Question

alright so i just dont feel anything ever and im not depressed cause i dont feel sad or anything as a matter a fact its like i have suppressed all emotions and even if i want to feel them i cant feel them anymore.... do some people just not emotions at all or is something seriously wrong

Answer 1

It's a condition called Anhedonia, which is defined (not quite accurately) as "An inability to experience pleasure."

It is a temporary mental condition, similar to depression, and I suffered from it ENORMOUSLY until I found the cure (after trying Paxil, Prozac, Zoloft, etc. which helped a little, but not for long).

The cure is Fish Oil.  Omega 3 Fish Oils, specifically the ones they sell at Trader Joe's.  Take 3 large pills every morning right when you wake up. Don't skimp!  Take at least 3 pills every morning.  The Omega 3s help regulate serotonin and dopamine in the brain.

You should also be taking a broad spectrum multivitamin (the ones they have at Trader Joe's are good).  And remember to eat lots of food, don't forget to eat.  Don't go crazy on junk food but carbs actually do help foster serotonin.  Eat rice.  Some people report depression lifting completely as soon as they've finished eating a meal that contains rice.

Absolutely cured my anhedonia and my depression.

Good luck!

Answer 7

Have you ever felt emotions?

You say you are not depressed but this lack of emotion can be a sign of depression.

Your system can be just so overwhelmed by what is happening to you that it protects itself by shutting down and not feeling anything.

I would go to your doctor and get checked out.

Answer 8

I rarely show strong emotions, but I think thats just the way I am.

Answer 9

i think that  it is life that dose that to some people  

Answer 10

Your emotions are buried deep inside of you. But I think you're lacking the mental stimulation that brings out those suppressed feelings. Perhaps you should meet new people, or go somewhere exciting? It's definitely worth a shot. You'll never know, unless you try.

Answer 11

you lack empathy... eg. you get caught bashing someone up, you feel something, if you walked by, you feel nothing. you might want to see a therapist... my little cousin lacks empathy - she was born addicted to heroin.

Answer 12

Hi, I know how you feel, I don't feel (or therefore) show emotion, I haven't done since I was a kid, and then it was rare.

Whether its a problem or not depends how you look at it, do I ever feel like I am missing out? Sure, there are times when I wish I had that overwhelming feeling of happiness, but on the other hand the people I know who have that, also have the flip side - unhappiness in bucketsfloads at times.  I don't have either.  Short term I think its  appalling that I can really like someone but just 'accept' it if they decide to move on to pastures new, and let them go with just a wave.  Long term I think I will be OK, deep down I know whatever happens I will be OK with it - and that has to be a positive thing.

When I try to describe these feelings 'to my other self' the word robotic comes to mind. I have no idea what caused me to be like this either.  I am in my 50's now and just accept my 'alrightness' with everything. What I do have is hope - and perhaps that is why I am OK with the present.  

Answer 13

When in doubt - have it checked out...

What you describe sounds like 'flat affect'. Not generally dangerous by itself, but could be treated, if necessary!

Answer 14

I'm sure there's something wrong with your nerves in your brain you must consult a doctor a best one.

you know there's no person that does not have an emotion except who are dead already.

Can you feel the heat of the sun, the coldness when it is cold? Or not at all?  

Answer 15

Some people are just like that..
