Is it normal to feel empty???

Sometimes I feel so empty inside that I just don't want to do nothing but stay at home. I have no needs of socializing with people cause I just think of people as nothing but a bunch of sheep and no point in talking with them. Is this normal???

    I just answered a similar question "IIN to not feel emotions". Here's what I wrote, maybe it helps ya:

    I feel the same way you do but I haven't always been like that. My family keeps telling me I used to be such a happy kid when I was little but I can't remember any of it. As far as I can remember I've always kept my distance towards other people because I could never bond with them. I forced myself (or maybe society did) to become friends with at least one person to be considered normal. I know what kind of emotion I should actually feel but I just can't find it in my heart. No matter how hard I try I just can't start to care. Sometimes I imagine beeing alone without any friends but that doesn't scare me, I'm not even sad. It's just nothing, the only thing I feel is emptyness. I guess I'm nothing more than a burden but there's nothing I can do about it.Maybe it's because I had a f*cked up childhood. My father was an alcoholic and a choleric person (not the best combination)and he would beat the sh*t out of my mother on a daily basis and make me and my siter watch. But that's just an assumption though. *beware of the last Sentence. It was sarcasm* "

    I think it depens on whether you feel like this all the time, like me, or just sometimes. If this is just a phase than it's ok. Everyone feels like this from time to time.As long as that emotional state isn't permanent there's no need to worry.

  • Empty feeling are not fun. if you don't like socializing try finding something , an activity that can get ur heart rate up. Running or other excersise, watching a scary movie something physical. Or try writing about the thugs you observe around you, how people are sheep how it makes you feel to not feel anything.... Yeah you get my drift. Just try it, get to know yourself.

    I know how you feel. You may just be very introvert like me. I often do my best to avoid socialising, and at university..believe me, it takes some effort to do. There are a couple people who are exceptions for me, though, and I think it's important to have someone who can take you out of your funk and make you feel like living again.
