Is it normal that i feel empty?

I feel so empty. Like there's no purpose in life. I don't feel sad, or happy, or angry, or anything at all. It's as if my emotions have just been slowly disappearing, and now they're gone. I have no motivation to do anything. I eat once a day, just to keep me alive, I barely shower, I don't talk to people. I stay in my room all day and stare at the ceiling, thinking of nothing at all. I don't talk to anyone, I don't do anything. I don't understand what's wrong with me. It's like I'm a zombie, and I do everything as if I'm in a trance like state. Is this normal?

Is It Normal?

    That is common, apparently. Being that way doesn't make you special or cool if that's what you think though.

      Special or cool? This sucks. It's like being an empty shell. There's nothing further from cool then this.

        Well, sorry if you really do feel that way. The reason I said that is because I see stories like this a lot on here. It starting to make me wonder...

          Did you happen to think that perhaps, this is where alot of people who feel depressed or are struggling through life, go here to try to feel better or get others opinions on their problems when they can't or dont want to ask others about their opinions in real life?

            Perhaps, yes. I did not mean to offend anyone though, and I explained why I said what I said to the O.P.

          Well, there's no doubt that some stories on here are fake, but I doubt anyone would actually lie about this, or even think it's cool.

    Get a plan for your life. Where do you see yourself in 30 years? What are you good at?

    Put aside your pain and race towards something. Anything. By not focusing on the problem, you'll be fixing it.

      I don't know where I see myself in 30 years. I don't even think I'll be alive then.

    sadly its not. i actually went through a period like this a while back. It seemed like i couldn't get any kind of happyness from anything and i would just sit there listening to music all day thinking. Your depressed. Even if you don't have the sad mood going on, your body can tell the strain on your mind. When this happened to me i actually took up shop lifting because it gave me this thrill that i was unable to get anywhere else in life. luckily enough i didn't get caught all those times. I think you should take a real hard look at life and just kinda cry, until you do that you'll never get off that platau your going through. get out of the house and hang out with friends. find something that makes you happy :) also take vitamins. that eating once a day thing fucked me up :/ Good luck :)

      Thanks, I'll try that. And I do try going out sometimes, but I honestly don't have a single friend, so it's not like I have any motivation to go anywhere, since I'll still be alone and doing the same thing as I am at home.
