Do you ever feel these days that, well, you dont feel? That things that should be touching you just arent? Like something you would normally feel really depressed about, you just shrug it off? Or the opposite, an occasion which you should be really happy, you're just passive?

Im always like that these days. Theres a lot happening in my life, and Im just like :bored: the whole time. And thats what disturbs me the most, that I dont feel. Why is this? Is this a product of modern society, or something deeper?

Thoughts, comments, opinions please.

I guess its just the fact that ppl have been through many ups and downs and we've been through alot of $hit so why bother anymore? When u r depressing urself everyone says its not worth it but sometimes its like ur heart got stonger, and is gradually building up of stone from what its been through. This doesnt neccessarly have to be a bad thing ..

maybe bcuz ur in shock of something happening in urlife at this moment , that everything else is nothing compared to what happend . thats just my thoughts though, cuz when im shock i start bieng numb for while ...

It could be that when you see a lot if your life, you start to get cold about other things. Maybe get used to it?? Or that after being through so much in your life not everything starts to affect you the way it should.

Or it could be just a phase, a way of escaping the feeling, if you know what I mean. You try and keep yourself distant to save yourself from the pain, and if it's happening to you, I don't think it's because of the way things are nowadays, maybe it's just that you're going through a lot that you got to a phase where you try and pretend like nothing is bothering you. Your subconcious keeps telling you that all of those things are nothing, and you shouldn't worry about them.

Okay, now you probably think that I'm not making sense here!:exp:

With such weather in Oman we can't be cold ..:laugh:

Anyway I think it's normal, so don't worry about it and move forward ..:hyper:

I think that we are going cold.. or at least most of us are. There are many things that would have touched me in the past , but now i feel nothing for. I guess its just the way life is.. after too many shocks and dissapointments.. and hurt.. you just go numb and feel nothing.

its really sad.. cause it could hurt people who surround you.

It could be because you've gone through a lot and you're just not bothered to care about anything anymore. I feel this way all the time, I don't take every single thing seriously, life is too short for that! So, I guess it's normal.

i don't think we are grwoing cold, we are starting to realize that this life is not worth it.

Like you said:

There's alot happening in my life

Perhaps when there is too many things happening at once your way (and many others including me) respond by just letting everything bounce off. You turn off your emotions because you know that if you don't you'll be feeling a diverse variety of feelings, something not many of us are up for!

Sometimes i feel what i wouldn't like to and some other time the opposite: moments to go through, that's life...

nope, were not growing cold... or atleast i'm not... maan im too sensitive i'd react to n e thing heading my way, from something small, to something big... i dont think i'll change, i cant be cold i'm just too short tempered.

Pediatric diagnosis is one of the hardest, reason being is that the child might not be able to express or identify source of "pain" and all that the Pediatrician would hear is sequence of cries. As appose to a normal doctor, who asks the patient and expects a definite precise answer, example (and a gross one):

- So whatcha got there chief?
- Well, I have this heavy cough.
- Any sputum?
- Yeah.
- A lot?
- Aha
- Any color?
- Green.

Right! Now once you recover from what I have just said, become that doctor. Sit down with yourself "the adult patient" and see what is "really" causing whatever you've mentioned. Only then, you would know why you are acting that way.

hello

I think it depends on some factors:


-Getting older
-The life changes around u
-The people u deal with are changing
-Some times the things that u used to do , and then u stop doing them because u dont feel like doing again is because u over did them
- The feeling of trying to find something new in ur life, and try them
- The weather can put u off as well.

this is what i can think so far, because i have been through the same things. and might still be going through :bored:

Thats happening to me too..
When something happens to me, like a happy event which is supposed to make me jump up and down from happiness...my reaction is that I dont feel anything
I've become totally numb n cold..
I guess like every1 said, we realized that life isn't worth it, nottin matters anymore

Solafa got it right: everything changes around us with time and obviously we too. So our feelings and way to perceive things and probably we go emotional on other issues: that doesn't mean we get cold, simply we must adapt ourselves to this passage phase in which we feel like we feel nothing but we're just moving towards something different and new.
