A very simple question - how to get rid of emotions? I don't

And they say teenagers have it easy

Escapism.
Anime, vidya, shitposting, rampant fapping.
You're not feeling stuff when you're spending all your day grinding in some MMO.

Read "Mindfulness in Plain English"
Learn to stop chasing and avoiding things.
Learn to meditate and essentially think of absolutely nothing.

Get depression. Didn't even cry when my best friend killed himself. 10/10 bby.

Take an SSRI. I'm on paxil and I feel like an emotionless robot.

Look into Stoicism.

It's a real world applicable philosophy which was taught by the great minds/philosophers of ancient times, like Cicero, Seneca or even Marcus Aurelius.

One of the most notable quote of stoicism I like:

>"What need is there to weep over parts of life?
The whole of it calls for tears." - Seneca

Came to post this. Alternatively, something like Buddhism might work. The problem here is that stoicism isn't actually about killing emotion

Yeah, but it's definitely much more approachable and easier to implement, imo.

But meditations, buddhism definitely works too. I would also recommend picking up some traditional martial art (Wing Chun, but traditional, not the western version), as the ability to let go of emotions is one of the aspects of martial arts.

Torture is usually good for emotional dampening or threat of loss of life for prolonged period

Work on whatever is making you feel so bad.

Zoloft, I've had two relatives die recently and haven't felt a thing.

>>18688099
no you don't. you just want to be happy again. try to be reasonable.

I don't know if it's a universal thing, but I personally find that when my capacity for emotion goes down when I'm extremely tired. Like, forgo-an-entire-night's-sleep tired.

I actually like myself in that state. I find my self too emotional normally, and that state makes me super chill. I also feel my constant emotional pain less - similar to when I'm drunk.

But then in that state I also feel like I'm physically dying, sooo..

Probably the most unhealthy thing you can do to yourself to induce and extend that state. Can basically feel the years dropping off the lifespan

Believe you me you don't want that, get over yourself.
