What if you just stopped caring?

I'm asking for a friend... (looks around nervously)

I wonder what that's like. I bet it is a little freeing on some level. Not advocating for it or saying it is a smart idea though. Stay in school kids.

I'm just want to shut off my feels for a year. See how the other half lives.

It's not freeing, it is binding. When you don't process your feelings in time and let them out, they build up in your energy and it sabotages you in ways and one day it bursts into something that will force you to change something in you.
Learn how to feel safely instead.

@SW-User That's an incredibly insightful/kick-ass answer. Thanks.

SW-User

@brokensignal Thank you. I've personally experienced it and now I know better for myself.

I can't I've often wish I could just not give a F but I am just not wired that way

brokensignal · 46-50, M

@SW-User Yeah ...I think I've come close a few times, but I'm not wired that way either.

SW-User

@brokensignal I think sometimes depression can push me to a point where I check out a bit but I always still care

brokensignal · 46-50, M

@SW-User Yep. Feel that. Sorry you deal w/ depression too.

SW-User

I have, at least 98%. Give it time and it'll all be gone.

brokensignal · 46-50, M

@SW-User Life is a bucket o' bullshit sometimes. For sure.

SW-User

@brokensignal Sure is.

Caring is the only reason I live, the only thing I wish for.

Dewkissedrose · 46-50, F

I want to stop caring as well. I feel too much.

Do I anyway care?
