KG Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I don't know why, but I feel like an empty shell. I don't have a single positive/negative emotion, jus like I'm in some sort of void. I'm working, but have no interest in it. I try to think of my wife, nothing, not even sadness. Same for my son, sadly. And I could care less about anything, anyone. This is so unlike me, and I don't know why. Link to comment

KG Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 ^^Nothing specific to make me feel like this. And I don't think it's the dates...then I might feel down. But this is just nothing....no feelings, totally detached from the world. Link to comment
jengh Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 KG, are you on anti-depressants? Sometimes, after being on them for awhile, you just become completely numb to everything. That happened to me awhile back. Sorry you're feeling like this Link to comment
LittleLost Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I have these moments. They usually last from minutes to several hours. If you're just having this now, it's probably normal. Link to comment

Umlunguusa Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I don't know why, but I feel like an empty shell. I don't have a single positive/negative emotion, jus like I'm in some sort of void.

This is so unlike me, and I don't know why. I feel like that 24/7. but it's usually pretty frightening, so I do end up having an emotion (fear) that I become desperate to replace, so I often replace it with sadness, obsession, or longing. I need help too. Link to comment
KG Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 A good example...my house is trashed! And I don't care. Same with my car...nothing. Link to comment
newlife21 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 i think it is ok to feel like this for a little while. i am not expert, just saying what i think. maybe sometimes our mind do this to us to block us from feeling the real feeling, which should be some strong negative feelings. currently i actively do things to make myself happy, with include controlling my thoughts. if i don't do it, i am usually not too happy, and will start to feel frustrated over many things. i feel that there is a solution to the empty feeling, but you need to work on it. if you don't , it will just get worse. is like, when you are sick, you don't sit there, you take med.

IphigeniaSaysHi Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I think you've been through a lot and you're probably at a point in your life where you're exhausted emotionally! Maybe it's a good thing if it only lasts a little while. We can only take so much. A little apathy might be ok! Cleanse the emotional palette. Link to comment
