Yes, it is. But you have to be careful in doing this. With emotions we learn lessons in life. Without those lessons, we never grow. I cannot tell you how many times I have had something bad happen in my life and I literally turn myself "off". My husband tells me that I am the master of it. But, by doing that, I don't learn how to deal with important situations. Does that make sense? It has backfired on me many times. Now, when something happens that is a terrible event, I Have to muddle through it. Since I have turned away from it so many times, its harder for me to deal with it.
Id on't know if I am making any sense. All I can say is "YES" it is possible to train yourself. Is it a good idea "NO"...it isn't. You don't grow. The end.

You can make an effort to turn off feelings and have success (easier for men than women). but some still exist down deep, and can be poisoning you without you knowing it (physically and how you interact in the world). Sometimes it seems like the best solution cause it's terrible to hurt so badly. But the long run best solution is to take care of the problem, as complex at it may be.

It is very possible to train and reach a state of ... apathy, of being with no emotion, being indifferent to many things or events. When young, people may have lots of emotions, even violent ardent bursts or waves of emotion; when older, people may become more sort of neutral, less urged by some hormones, so much that upon reflection they will miss those times in their life when they had emotions and dangerous bursts of rage and of shame. Exposing oneself much to emotions, and trying and more objectively watching one's own emotions, may bring about a personality state where that which was emotions will end up neither giving warm nor cold. Also, those more oriental exercises, that may be seen as wondrous or even as weird, may prepare the practising person towards a state of calm aloofness that by other people may be seen as sublime saintly or as queer or fancy. The feeling of anger might be overcome through more objective reflection. Also, living a more healthy life may make you more tolerant or peaceful. A method might be that in whatever you will want to do or are supposed to do in your life, you will ever diligently more astutely work for building up, or for more ardently adding up to, some good memories for a future. You will more be thinking that you are experimenting in your life, for your familial life and for your dreamy career, and that your own experiments may succeed or half-succeed or not succeed at all, and while surviving and practising some path of life you will gain more experience, and you will more calmly try and modify the factors in your experiments. But, it may be good to sometimes feel anger, and to be pressed by the strong urge to intervene and to protest; it may make you feel, and appear to be, more alive. In romantic life, emotions, warm frettings and hopes about love, can be beautiful, they can give to your own eyes, to your skin, to the whole of your own person and personality a marvelous glow of healthier life; they can open more for your the doors to more unfolding and to more life; they can be aspects of life that you very much will miss when you become older. Amen. Have a joyful lovely laugh.

No, emotions are hard-wired into our biology and cannot be surpressed. Even if you try, you will feel frustration, and that is an emotion. Learn to live with them, and appreciate their diversity. It's what makes us human!

Yes you can. But it is hard to do sometime`s.And if you do you may stop caring about your self and other`s.And that would be a bad thing.Because feeling`s and emotion`s are what make`s us what we are. And we are all Human.

yes, but emotions are what make us human.. so as long as the emotion is under control.. I wouldn't recommend it. (and if it isn't under control.. I would just seek managing it.. not destroying it.)
