I'm not happy. I'm not sad. The point is, I have no emotion 98% of the time. It's rare to see me actually be happy and I truly miss being happy about everything.I feel like I'm not even human.I'm not insecure or anything but I just wanna be happy again. I've tried searching it up but I don't find anything relative to what I'm feeling.This has been going on for 1 year. I also feel like this is effecting my beliefs(Losing faith in God),my schoolwork, and my interactions with other people. I've had a good life and not any family problems or self confidence issues but I don't know what caused this. Thank you for reading this..

Dragonflymagic answered Friday April 13 2018, 12:44 am: I'm no expert but my opinion is that it doesn't sound like Depression because of the fact you mentioned not feeling human. That makes it different. I can't say what it is exactly but a professional can tell you. I did a search on line putting in 'lack of emotions not feeling human' and of all the things that came up, each one was some kind of disorder that requires the person seeing a professional and requiring treatment.
One that comes close but may not be it, describes feeling like a stranger to yourself. You didn't exactly say that. Even a counselor told me when I asked if self diagnosing with mental health disorders is possible and they said No. Not even a professional can know after a first meeting that a patient is for certain one kind of disorder and the reason why is that there are so many overlapping same symptoms in so many of the disorders that one one or two traits makes them different. But for your curiousity, heres the one I felt comes closest and of course the articles say to go see a doctor.

But I don’t know maybe you might be feeling lonely without even realizing it? For me no matter the friends and family I surround myself with I still feel alone, I don’t have any emotions and again feel empty.
