Feeling totally numb!

Basically, I wanted to see if there actually is anyone else out there who has an issue with not feeling any emotion, despite knowing you're sad, or angry, or anxious, or annoyed, or whatever it is you are, you just can't feel it. This is one of the most frustrating things, especially when it's over such a long period of time. Crying usually feels so good to just release everything, but I can't even do that anymore! Does anyone else have this problem? This is one of the reasons why I want to SI all the time (asides from guilt). I am so reliant on emotion but recently it's just not been there; it makes me feel like I'm going absolutely crazy!

P.s. sorry for such a long and stupid rant - it's just something I've needed to ask people for sooooo long.

i can totally relate. It sucks, huh
i think part of it is my meds... i used to feel so alive before i started them, but now it's just bleh. i've noticed that i'm starting to get some feeling back, but it's just not as "intense" as before. its weird...

hope you're doing ok :)

There for a good while i was experiencing what you were. I understand your want to just feel something, cause the absence of feeling just makes you go nuts.

Are you seeing anyone at the moment about any of this or taking any medication for it?

I completely understand, I'm going through the same feeling currently. I had a breakdown a few months ago and finally hit my wall of not being able to cope so I totally shut myself down and ever since then I've become completely numb to everything, I feel dead inside. I cut just to feel alive which I've NEVER done before, it was always for a release. I just feel empty and hallow and it's horrible. And I can't cry either which doesn't help any whats so ever. Just know, you arn't alone.

I'm so sorry you're going through that hellobeautiful312. All I can say is that I totally relate and I know how hard and horrible it is to just have no feeling. For the other questions, I'm not seeing anyone or taking any medication even though I've heard meds can make you feel emotionless.

Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world. All things can be mended. Not with time, as they say, but with intention. So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world awaits in darkness for the light that is you.
