I don't feel anything anymore, can barley laugh or smile and sometimes cant even cry.

I'm numb to the point where i cant even be a person, let alone a happy one.

I'm sorry your feeling that way, and it's terribly lonely, glad your here sharing. Maybe if you write some more about what is going on in your life and all the feelings around that it may help a bit. Sometimes just writing takes a little power out of our stuff, and know that there are others like yourself at different stages in life who are also dealing with those feelings, and will share with you their own experiences.

Hello Sparkle, you sound very depressed. I've been there too. I used to discribe it as "like watching life through glass". Are you taking any Meds? They could help, even if just for a short time. This will pass. D.

It could be that your on the wrong Meds. I would talk to your Doc and tell him how you feel. Councilling could help too. Also, i find that occupying my Mind, even for a short while, helps. I go for a long Walk, Swim, read a gripping book, paint, do Crafts, Crosswords, anything to occupy my mind. Best wishes Sparkle. 😊✌️🌻
