Hi ~ When I was about your age ( MANY years ago ) I felt like that too, and it really bothered me. I felt numb to just about everything and no matter what I did, I couldn't get out of that phase.

Like you said, sometimes I had high energy, but yet other times I felt like a slug. I went to work, took care of the house, did all the wifely things, etc., but just didn't know how I felt about anything, what I wanted to do, nothing.

So -- I went into therapy. And BOY -- did THAT help! I sure found out a few things! I realized what I'd been doing to myself for YEARS!! I know my situation undoubtedly differs from yours, but I'd come from a very dysfunctional family growing up and due to that, I was severely depressed!! So therapy helped me immensely and i've been in and out of therapy most of my adult life and I feel like I'm a new person!

Perhaps therapy will help you too. I hope so. Try it -- it can't hurt.
Best of luck & take care. Hugs, Lee
