Hi PinkPony,

I can relate to feeling nothing when I KNOW I must be feeling SOMETHING somewhere inside. Another trick I pull on myself is to minimize when I do feel something. As in, "oh, I'm only a little sad". Or, "I'm not angry, maybe slightly ticked." Etc, etc.

I am learning, though, it is important for me to draw out my own feelings, then feel them as fully as I can. Otherwise, they linger or morph into another symptom or another affect.

I would encourage you when you think you're feeling nothing to take 5 minutes in as quiet a place you can find, and just sit with yourself. Don't think of anything in particular, but rather just let yourself be, and see if you can identify what you are feeling.

If you can, you may find that just knowing what the feeling(s) is(are) will be a big help. Once identified, you can decide how best to experience and process them. For myself, I don't think it's a good think to let them sit and stew in the unconscious.

Hoping for all the best for you today.
