I am an 18 year old male and I have been a pretty emotionally dead person for...well since my early childhood. And when I say dead I don't mean depressed or really down or anything of that nature. It's nearly impossible for me to feel anything genuine and I can only put a mask of fakeness on so I don't seem so far out. When I was in a psychology class I read about something called anti-social personality disorder and it almost disturbed me how similar the symptoms were to my own character. I've done enough to put myself away for the better half of my life and I haven't felt a shred of remorse or conscience. Anyways, I'm wondering if my lack of emotion is a cause of concern. Nothing brings me joy, pain, or sorrow and I can't even feel love for my own family anymore. NOTHING will make me feel anything and it bothers me. All I feel like is a body and a brain without a soul. Something is wrong with me but I don't know what. I'm a very intelligent person and all it seems I can do is succeed with material things like work while my relationships are built on false pretenses and emotions I never even felt but acted like I did. My question is: If there is anybody somewhat educated about this...what could be wrong with me? Do I have anti-social personality disorder?...and am I stuck with this? (link)

I feel EXACTLY the same way.
Do you feel alone? like your whole life is just an act, like you are constantly wearing a mask and there is no one else in the world who is like you? I do. That is the only thing i feel. i am never happy, sad, angry.... I don't feel ANY emotion. I don't feel sorry about anything i have ever done, good or bad. My whole life is numb.
I think i might have the same thing as you... but since i am 17, it is called something different, concept disorder. anyways... I think it would be interesting to talk to you. I have never met anyone else who thinks like me. It is amazing. email me if you are interested.
