A member asked:
Please tell me what causes emotional numbness?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Often emotional: Numbness starts following a loss or trauma, processing this experience in therapy should help overcome the numbness. If this has been a lifelong numbness it may take longer in therapy to discover the reasons for it. Either way find a good therapist and start learning how to express your feelings.
