I don't know if this is due to depression or something else but I just don't feel anymore. First, let me preface by saying that I have been deeply hurt and disappointed most of my life by everyone I have been close too. I am not overly sensitive nor do I set high expectations on people. My Mom notices it so at least I know I am not losing my mind and making it up. It seems as though the only emotion I feel at times is anger. As silly as it sounds I adopted two small dogs a few years ago and while I do feel close to them and I do feel love for them whenever I feel love I also feel fear, like I am afraid something will happen to them. They have become my comfort and I know to some people that sounds stupid but I never had pets before and they came during a very painful time in my life. I believe they keep me from sinking into depression. I attend Colorado Christian University at home online so I never get out of the house unless it is to walk them or take them outside to play. If I didn't have them I wouldn't leave the house, I just don't care to. Part of this I know is because I married (not my first marriage) two years ago and I found out within 6 months that he wasn't who he said he is and I was crushed. Before that I had issue with feeling too but not as bad. Any advice? Encouragement? Anyone else experience this?
