I've seen some people getting genuinely uncomfortable at the recent discourse. Just wanted to point out there's more than one kind of weird.

Depressed. Depressed weird

That sucks. I'm sorry to hear that. As a life long vet of the Depression Campaigns, i can relate. I don't have any magic words that i can drop that'll magically make things better, but i wish i did. If you don't have someone to talk to, you can bend my ear.

I tried that once. It made my emotions so dead, even the depression was missed.

I know this is anecdotal, but when I was first diagnosed with depression they put me on medicine that made me devoid of feelings like your explanation. Well fast forward a few years and a new doctor. Turns out I'm bipolar, and being on the right medication has been SO helpful and such a night and day difference.

yeah you kinda want to feel something again(?)

Had to go trough several drugs before hitting the jackpot, although I'm also on other meds.

totally get it though
