What to do about being emotionless?

Question

I am 27 years old. I was verbally and mentally abused by parents who used to tell doctors I was schizo and that it was all in my head. They say that they never tortured me- that it was the other way around. we get along fine these days and I'm not angry. Here's the problem. I have no emotions. I cannot get angry probably because my parents brainwashed me into feeling like they are perfect and I'm grossly screwed up. Even though I I know its not true I still cannot move myself to feel anger or to feel sorry for myself. I'm never happy or sad and I don't even get the slightest bit sexually aroused no matter what I've tried. I cannot remember things from before I was 17 and although I've lost the pages of my past there still is an index in my brain that tells me certain things that happened and when they happened. A lot of those things were good things, so why is there this mental block? I'm confused!

Answer 1

You have probably repressed all your emotions and experiences into your subconscious before the age of 17 due to great trauma you experienced from being abused out of fear of feeling pain again.

You need to speak to a psychologist or to the one who you trust the most.Only by talking can you release the pain and feel again.

He should hypnotize you in revealing your past.

Answer 2

Go and see a specialist who can give you "cognitive behavourial Therapy".

dont worry about anything, these people will help you recognise how you feel and you will get your emotions back.
