Sleeping but awake. Thoughts?

1

I had a tarot card reading. It was pretty interesting and right on, it really gave me insight on my situation. One thing that I didn’t realise until the reading was that I am ‘sleeping’. Basically the card shows a person sleeping and it means that I shut myself off and I’m like sleeping. Now that I think of it, it is quite true. For quite some times, I feel ups and downs like a roller coaster but at the same time I am numb (emotionally). What do you think? I don’t expect anything particular from this question though, just wanna see what you guys think or give some advices?

PS : I don’t doubt the reading, just wanna get opinions on this situation. Or if anyone had or is in similar situation, I just want to hear it from another person.

Edit: I most probably had depression. It wasn’t professionally diagnosed though because I didn’t tell anyone. I did put myself out there and get involved in things but I’m just tired of it. I feel like with every step forward, I take two steps back. I think so much Idk what to think anymore. I feel like my mental energy is depleting. If that make sense

while i dont believe in tarot card reading, i understand how you feel, that numb feeling is pretty bad, like you just dont care what happens you you anymore. maybe its because your lacking something in your life that can get you excited, or maybe somethings going on that has been bothering you lately. try thinking about when you started to feel this way, that might help you figure out whats going on and what you need to do

From my perspective, it represents the recognition that you are truly asleep, and the beginning of your waking is to come should you pursue it. From my experience, the numbness is a result of having a lack of excitement in your life. Spice things up a bit with a spontaneous adventure, or try something new. I think that doing such will be your first steps towards the beginning of waking up.

I used to feel like that a lot actually, and still do sometimes. I don't know about your situation, but for me it was actually caused by depression. One thing that I found that helped me was throwing myself into whatever was going on wholeheartedly instead of just sorta watching everything in my life go by the same way you might watch a TV show. Let yourself feel however you're feeling, don't question it or push the emotions aside. Just accept it and go with it.
