How do you deal with the feelings of numbness?
Understand that the feeling of numbness likely comes from being overwhelmed. There’s only so much your nervous system can take until you begin to shut down. I struggle with the feeling of numbness a lot. As frustrating as it may be, identifying this is very important and can help you navigate through these feelings of numbness. I know it sucks, especially when all you want to do is truly feel, but it will pass, it always does!
Actually the more you obsess about the feeling of numbness and trying to feel something or test whether you feel anything, the more it will stick to you. You have to give up the need to get rid of feeling numbness. And don’t check up on your feelings, give up that pursuit and go do something you enjoy.
I took my numbness as a sign that I need space from everyone and anything in my life that’s caused it and I need to rejuvenate because I’m above my limit. Maybe you’re about your limit too
Thank you very much for the replies! I timk for me its because of my intrusive thoughts..
