I was an abused wife. Very long duration.
I was not me, for a while. It is a defense mechanism to turn off what causes intense pain. I am back. There are risks. But, a good life is worth taking all the chances and being able to feel everything is what being alive is all about.
It gives you the meaning and the definition to feel it all.
Got to love it, no matter what. C. :)!!
You have a wealth of happiness, as well.
You are welcome. Thanks for the 2 pts.

I wish hahaha I am very emotional hahaha but that can be dangerous and you need to put your emotions at bay especially in situation where no positive outcomes are happening for you you need to cut it off and as they cut off the emotion or tie to it if it is making you mentally frustrated and then it become physical you internalze the situation very dangerous...I think example to be used are friendships with others where you are being used and the person really does not care about your well being that is not a friend to me they are for themselves.......unrequitted love when a person shows no love back to you.....and when dealing with difficult people at work or even people you meet getting your lunch can be nasty and have no manners or an ounce of class ignore them like the plague if they can't be nice let it be and keep going :))))

yes
there are times in my life when I get really low and start self-pitying myself (worse thing to do). Sometimes its constantly: like bam bam bam: and when that happens I tend to become numb and ignore the emotions that I am feeling in that particular incident.
I have to say that the way I deal with it isn't neccessarily right, but i just wait for it to pass. I tell myself constantly that you are not a failure and some of the purest moments of truth are when you are at your lowest. Eventually I just build myself up from being so low, but HeY! that is a part of life (lows and all that) and sometimes you go deep, but as long as y ou don't stay there; life goes on.

Yes i have gotten to that point quite a few times in my life. The reason why i felt that way was because i felt way too much pressure. Pressure to please pressure to do what is right, pressure to do what people wanted me to do. And if it didn't work out that way i felt like a failure and wanted to just give up on life. I am the type of person who is usually always happy and when i couldn't please people or thought i wasn't pleasing them it hurt. I didn't want to do anything and i just didn't care.
But then..... i thought to myself life is way too short. Why not be happy. You can't do everything perfect you are not perfect and what good would life be without a little adversity? My heavenly father helped me out! And my dad said, "There's nothing in this world that can't be fixed or worked out be God!" And that really took a big burden off of my shoulder!
Also, thank you and i hope you have a beautiful weekend too.

Feeling no emotion is a way of coping with feeling too much (cumulative) or extremes of emotion. It's a way of taking time out and can be really important in helping to cope or allowing you to cope.
I have dealt with it by using this time to identify and take some action on the cause of each contributing event.
Hope your weekend is beautiful too.

Yes, it happened in 1980, when my mother and I were going to work and some guy stepped out in front of her car, and she hit him, and he died, then my mom got so upset, she had a massive heart attack and died, and I was at the hospital with her, waiting to hear if she was ok or not. I was 3 monyhs pregnant, and I hadn't told her yet. Then I found out she died, and I started to have bad pains like I was going to miscarry, and I went off to another room, and pretended like nothing happened. I never cried. I felt nothing. Still today, I feel nothing.

I do sometimes. Normally I am very emotional, but sometimes it gets too overwhelming, and it kind of just stops. It is disturbing, but it usually stops after I've relaxed. Just take my mind off of everything and try to have a good time.

Yes. The key is to force yourself to care about yourself, and about other people. It's cool to care. There's no way to avoid hurt in our lives. We have to get through all the ups and downs. Enjoy the ride. But always care.

I think that the time where I felt very few emotions was just before I had a very serious illness. That could happen if one repress one's emotions.

Yes. At the time, I'm usually reading or sleeping. Then after I read, I pause to feel something touch an emotion and then I will write about it or speak of it. When I'm sleeping I usually wake up with left over feelings or thoughts to start my day with.
