Dory, you hit it again. I too feel that way. Sometimes I just don't feel. When I was on cymbalta I thought it was the drug. But I have been off of it now for 5 mons. So it is not it. I always thought it was because of all the lies I was told growing up. I don't know. I remember the whisperings of my family. So now, I just don't feel. It is easier. My sister is this way too. She says not feeling also means you don't get dissappointed by people. I have worked with a ton of autistic children. They feel too much and that is why they cut themselves off from the world. Read Temple Gradeon (misspelled) book. She is a highly intelligent autistic adult that explains in her book how it feels to be autistic. She says it is like living inside a window pane but if you open it too much comes in. They can't filter out all the stimuli in the world so they retreat. At least, that is what I remember. Good book though very interesting. I don't think this is you Dory. Thanks for all your kind words today. It does help. I have needed to talk ....thanks for listening.......
