Empty inside

Have you ever felt empty. Void of emotion. Im not happy, im not sad, I just feel empty. I have no desire to do anything. I don’t care about anything. I think i love my family but I don’t know that I really do. I would never kill myself but I don’t know that I would care if I died. If someone were to tell me I’m a waste of skin I wouldn’t disagree but I also would not agree. I don’t think I would care if everyone left me. It wouldn’t make a difference. I don’t hate myself but I don’t care either. Someone told me i’m full of apathy. That’s probably true. I don’t know why. I’m not the person I was 10 years ago. Im an empty shell. I think I should keep going because thats what is expected of a person. I will smile and pretend like I have all the emotions a person is supposed to have. But I’m not sure if the emotions I used to have will ever come back. I feel like there is no way for them to come back. Emotions hurt more than they feel good. So now I’ve locked myself in an empty room and I might have left the key outside. Does that mean someone may be able to open the door to this room. I don’t know. Maybe the key is in a room of keys and it may take a lifetime to find the one that opens my empty room. Maybe sooner. I don’t really care. Whatever happens, happens.
Life is full of things that will knock us down but we just have to take the blows and pick ourselves up and carry on
@Irishprincess88 find something to fill the empty void

@ExperienceDLT It would be nice if it were that simple. Despite my lack of emotions I still have a very busy life. 6 kids (all being homeschooled), 2 dogs, work, a husband that works 3rd shift and no family to help. I am still living but really only going through the motions.
@Irishprincess88 maybe the stress of all that is just wearing on you
It's depression. You need to find something to help you not feel this way. Get away from whatever/whoever is causing it.

Yes, to my experience you need a shock

@Nanori what kind of shock. I’ve had so many.

@Irishprincess88 emotional, heavy one

@Nanori well my uncle that i was pretty close with recently died. My family all moved away except one and my sisters and mother don’t call me unless they have no one else to talk to. Does any of those count?

A good laugh each day is a great remedy

@AkAtSUki I’m trying that, it seems I force myself for the sake of others. But I truly don’t find anything funny.

You miss interest like me
Irishprincess88 · 36-40, F
@Mero313 I really truly don’t know what would interest me. Things I used to love doing are just there but I have no desire to do anything.
