Yes, unfortunately I DO understand. I had that happen a while back -- I was in that "state" for quite some time. I THOUGHT I cared, but the actual FEELING wasn't there. I don't know if it was due to the medications or what. I've been on antidepressants for YEARS, and i don't know if it numbs the emotions or what. Or if I've been depressed for so many years that I've numbed myself -- I just don't know. I've been in and out of therapy for years so -- I just don't want to go back. I don't feel AS numb as I used to -- at least I can cry now and feel joy!

Are you seeing a therapist? If not, I would advise that you do. Continuing to live like this will drive you insane. A good therapist will definitely help you -- it sounds like you're probably dealiing with depression. I wish you the best -- please take care & God bless. Hugs, Lee
