For the last few days, I've been feeling sad and just sort having "blank" face on me. I've just been not caring about anything, good or bad. Just sort of "blank" and feeling kind of blah. Not sure if that makes sense or not.

I often find myself not knowing even why I feel a certain way. All I know is I am either sad, mad, or happy and that the extent of it. Anyone else out there feel that way?[/quote]

Apathy? Not feeling emotions?

I get apathetic sometimes, not really caring or feeling about things. It usually goes away though. Does it trouble you?

If you were not always like this, and it is a new thing for you, it's more likely to be a mild case of Apathy as Christina said.

I can relate to your issue at hand since my "apathy" is apparently permanent, but sadly because of that I can't tell you how I would solve that myself. Having said this, I've seen people suffering from this and most of them got out of that state given unexpected circumstances, meaning something you wouldn't think possible actually happening before your eyes, thus giving meaning to your life again.

Apathy can also be a sign of depression too. At least that's what my therapist told me. Once I was treated for depression, I wasn't so apathetic anymore. I WAS able to identify what i was feeling, so it made sense.
