It's common to get emotional numbness when you have depression. I really think you should see your GP though, this isn't going to suddenly go away. Also talk to your boyfriend, try and get him on the same page as you at least so he has some idea of what's going on, otherwise he'll feel pushed away
I...I... need more i-information on the situation.

I'm struggling to comprehend this on this rainy Friday morning

Yeah, I know I've been on this crazy ride for years now and now I'm pretty sure it's not going anywhere. I don't wanna see a doctor about it though. Went to see one once and things just didn't work out but it's a long story guess I just find it difficult to comprehend how something thats only in my head can affect me so much
He knows about it, to an extent but i think he just expected me to be more enthusiastic

With all due respect, stop using people to fix your own issues. Nothing good is going to come of it and it only makes things worse.

Do you feel anything at all for him? I remember your previous thread about missing your ex boyfriends and being bored of this guy and it's just *****y tbh.

He must really ****ing love you to forgive you for cheating.

I do, deep down. But i dont really feel much for him at the moment. still, same applies to everyone, friends and family members too its this complete emotional numbness, the world could end and id be like how dull. Ah yeah it was a really stupid thread, i regret it now, was in one of my euphoric crazy moods they are so rare but they make me really reckless and stupid

Most depressives go through apathetic periods (bipolar people often push people away, of course). I should note that I've known people to feel their emotions/senses/drive dulled on certain medications for depression, mind. Whatever the case with you, I hope you're able to move through this; for the time being, however, it would be wise to consider the ethics in remaining in a seriously unbalanced relationship - doesn't strike me as being terribly fair on the poor sod

I'm not on antidepressants, just benzos. not really bothered about ethics to be honest its not like I'm forcing him. he wants me here, now im pretty sure that he'd be unhappy if i left. Besides ive nowhere to go and im really comfortable at his place
hope he leaves your dumb ass.

Disgusting.

Well, you should be, makes no sense to knowingly cause upset/misery

For sure, but it's important/fair to arm him with knowledge

Ah ok, didn't realise there were logistical considerations. In that case you do have a fine line to tread and I can appreciate why you'd be reluctant to lay everything out on the line


Knowingly? I'm not trying to though : ( Well, yes, that too. I've some sort of depression/anxiety and sedatives dependence issues so I impulsively quit my job some time ago. Still, despite everything id hate to break up with him
