Always numb?

Numb. Nothing but empty numbness...


(Her story, Her POV)

I'll never forget that time, and what you did for me. I was hurting so bad, and for so long, I just grew numb. Inside and out, to myself and to others around me. I guess I had just given up, no more emotion, no more concern, no more tears. And you were there, by my side as always. I was empty, void of any more feeling, and I said to you, "I- I just don't know if I can take anymore." And you asked me back, "Take anymore what?" And I said back blankly, "Nothing. Not feeling nothing. I mean, sometimes I wish someone would just hit me. You know, just to feel something again."

Then you just hit me hard across the face. I was dumbfounded, and I reacted venomously, with gut-wrenching rage and tears streaming down my face, "You son-of-a-bitch! Don't you ever touch me again!"

And you looked at me with a sad smile and said, "I'll always touch you."

I feel empty from time to time, i guess keep using distractions

I think most people feel like this at times, I know I do 🙄 Don't think there is a cure, I just try and distract myself and it does pass. It depends how bad it is for you..take care 🤗

You have to busy yourself, exercise is a good way to take your mind off of the mess.

Doesn't help?
