Is it normal to feel nothing?

I’ve had issues with my sensitively for a very long time. Everytime I’d hear bad news I’d feel so guilty and responsible that I’d start worrying and crying the whole day away.
I’ve began to train myself to be more thick skinned but I feel emotionless now. Everytime someone tries to talk to me about their problems my brain shuts off and I feel nothing and I don’t know what to say. It’s got so bad that when I imagine my whole family dying or something I feel nothing.

    It happens to many people sadly. Try to train yourself to feel again. If you can't on your own go to therapy.

    I think, once you consider the fact that we are often met with the concept of our own mortality and the mortality of others, it can be very easy to begin seeing death and dismay with an insensitive attitude. So long as you don't feel the same way aftrr the real deatb of a family member, than I wouldnt be too concerned.

    This has become quite normal and prevalent throughout societies.

    There is a very sound reason why this is happening.
    It is because we are living through a time at the onset of a mass-extinction event.
    It is because the world's geomagnetic field is beginning a reversal process; and it is likely that one or more relatively nearby supergiant star(s) has gone into a core-collapse supernova(e) and /or hypernova(e), concurrently. We are simply waiting for the electromagnetic effects from this or these events to arrive, due to space-time relativity.
    It is because of these events, that your DNA has been altered as part of a survival strategy. You had inherited these gene sets from distant ancestors who had survived similar events, in the distant past.

    If you think about it, it makes sense, from a survival perspective. If you are too empathetic during times of crises, it lessens your chance for survival, because you end up spending too much time, energy and resources in keeping other people alive, and /or becoming depressed, dejected and remorseful, at your own detriment.

        And that is why you, and billions of people are going to end up killing yourselves.
        Because you have "no clue" what is really going on in the world and cosmos around you!

        Sadly, you are not just killing yourself, but you are taking many other people with you, mostly through ignorance and negligence!

          Stay WOKE. I opened my 3rd eye and now I know that lizard people are real the earth is dying, and the CoSmos are quite displeasesd with us. If only I could go back to my ignorance.

      What you said probably also explains why alot of people in some parts of town can see someone getting hurt or getting their ass kicked real bad and they often just laugh at it or shug and say "whatever". People in higher crime parts of town have gotten so used to keeping themselves in survival/crisis mode that they really don't give a shit what happens to anyone but themselves.

    It's not normal to feel no emotion. I think you "trained" yourself a little too hard.
