Has anybody ever gone numb emotionally?

I know this may sound like a silly question, but has anybody else gone numb for a short while emotionally. I don’t know why it gets to that point, but I think it probably has something to do with life in general and all life’s b.s that a person can literally run out of f**** to give. What do you guys think or have you ever felt like this or similar?

Yes, for years when I lived with my parents. I think it's the only way I survived my mother's narcissism.

Yeah, the last 18 months to two years of my marriage. It's a long story but didn't really appreciate where I was mentally and emotionally at the time until I was out of it, nor did I appreciate the long term effects and damage that period of time did

I have. Probably I still am.

What do you mean? What is numb emotionally? Although I read your comment, I am still not convinced I even know what it is, but then I have never run out of F**** (whatever that is) to give. Obviously, I have never experienced such a situation. Pain yes, pain to the point of wanting to turn off, yes, and that resulted in depression which is certainly not numb. So my challenge is conceiving of a situation where I don't have emotions anymore, and although I NEVER use emotions to argue a point, I am still very emotional. Cheers
