Answer 1

Maybe your life up to now has been focused on your career and as such you have lacked in alot of other ways. Ignored your social life, people, kept closed up in your world or work and gaining that success that you want. Now that you have it, try and get yourself out there more, meet new people - socialize a little. It takes but one action to regain those things that you have lost. It's deffinately in you, you just need to find it again.

Answer 2

I think the same thing has happened to me. As a kid, I used to be a very emotional, sensitive, caring person, but once I went to high school, I discovered how other people really are (asshats), and that just toughened me up. It's gotten so bad, I don't even really care about children, because I know that once they reach 13 or older, those "once nice" people are jerks like everyone else in the world.

Wait a minute...is that what happened to *me*?

Answer 3

Get with somebody totally nice and kind and gentle and NOT manipulative. Then insulate yourself from the bad folks, even the partly bad selfish folks. Then start trying to feel. Little by little. Learn to trust and feel if and when you can and try to build it. Be honest with him or her and with yourself. Feel, trust, feel trust, get back into yourself. Try to be like a kid again and laugh. I feel that sometimes but rarely.

Therapy first, or take a long break, do something you have always wanted to do. See and taste life !

Find God, seek some counseling to deal with what is bothering you. God bless**********************************************
