I am just emotionally dead today.

So being "numb" isn't necessarily a good thing.

You may want it when you don't have it.

But when you have it it sucks.
Thanks for this!

You sound a little down , maybe even depressed , could you maybe have a few pots you could plant and tend ... no meds , I am impressed.. do you have a t.. or a good friend you could spend some quality time with ... kinda get out of the house kind of thing ...

I know what you mean by lost any kind of hope - it's hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel when we feel this way; as easy as it is for me to say it will get better; slowly; it's hard to see this for yourself when you're stuck in a place where you are.

Coma/zombie - yes there are pretty good descriptors for explaining where you're at right now.

I wish your pain would ease.

I know that feeling. The numbness is sucky in the long run. You are never truly numb. You see it, you feel the heat from the fire, but can't access it. thrilling at first but then misery inducing.

You should talk to your psychiatrist about your medications. getting drug advice online is not what PC is for.

I can totally relate to you, OP, like just about completely. Having intense and negative emotions and being so full of negative energy all the time, while having no independence and no control. It's like what is the ****ing point. Of having all of this emotional energy. It's just like being tortured for no reason. And I also frequently have the desire for it to just be gone, to feel nothing. I resent it.

As others have pointed out, I don't think emotionally numb would be all it's cracked up to be. I mean, what's the point of living if you're numb all the time?

I've personally never been emotionally numb. My emotions are so volatile, even on medication.

But I don't want to be numb.
