As much as I love Bender from Futurama, his quote "Emotions are dumb and should be hated" doesn't quite ring true to me. At first, it was nice to not feel anything when in a depressive episode, but now it drags on.
It hurts. Really, truly hurts to barely feel anything. The emotions no longer have depth; they are like a small scratch that barely penetrates the surface.
Sigh. It's almost nothing. Almost feeling nothing, that is.
But I want to feel. I guess. I'm still not too sure.

I'm certain I don't want to feel the way I did before. It was a tsunami of feelings, hallucinations, and delusional thinking. I don't want to go through what I went through before. I could not trust my mind. What was real, and what was not. It was very confusing. I have been on meds for 4 yrs now. I can still feel emotions, but the other stuff is filtered out. You might want to tell your doctor about what is happening to you.
He may need to make some adjustments. I hope you find the answers you are looking for. Best wishes.
