Is it normal to feel no emotions towards others

Okay so I'm suffering from an eating/binge disorder, I'm rarely happy but I can't talk to anyone about it because it makes me feel weak. I'm physically unable to even slightly let show that I'm sad, I would love to actually get the help I need but I can't speak about my feelings no matter how hard I try.

Anyway, both of my friends regularly speak to councillors at school and one of them even has an eating disorder, and despite all of that I literally can't get myself to care about any of them. They could be crying and I wouldn't feel a slight bit of sympathy at all. One of my family members died and I didn't feel anything, despite being close to her and I always argue with my mum and not once do I care if she cries.

It makes me sound like a bitch but I don't choose to feel that way, so I want to know if there is a legitimate reason why so I can do something about it.

    It sounds like you're more logical than emotional. All within the bounds of human normalness! We're a varied bunch.
