Can anyone relate, or is it just me?

@
bpcyclist, I feel that way at this very moment. You've expressed it very well.
The psychotrophic drugs "quiet" part of the brain (at least some of them do). You can't get much quieter than "dead" and "hollow".
I'm talking to my therapist this week about it, so hopefully I'll have some tips for dealing with this.
I hope you're feeling better today.
