I can really be depressed and sad but never able to cry! I never get angry or mad I just internalize everything! I have been like this my whole life and quite frankly I am baffled by this emotional numbness! How can I possible get any better when I can't even express and feel the proper emotions? I am a walking zombie, please any suggestions? Can anyone relate or understand anything about this odd behaviour? Thanks for reading in advance!

I can relate to this ,I have bpd and often bury my emotions because i am afraid of being unable to deal with them or don't know how
to.

I can relate to some extent. I may not be able to give you any advice but I somewhat feel this way.

I can relate to what you've described. Anger is an emotion that is pretty much stomped down deep inside myself, and I blame myself for everything. I think it's that I look for escape. Escape from emotions, so I dissociate. However, I allow myself to feel guilt and shame 110% of the time.

I do have BPD, PTSD, as well as a few other mental illnesses though. I continue to fight my tendencies ~ I wish that I could stop, but it's not that easy!
