Sometimes I don’t feel human…?

1

Specifically I don’t believe I have the ability to love. At LEAST half of my brain, half of the time, just doesn’t feel much. I don’t have a large attachment to my parents. I’m not that into any of the relationships I’ve tried. The only person I truly think I could love (in a familial way) is my brother’s girlfriend. She embodies everything I want, so I’m wondering if those feelings could just be fervent jealousy. I am soft and gushy sometimes, but my feeling are like a rollercoaster, if they go up they’re sure as hell going to go down. I also doubt the usefulness of those ‘ups’ so to speak. They make me happy, and I have fun but at what cost? Whenever I’m happy, there’s always the flipside that happens afterwards. (Sidenote: this may cause my inability to love. Huh.) Thoughts, anyone?

up and downs can be dangerous be careful talk to your parents and a therapist about how you feel.

like the other answer, my first thought was sociopathy, because it commonly occurs when someone feels no attachment to people they are supposed to (ie parents, close friends, siblings, etc). but coming from struggling with depression, i definitely understand where youre coming from. sometimes i absolutely feel disconnected to almost everyone. almost as if i wouldnt care if i was all alone and had no one, because they dont really connect on my emotional plane.i think your best option would be to seek treatment for depression. i wish you the best<3
