Open original source ↗
I was facing a lack of emotion and was unaware to why I was feeling like this. ... my brain feels completely FUCKED. ... My sense of humour has vanished. ... All I can give people is blank stares, because my brain feels so numb. ... there is a lack of everything in my brain.. ... making it hard to laugh, think, talk properly, and just be myself.
