It could be... well, many things! Maybe you're going through a stressful week or month and this makes you feel tired and, consequently, numb.

Sometimes feeling numb is a way your mind copes with things that seem too overwhelming. Do you feel like you are not as 'in control' of your life as you'd like to be?

I probably feel numb because I have gone through a particularly difficult experience and the numbness I feel is a reaction to it. I haven't fully processed the experience. I haven't come to terms with it. I need help. Numbness could also be a trigger mechanism which is actually unhealthy but works as a 'protective' covering to sustained emotional tension.

Your depression has probably stripped away all your emotional feelings. It'll do that, & has most certainly done that with me in the past.

You're probably feeling numb becausey ou're overwhelmed with stress or anxiety, or just unhappy at this moment in your life. This affects so many of us from time to time. Talking to someone on 7Cups or an online therapist could help, too. Good luck, friend!

Maybe you feel numb because, it's easier than feeling the pain that surrounds you. But, feeling numb has a lot of different reasons not just to avoid feeling pain.

Numbness might be your body or mind's reaction to protect you from a very tough situation. If it's ongoing, you might want to ask a friend, counselor or family member for help.
