Im a 16 y/o male
I started to feel less and less, emotional since i was 11 and im now emotionally "dead." I have never told anyone because they'd think i was crazy or depressed. So i hide behind emotional "masks" living each day just for the sake of living. i can count the number of things that i might care to do on one hand, and its like i have to be constantly on guard. physical stimulus doesnt work either, im able to simply ignore pain and arousal. Im wondering if this can be reversed or im stuck like this. any advice is appreciated (link)

I have and still am going through the same thing. I still can't feel deep emotions. I never really even started feeling others emotions either. I pretty much put up a mask to make people think I am "ok", but every once and awhile the mask slips and certain people catch on. It's hard to keep friends when they figure me out but if you keep the mask up you get better at it. I never let anyone get close. when people ask me things i generally turn the conversation into talking about them. Its easy people love talking about themselves. Plus just act happy around your parents. They will probably think you are crazy. If you want a doctors appointment make up another excuse. Surround yourself with people who can express their emotions and just play the part.
I've seen doctors and they havent really given me a reason as to why I am like i am, but that doesnt mean they can't help you. they said I do have some brain chemical imbalances, but nothing for sure. Im told its more likely a personality disorder. It's rough but you get used to it. Another thing I find that helped to tell 1 close friend about it. I mean you really have to trust them. My one "friend" constantly covers for me and it has made social situations considerably better. I have found its better no knows me to well. Some are fascinated and others think I am a freak.
Not to sound even more insane, but there is a girl that for some reason whenever im around her I begin to feel. It's awkward because im not sure what im feeling. I think I was nervous but I havent felt emotions in along time so its hard to remember what some are.
If you can get help from a doctor good, but in case its something you can fix there's some tips on how to make living socially a tad easier. Last alcohol DOES NOT HELP. It feels good, but does not help.
Good luck

I remember playing this zombie game with my brother. You play as a zombie, and you can take your hand off, and literally be the hand, then jump on peoples heads and possess them. You can fart and make everyone unconscious for a bit, You can make your head roll, And I can't remember what else. But it was so fun. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Please help. (link)

I have a problem. It has progressed to the point that I want to cry at work, in front of clients for no reason, but my sadness and desperation. I have reached my limit, I can't take it no more. I don't know what to do, nothing seems to work.
A few years back my life changed dramatically. At the same time I lost my bestfriend and my anchor for her new boyfriend and moved to a place far from everything and every one i knew and started to look for a first job which messed my mind because of my poor self-esteem (got a lot of rejections, and now i'm doing something i don't like. I can't relate to people but I don't blame them, it's just my frown face... I need a friendly shoulder...
How can I pass through the sadness, misery and loneliness if it is a vicious circle? (link)

1. Seek help for possible depression and counseler could do you some real good. Most counselers I've talked to will listen and even suggest how to get past this.
2. If you hate your job find a new one, at a job interveiw sit up straight and answer all the questions they ask you to best of your ability and as confidently as possible.
3. Making new friends sucks, but everyone goes through a point were they feel alone and like they need help. Also the human is a social creature and most everyone loves making friends... so just talk to people, find people you work with... work is where I found some of my best friends. It all starts with saying hi a when you see them. Then depending where you work talk to people if your not much of a talker like me just ask them about them selves. Then when you feel comfortable ask if they wanna grab a few beers after work or catch a game...if thats what they like.
good luck remember that there is help and you won't feel this way forever.

why is important for us to accept and feel the emotion we are feeling? why is bad to be in denial or try to fight it? is it true that if we keep bottling up emotions or feelings we won't really notice the things around us? (link)

Im an 18/m and I am a firm believer in keeping your emotions bottled... I still feel. I just don't like others seeing me upset...Its not like you have to bottle every emotion, you can still be happy and sad just don't go over board.
I agree a little with the people who previously answered this question "no one likes a robot" Also no one likes a person who does nothing except talk about how they feel. Also do you think people that went through the depression or ww2 by talking about how they felt?!? No the gritted their teeth and just went on with life. Some say it is unhealthy to live that way, but so is everything else from cell phones to cigarettes.
My suggestion is that you live according to what makes you happier. If you like to talf about your feeling be my guest.
But if you feel hiding them and burying them then thats ok. Every one dies one day so it really depends on you..

I am seventeen and people always think that I am a couple-few years younger. It used to not bother me, but now it does and I want to change. I am 5'6", tan, brunette, and I wear enough makeup without overdoing it. I dress my age, and sometimes older (not revealing, sometimes conservative.) Are there any make up tips or anything I can change to make myself appeal my age and maybe a little older? (link)

From a guy's perspective you can never really look older than your actually are. Make up helps a bit, but its pretty easy to tell that your young. Also like the other person to answer this question someday you will wish you look younger... i hear it all the time from my family.

i want to get more mental strength .now i take one desesion strongly but after some days it will disappeare .i faced a lot of incidents like that .i want a strong mental power and strong desesion .what will i do (link)

The best way to keep your resolve is to constanly be able to remind yourself why you made the decision. Also I find it easier to keep at something if I feel that I'm doing for good reasons and I will be better for the experiance.
Hope I helped.

Im an 18 year old male and I know what its like to have everything around you feel like its going wrong. What i suggest you do is find the closest person to you and talk to them. DOn;t say everything at first. Start with little things. then gradually move toward the more pressing problems in your life that you would like to talk about. As you relieve some stress things will begin to get better.
