Feeling numb?

This topic was created in the Libra forum by airfive on Wednesday, April 23, 2014 and has 8 replies.
im at a point where I want to say the feeling im having is " I don't care anymore"...its not any emotion really I don't cry...not really over joyed etc its just a "shut off" I m getting over a relationship turned to friendship/ not sure where to go from this point..emotionally I guess..
anyway any other libras have you ever experienced this? why?..and how did you cope? or better yet is there a better explanation altogether what this is if you have an idea...
thanks a bunch for any input..

Currently trying to escape this. A lot of personal soul searching, talking it out with someone that will listen and offer support, finding things to invest my energy into (gardening, gym, reading, helping others), dating (though I'm not having the best luck). I'm trying to find that place of "indifference" with a past relationship and recover from a personal loss from a couple of years back. Be gentle with yourself. Take one day at a time. The hardest part for me is not having the answers to the "why" questions.

My libra ex is currently doing the same. Think it's a bad month for libras in general

I was in a bad spot a couple years ago when I first came here. I felt like I had to understand the "why" and then I'd be able to move on. What I've come to realize is that "the why" doesn't matter as often as we think...especially when looking at something in hindsight.
Sure you can try to learn from the past but you do this by understanding yourself, not the other person. What matters is what IS, not what you want or what should be.
You may never understand why someone did something. All you gotta know is they did it. Then decide what to do from there. I mean really, why do people do most of the stuff we do?
Once you cut someone off, let them worry about them, you worry about you. All the activities, the gardening, movies, dating...are good if you're doing them because you want/like to do them. If it's because that's what someone said would help you "get over" something it'll just keep reminding you you're trying to get over something.

Tell me about it. Very intense inner transformation happening.

I welcome when I reach that point after a break up. It means to me that I'm done and dusted with all the questions swirling around in my head of the "why's" at this point I can really move forward because I really don't care anymore. Even if I were to walk into him with someone else there are no longer any feelings good or bad!
The numbness I get straight after a breakup, this is when all the weightloss comes in and the sleepless nights etc.
Not sure at what point you're at with yours but these both explain how I'm effected but at completely different stages.

I am doing those things because I enjoy doing them. All the craziness and numbness had taken away my joy in doing the things I love doing. I've spent months thinking, searching for answers, going through the push/pull from that relationship. I have allowed myself to be sucked in each time, just for his crazy behavior to continue. You are right, maybe the why questions will never be answered, some things aren't meant to be understood. I wish hindsight would come for me soon.
I haven't been able to fully cut off the situation yet. I know I need to, know it will happen, don't have it in me yet, but feel it coming. I've distanced myself greatly. Honestly, I know I'm wishing on stars that things would work out. Again, you're right, I've been shown what IS and I need to get

I have been like this for years now, I just stopped caring about what anyone thinks, the last time I cried was over 3 years ago and I was so emotional at the time for weeks, its when me and my ex split, since then I put it in my mind that I wouldn't let myself get that low again and since then I have completely shut down my emotions, and I have no clue how to get them back not really sure if I want them back at this point
