I have to agree with Poet. I am alot like you, except that I have had some major stressors to link to my emotional numbness. But, I wonder, alot of people tend to downplay their own emotional turmoils. Could that be the case with you? I mean to sya that many people tend to say, "Oh, well it could have been worse." I know that when I relate to things that happened in my past I think, "Well, it wasn't really that bad, I mean I'm still here." Do you understand what I'm saying? And when I look at the actually writing that I do and listen to my sister retell the stories of things that happened in my past, I realize that I lived through some pretty bad things. Could that be the case for you as well? Just a thought.... Anywhoooo...Seeing a therapist is a good place to find some answers.
