I'm starting to feel comfortably numb and that scares me.?
I find that here lately, with all the things going on in the world that I'm becoming ever so numb to it all. Nothing shocks me anymore, humanity's stupidity knows no bounds. I am disturbed that when I hear awful news be it from around the world or in my own town I feel absolutely nothing anymore, I feel no pity no remorse, nothing for the people involved. Am I'm a sociopath? I used to have more empathy but now not so much...I see things like this country being run into the ground and no one seems to have any interests in getting together to stop it, and when I think about it from that perspective I can't help but tell myself...Well we deserve what we get then...And I believe it to be true.
Part of me wants to be able to feel things like I used to...To be empathetic for people...But part of me just feels like I can't do it anymore.
Is there something wrong with me?

:) you sound like a smart person, so you probably already know that everyone sees things differently and that you can't feel feel pity for people all the time! situations that may be worrying to some, may be silly to you and that it doesn't require remorse :') It shouldn't scare you or anything, and I never feel empathy for things I never understand fully, it doesn't make you a socio-path :P

Hi,visit your doctor who will arrange an assessment with your local mental health team,and they can diagnose you,but only professionals can make that assesment. So 1st step docters,then mental health team,and they should get you help if its deemed necessary,In the meantime take care. :)
