Please advise if it's bad to numb yourself so you don't have emotions?

Yes: It is unclear what you mean by "numb yourself" but if it means sedate yourself then it is not good. Question you should ask yourself is why is there need for you to numb your self. For that reason you need to see your pcp or a psychiatrist.
