Im not sure why, but I am in this odd time where I feel like i dont care about anything. My great grandmother may be dying soon, and I may be close to losing my girlfriend, but the weird thing is, I have not been stressed. Normally I would be. I love them so much, I should be stressing but im not. This has been going on since school let out, when my best friends were fighting. Is this some awkward teen stage or something, or a result of stress?

If youve been losing interest in things you once loved, thats a big sign of deppression. it might also be your way of coping, showing no emotion. either way, neither of them is a good thing. visit your grandma and try talking to your girlfriend. and try talking to your docter about whether or not this is deppression. i hope you get it straightened out. good luck!

You may be used to stress showing itself in other ways - problems sleeping, concentrating, short temper, etc. However, it is a strong reaction to go from a person who cares about things to someone who suddenly does not.
You have a couple of losses that could be coming up - the death of someone you love, and the possibility of losing your girlfriend. A coping mechanism for some people, perhaps yourself included, is to 'stop caring.' This doesn't mean that you don't logically still love people and care about life, but that emotionally you may be close to being overloaded.
Basically, it's a way to protect yourself.
I don't think it's something that will last forever. I would encourage you to find some way of getting these difficult emotions out. As school has ended, and your best friends are fighting - do you have other friends you could spend some time with? People you can talk to? Activities that can get your body moving and your mind focused?
It's okay that you feel you don't care. It's a normal reaction to a stressful situation. You're still a caring guy who loves these two women, even if you temporarily feel differently.
I wish you the best.

It may be your new way of dealing with things. You don't want to deal with them, so you don't & it doesn't stress you out. However, although this may be working & you're probably thinking "No stress, I love it." I doubt that this is healthy for you.
Yeah, stress is unhealthy & annoying, but an extremely carefree person isn't good either. It's probably a stage that'll pass & I'm pretty sure you'll start caring soon. Maybe talk to a parent about this?

that happened to me once. im not exactly sure if it happens to everyone but i do think it is related with stress. for about a week or two a lot of things were terrible in my life but i really wasnt stressed about it and it didnt affect me as much. i was just ok with it. i dont know if its good or bad but i wouldnt worry about it. it will pass soon. i wish you the best and your great grandmother as well.
