I get like that when i disassociate....

My mind goes numb and i feel very blank. I guess the key for me is to try and unlock the part of me that i lost. I usually do this by reading the bible because it focuses on bringing out the areas which i've buried ( love, joy, emotion itself).

Perhaps do things that will unlock yourself? On the other hand this might be traumatic for you. For me it is just a relief because I feel whole again and feel like myself.
