There are many people who have "steeled" themselves against feeling emotions!. They look like most any other human being and function just fine, but there is certainly something major missing!.!.!. Have they worked so hard for so long to feel as little as possible, that they've shriveled their souls!? (and I am the least religious person you will find)

Feelings ARE messy, sloppy, often inconvenient and (unless you are the one feeling them) foolish to see in others!. But do you really not want to feel the astonishing rush when you realize that someone you find attractive finds you attractive!? If your best friend is hurting, will you willingly say to them, "I really do not care"!? Can you walk past a puppy thats been hit by a car and not shed a tear!? Love and empathy and honor and fortitude beat aloofness and selfishness any day!.

Even feeling bad on occassion is feeling alive!. And that is absolutely amazing!Www@QuestionHome@Com

do not try to dull yourself to anything like that!. The best thing to do is just allow it to wash over you, but do not let it personally affect you!.

EDIT: Try to avoid thoughts like "why me" or "why is this happening to me!?" in fact, it would be best to try this simple trick:

Ask yourself mentally "Am I still breathing!?" and try to focus on just your breathing, if a thought breaks in, acknowledge it, and let it go!.

that will cause a momentary break from our incessant thinking and take our focus away from the mind and thinking and bring it to some other sensory perception!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
