast". I recently read a thread on the 4 stages of need and many peoples experiences were slightly different.

So I though why not everyone post the longest they've been without feeding, whether psi or sang, and what effects did it have on them during.

I'll post mine :]
Around 5 months but I've had little bits of animal blood in between.
-At first just more light sensitivity and fatigue, I felt like passing out a lot.
-Next came the shaking, always in my left arm and leg, also accompanied by stomach clenching.
-This then turned into conscious seizures/fits and the inability to breathe. My breathing rate would slow down so much it would stop, my throat would tighten and I either forced myself to breathe or passed out. I basically felt like I was dying.
-Then just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, I seizured and then slowed into a delirious state where i thought I was feeding and it all felt so real. At this point my head had become constantly filled with gorey images and evil thoughts. My mind went from only wanting a teaspoon of blood to a whole room gushing full of it Redrum style. It was creepy

So anyways there's my two pence. I hope it didn't bore you to death.

To be honest, I just feel tired. I don't drink a lot of blood, since I don't have a donor, nor the guts to cut myself. ^^'
Anywho, I don't know whether or not it is caused by not consuming enough blood, but I'm quite sensitive to movement and sound. This has all become normal for me, so I don't know.. I have passed out on a few occations as well, and I figure it has something to do with it.

Just a word on cutting yourself for blood: It won't benefit you at all in the long run. It might dull a craving, but all it does is set up an even greater energy deficit because your body will use more energy in order to heal the wound (and make more blood).

I'm aware of that, but I don't have many other ways of getting it. But like I said, I don't have the guts to do it. So my fingers are the ones to suffer ^^'

When I first started out it wasn't anything bad, though this was before i relized I had awakened. I chopped it up all to stress really

Then as I got older and started to notice more changes in my mood
Very bitchy
Annyoed at everything
Hungey all the time
though when I would eat I would feel sick
Thirsty
Again most could be trown into stress or 'girl problems' so I never really cared to much about them. I just ate small amounts and drank alot of water and took medican to try and calm anger outbursts

Then when I was fully awakened but did not have a doner I siwtched to animal blood. Which did little but curve the craving and dull down the mood swings and side effects for about a day. Pretty much got me no where. But once I found a way to get human blood when I needed it, most of the cravings turned into just feeling drained when going without or tired nearly all the time. I also can't focuse on one thing for to long or I get antsy or feel the need to do somthing else.
