Is it normal to feel numb?

I feel numb inside, emotions don't effect me as strongly as I feel they should, I feel like I have to MAKE my self feel something, could this be because of my depression?

Is It Normal?

      • it helped me has weird has that sounds in the beginning it was really bad (pain and whatnot) but once i got used to it i can actually say it helped me allot.
        If you are overweight try to get someone to coach you at least in the beginning but if you don't please do it carefully and progressively (if you need any help ask and i will try to help you)

        • I dunno, man, I've been trying to do it my self for years, and I just feel so ashamed asking someone for help since it's all my fault in the first place. :/

          • but you should get some help at least in the begining because doing it alone is really hard and there is nothing to be ashamed! you are trying to improve yourself even if you are the one that got you there it doesn't matter you are getting out! I know it's really hard but you can dew it. but if you are really ashamed of it you can always begin exercising and changing your eating habits by yourself but once again that is the hard way but if you want i can give you some pointers on how to start

            • Thanks, and I know how to start, but actually making my self keep doing it and stick to the regimen is the hard part. :/

  • No, ur just not a very emotional person. Once upon a time i was like that also. Maybe one day something will draw out those emotions. Don't worry about it this is common and sometimes being under emotional is a good thing and actually can be good in some occupational fields. Hope this helps.

  • It seems like it is due to depression. I remember before I got really depressed i felt this way. Try taking to parents or friends. They help

    • So, this is the precursor to depression? o.o

  • I dont think you are depressed necessarily, though, I dont know you. I rarely get excited over things that I think I should be excited over. Its a stretch, and depends how you feel about this but try reading about your astro sign.
