“Een simpel gesprek aanhouden kost super veel moeite omdat mijn gedachtes gewoon leeg zijn. Het gevoel van enthousiasme, blijdschap etc voel ik ook niet.”
Cause
In je bol community (Netherlands) member Lululemon, writing in Dutch. Names no cause; mentions having ADHD. Feels on autopilot, thoughts 'just empty' in conversation, no enthusiasm or joy, hobbies no longer interest them, body feels like a shell.
Duration
'Al jaren lang' (for years) at the Sep 2025 post.
Recovery notes
No recovery described. In a Sep 25 2025 follow-up OP says they once started therapy but dropped out over long waiting lists; the main problem is not being able to feel or recognise their emotions, and when talking about feelings their brain 'just decides to stop thinking'. Plans to start small by writing it down. Not medical advice.
