7 Signs You Are Emotionally Numb

Here are the signs that you are emotionally numb. These complex and yet strikingly understandable signs of emotional numbness stem from the mind’s ability to adapt and change to difficult situations. But that can backfire, and leaving you feeling emotionally numb.

The worst part of being numb is when you so desperately want to feel something, but you can't.

Overly cheerful music for a sad concept

I can atleast say I'm trying to be a better person and not just being aware of the mistakes I made in my life, but to accept what I've done and always intend to change for the better.🙏🖤

i became emotionally numb after a bad breakup and dont have any real friends. so socializing isnt even an option for me. socializing doesnt make me feel better. i rather deal with my thoughts head on and by myself because i dont like people feeling sorry for me.

I look forward to a follow-up video on solving the mentioned challenges in this video!

At the End of the video, I had the feeling that it depicts depression and not just emotional numbness.

Thank you for bringing up the reduced physical sensation as well. No one talks about that as a part of emotional numbness/depression.

Dang. Emotions are super important. They communicate to us. When we feel something we must feel it, validate it ... find the source and then deal with it.
When you aren’t feeling anything.. that’s a sure sign that you have more to deal with than originally thought.
Slow down and dig deep.

Being indifferent all the time isn't really a good thing. Some emotions are surely not worth having, but a few are very very beneficial!

Don’t see the point of living. Can’t feel sad or happy. No sexual arousal or desire for the opposite sex. No motivation. Everyday is just autopilot at work and faking smiles at home and at work. I feel empty. I want to feel sad to release everything and It’s not possible. It is eternal suffering and sometimes I prefer an instant death. If you guys ever feel angry express it. I’ve suppressed my emotions for so many years.

I did not know some of these negative emotions you mentioned feed on themselves.
What I did notice is that she was becoming more and more aggressive. At one point she became like an EVIL chess player. It was at this point that I mastered the teaching of The Seventh Seal movie by master Ingrid Bergman where he portrays a knight challenging Death at chess. Death asked: 'Why do you wanna play chess with me'. The knight answered: 'That is my business'; 'The condition is that you let me live as long as I can stand against you'.
As so it was. I needed time to study this aggressive and second EVIL woman I met in order to save my daughter from the first erratic woman I met in my life many years before.
I managed to do just what the knight did in the movie. He searched for and found a young family he could save from Black Death before Death won the last game of the knight's life.
Luckily, my last gave has not knocked on my door yet!
When Death will call my name, She will find me fully prepared and I won't need to trick Her to buy again some time.
