What would be a reason for this being a common theme in one's life? People around you actually do something wrong, somehow get away with it but you become the bad guy? And somehow when a person starts to set boundaries (verbal, emotional and energetic) there seems to be major backlash from other people and just life in general? Almost like an unseen force is "punishing" you for standing your ground?

I would like some real advice on this and not the common lazy response of "well, if you think its happening it will continue to happen." That's gaslighting and unless you give a detailed example on what you mean and how to truly change it (again, in detail)... the comment will be ignored. Thanks.

How does one completely block out other people's energy? How to remove cords effectively and keep from re-cording?

I'm like a sponge, especially when it comes from my family. I will take on their physical symptoms of sickness so I'm constantly cleansing but then if I have to talk to them it comes back. Rinse, repeat.

I noticed it for the first time 7 years ago. I took an online course to learn reiki (yeah, I know. Stupid.).. I was even attuned. When I started practicing on people, I noticed that even though I was cleansing and doing what I needed to do before and after, I was taking on their physical, emotional and mental ailments while they were feeling better. My mentor told me to stop and get in better control of my energy. Well, here I am, after all these years and trying different things, none of it works long term.

I can't take it anymore. Please help!
