I'm not sure I follow everything you just said OP.
My suggestion to anyone that has a person in their life that is bringing them down is to confront that person to de-escalate the drama and failing that to exit that person from your world. Life is too short to put up with someone that is causing you the distress it appears to be causing you. This could be hard if its family or a boss. If this person is your boss then it could require courage and still not might be worth it unless you have alternative work opportunities. But if the person is your friend or a neighbor you might be surprised that many would respond with grace to asking for some space.
If someone is trying to manipulate you away from your chosen beliefs and you don't like that then the simplest response is to not be around that person.
