Q: Emotional problems

I'm wondering what might be wrong with me.

I feel as though I have a lack of emotion in almost all situations.

I have had family members and friends pass away and I have felt no grievance for them.

Recently my best friend, who I have known for nearly 20 years now, went behind my back and took my girlfriend from me. I've felt no pain or sadness from losing a best friend or girlfriend over it, nor any desire to alleviate the situation.

I also feel a lack of attachment to people I know. From relatives to long term friends.

I am not depressed about my life. I have a full time job, a house to myself, and I can support myself in all aspects.

If anyone can offer any advice I would be appreciative.

You need to see a psychiatrist or psychologist concerning this. There are conditions in which people will detach emotionally from life. You should have someone help you with this.

You can be depressed even though things seem great on the outside. I would seek some help!
