I feel so numb right now (emotionally)?


Question:
I dont want to sleep. I dont want to eat. I dont want to cry. Nothing. Its wierd. I just want to...exsist. I dont know why i feel this way. But everything i think of doing to help my situation doesnt work. Cutting doesnt help anymore, eating only makes me feel worse, I have a horrible time sleeping. I dont know what else to try. I cant figure out the problem that is causing this feeling. has anyone else ever felt this way? what did u do about it?

Answers:
I had had the exact same problem before. It is really
tramatic way to feel. I think its like post traumatic stress disorder. It will take time and meds to get you thru this.
Friends and your Dr need to know.don't be ashamed to tell
them. If you are alone you may feel worse. Sometimes
chatting online will help temp. Have you tried to call a crisis
number in your area, they can come and visit you or just talk.
I didn't tell my friends and I suffered more. I know it feels like no one cares, but you have to reach out to someone please.
Peace.
YOU ARE IN LOVE, JUST HAVENT FOUND OUT.
it sounds like you need a life..not trying to be mean. Get up and do something fun, do it all day until you fall out from being tired. This is called living.
I have felt that way before. You need to talk to a counselor of some kind. I saw a counselor at my church and a psychologist for a few months last year. They helped a little, but I saw this one psychiatrist for like a 30-minute talk and it changed my life forever. He totally made me wake up and do something about my life. It was awesome. Please, please, please get help!
yes, I have felt this way, see a dr.sometimes you cannot get over this by yourself.
I felt the same way last night, and I'm pretty sure it was cause I was not doing anything.



figure out something to do, and try and relax.





video games help (a lot)

-TT.
This sounds like depression. You need to seek help as soon as possible. You will feel back to "normal"! Good luck and keep you head held high!
yea not to be rude but you do need to get a life just get up and go do something usefull or go get some help see a doctor or a phyciatrist.
You sound like I did when I begun to get over cutting last year, people would ask me how I felt and I couldn't tell, because I didn't know how I felt. I got really annoyed that I couldn't feel emotion, and was quite confused and angry for a few hours to a whole day.

You sound like you're taking it pretty hard. You've probably already been told this by someone, but you need to talk to someone. If you feel like you need a vacation or an exit then consider talking to your doctor about getting you on anti-depressants. Nobody likes the idea of medication but its like going on a vacation from the numb feeling, and if you decide to get off them you should feel refreshed and more ready to face any issues that are still unresolved or help identify what you are feeling.

I personally felt like you explained for about a month or two, responding to "how are you" on MSN with "I don't know", insulting a few people, but then I started to get guilty and annoyed and frustrated that I was feeling so blank and it was so abnormal - that was when I talked to my school counsellor, she didn't do anything to help me but she did let me know that the way I was feeling was normal for people who are attempting to self-harm, because of that I told mum I wanted to go to the doctors about my toe (ingrown toe nail), and spent 30 seconds or so discussing that and then about ten minutes talking about anti-deppressants, they really did help me, and after my pack ran out (I was supposed to go see him after about 3 weeks, but he didnt schedule an appointment so I just ran out then stopped taking them) I have not returned to the same feeling of blankness, tiredness and feeling all-on-my-own, I think I needed the anti-d's to give me a break, while on them I wrote a lot, I guess I was figuring myself out, and starting to unblock my emotions, I'm a lot happier now.

I've also learned that I can't let myself sit down and be bored, because then I guess I start feeling sad (e.g. lonely, useless etc.) - try to keep yourself busy, and it might help to write in a diary if you are having destructive thoughts or emotions, as it could help "get them out".

Sorry for the rant, but I don't know if it would help to shorten it.
Well, maybe you did something in your past that you can't belive that you YOU had done that. Or maybe it's just something els. Do you know who Jesus is? Well if you do then good you know what to do, but if you don't let me just tell you this: Jesus had died for you and for all of us he died for all of our sins! Now he loves you and can take the pain away hes not punishing you because of whatever you did but if he is you are in alot of trouble! But anyways he might even be punshing and disapting you (Sorry don't know how to spell that word) but anyways it means that your growing up now and God wants you to make sure you never do it agian! Now for your feeling to go away this is what you have to do: Say a prayer like somthing like this one Jesus I'm sorry for all of the sins I've done I know that you belive in me and you forgivein me even befor I asked for forgiveness but Lord I really need your help now this feeling that I'm feeling I don't want it anymore and so on; on whatever you wanna say ad how you really truly feel and remeber when you pray give all your feelings to God and just forget about it and don;t remeber it no more! And tip one more thing when you go and pray to God you cloes your eyes, have all your faith in him, and when your done say: Amen!


P.S. Ether when your done praying or even starting to pray always say the armer of God: Jesus I pray for the full armor of God, the helmet of slavation, the breast plate of rightousness, and that you would shod my feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace, and for the sword of the spirit which is in your word in your name Jesus I pray amen.


Hope this helps!
