Mercury:Thank you for that! I'm really not an egotistical person. I simply want to know where I fit in in this life. I have had many similar experiences to the ones you mentioned. Interesting you bring up spiritual/emotional vampires! I have been feeling extremely drained since I started school and I'm not sure what to do. How do you cope with this? Also, I have another question but I'll send you a PM.
The reason I believe I am an indigo child is because of everything I've read about them. I meet the characteristics. The ten most common traits of Indigo Children:
1. They come into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act like it).
2. They have a feeling of "deserving to be here," and are surprised when others don't share that.
3. Self-worth is not a big issue. They often tell the parents "who they are."
4. They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice).
5. They simply will not do certain things; for example - waiting in line is difficult for them.
6. They get frustrated with systems that are ritual-oriented and don't require creative thought.
7. They often see better ways of doing things, both at home and at school, which makes them seem like "system busters" - (nonconforming to any system).
8. They seem antisocial unless they are with their own kind. If there are no others of like consciousness around them, they often let no other human understand them. School is extremely difficult for them socially.
9. They will not respond to "guilt" discipline - (Wait till you father gets home and finds out what you did").
10. They are not shy in letting you know what they need.
Why are these children called Indigo?
Throughout the history of psychology, there have been systems of grouping human behavior. Indeed, often we all seem to fall into "clumps" of behavior patterns, sometimes fun to read about and identify with. These groupings try to identify and correlate human actions in many different ways - undoubtedly searching for some formula that neatly fits everyone into a slot of some kind, helping those who deal with the study of the human mind. Some of these systems are ancient; some are very new. I have been through so many bizarre events and have come out completely unscathed. I've added a link for those who want to read about it.

I've been labeled as ADD and bipolar although I know that I am neither. These are just some reasons. I'm no better than anyone. I think we're all alike but I also believe that each of us is here with a purpose and finding out this piece of information will help me on my journey.
