The thing is, I'm very young, and I've already been in a near death situation 3 times in my life. Every time this happened, the sensation of living again was just incredible, making your heart beat like an unstoppable engine. But to this point, I feel like every other emotion degraded, where I don't feel anything. I don't care about anyone in the world, except for my family. I don't feel pain, and I can just go on until I pass out. I don't feel compassion toward suffering, nor anger toward those who crossed me. I'll never be amazed by seeing nature wonders, or anything else that should surprise you.
I tried to feel something by doing something unnatural for my personality, but still wouldn't care. I've seen a lot of people reacting surprised to new Iphone, and kept wondering, why is it so emotional for them?
So, am I supposed to somehow fix it? And how?

    Completely normal. I myself went through some fucked up situations, not as extreme as yours but enough to change me and my vision about myself, others and the entire world.

    Just dont close your feelings. A lot of shit can happen in life, but lots of cool stuff happen too ;)

    It's natural after near death experiences for your brain to put you in a state where you no longer fear death. This is to prepare you for dying, but obviously you lived on. Now you're seeking meaning and that's a good thing. Iphones are nice, but they're just things. I encourage you to keep looking for things that will inspire you. Many people unfortunately won't get that. Forget about what you "should" be doing or feeling and do something you find meaningful - or create something if you can't. You still should remain in the realm of logical actions, but this disillusionment is often the inspiration for people to expand their horizons as far as they can reach. If you find no wonder in anything anymore, start studying your surroundings. Learning things can be a powerful source of diversion and lead to some pretty useful skills.
