I am recently 15, and I have felt emotionless on and off for 4 years. The longest I have not felt emotions was about a year and a half. Sometimes its short periods. Its not that I just think that I don't feel emotion, it's that I actually don't. I have felt emotion before, but it's almost as if its stopped. I want to feel something, I feel as if I'm a walking statue. Can someone help me find some answers on why this may be happening? (link)

Indifference is common at 15, it is general apathy or the absence of emotion, but it is not usually a permanent state. It may sound like BS to you, but hormones play a HUGE factor in brain health, and what you are going through at 15 isn't abnormal. As a human, you have emotions, you were worried enough to ask for advice in this forum, and worry is simply another form of fear (an emotion.) Also, stop labeling yourself as emotionless, depressed, or use negative words to describe yourself, the way you speak and feel about yourself reflects onto others but more importantly reflects on you and your self esteem. After you are finished with puberty (18 for girls on average) (19 for guys) Get some professional help if it doesn't get better. There are lots of options out there for you, take care.
