Do you know why this is?
There seems to be two kinds of emptiness: visceral and depressive. The visceral type appears to be associated with lack of identity and is present without depression. The other type seems to be associated with the profound and overwhelming sadness that is a part of depression. I'm familiar with this, because I've felt it before (and only) during two severe depressive episodes. It felt like a deep ache that permanently trapped me in the land of nothingness. The fear caused a sense of overwhelming hopeless that felt impossible to get out of. The empty-like feeling that I felt inside my head was due to the distorting despair. When the depressions lifted that feeling disappeared.
