Is it normal to not feel anything?

For so much of my life I've been lacking the ability to care. I mean, I do worry if a family member has work issues or when a friend is stressed, but about myself? I couldn't care less. I feel nothing but apathy about my existence. I have no drive to work, study, or even have a hobby. I'm just as likely to be asleep or staring at a wall. I just lack the urge to push myself, even to do things I enjoy. I wouldn't mind if I just faded into nothing. I don't plan to take my life, but if it was taken from me by something else, I couldn't care. I picture of happening and I don't feel anything at all. Is that normal?

    This sounds like the silent type of depression to me and I have similar problems. Everyone around me is so eager to get a good career. I feel like most people are just brainwashed slaves of the educational system, that values people who are oh so excited to achieve. It disgusts me and I can't be friends with them, so I don't really have many. I think your numbness is a result of not letting the system control you but also not daring to dream and ask yourself what you like, because it feels impossible to reach.

    Looking for someone like-minded and pretty interested in your personality, so if you want, contact me :)
