Is it normal to feel "numb"?

Im at the point where so much shit's happened I just don't care anymore. Pretty much im hardly emotional about anything, and instead of caring more about problems or about how people feel I care less and don't feel like there's a point in caring.

    I feel that way right now too. I am hoping it will go away. I try not to dwell on it. I am noticing that little things make me smile.

    It's normal, sadly. But doesn't mean it's healthy.

    The same has happened to me. You need to get yourself to a stage where you can feel but for it not to effect you dramatically. Also a friend had the same thing badly. A family member died and they felt nothing. Dont let that happen

    There is a 'point' in caring.
    It is up to you to decide what that 'point' is.
    Any small contribution, contributes to the greater good.

    You are just depressed that's all. You need to see a doctor on maybe subscribing you an anti depressant like Lexapro or something

    When shit happens try to counteract it by BEING good and DOING good.
    Knowing that your in control and you can make everything better helps me alot!

    You sound like you are depressed and you should talk to someone that you trust or to a psychiatrist about all of the stuff that has been going on in your life. Hopefully things get better for you. I wish you luck.
