Hello.

This is my first post, please forgive me if i'm posting it in the wrong area.
My name is Matt and i´m 21yo.
For as long as i can remember, i've never actually felt anything. I respond to situations in a way i think it will work, but i don't actually feel anything.
I've never been in love or actually felt attracted to a girl emotionally. I have some friends but i don't feel connected to them at all.
Recently, i've started to feel anxious and a brutal need of physical human contact.
I'm not sure about what i should do. Should i find help?
Thank you.
Hugs from:
smmath, wife22

Hi Matt,
emotional numbness can be quite debilitating and can be a result of previous experiences,some of them hidden from your consciousness.It might be a good idea to see someone to talk over,try to find the cause and triggers of your indifference
BEst of luck to you

I think you are now entering your feelings, thus your anxiety. It will be scary at first, but very rewarding. You are moving in the right direction. Therapy can help, if the anxiety is over coming you.

I think that some therapy or at least some support from a friend will help you. I can understand how it feels to desire human contact, and that can be a hard thing to deal with, so I think talking to someone will help you.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
