Yes I have seen a therapist. Didn't really get too far, he liked new age spiritualism but said I can use My God our Father instead to make it personal and for me.
And thank you expatCA. I do need more friends. And repentance is very hard when I have nothing else to lean on. I know I need to
When I felt somewhat that way, I happened upon someone who needed help and caring. Getting out of my self concern did the job. I don't know if you can do that deliberately, but it might just be worth a little effort.
Or get plugged with other believers around you. I went through a hard time and just completely walked away. I was angry at the Lord. My heart was hard and I was stubborn. But as I went out of my comfort zones and really tired to connect with other ladies, their personal stories humbled me. My compassion had returned. I believe God grabbed a hold on my heart through this girl.
It sounds as if you don't think highly of yourself as an individual. God is the only way out of this situation, just ask God in to your life and He will come in to your heart and mind. You have to put your complete faith and trust in Him, subsequently you will see the differences to living a happy and fulfilled life. You will love what the Lord has done in your life and will make you feel good about you which in turn will make you turn to others and share that wonderful feeling, no longer that sadness or numbness or the ominous feeling hanging over you

I don't know if that's the correct term, but what I haven't been feeling describes it well. I have been unable to cry, and unable to feel anything in my life for a while. I have heard God helping us have a soft heart again, but nothing gets through my heart. I Don't get moved by anyone or anything, even crying. I really need help and I am unable to open to God in prayer. I also doubt Gods goodness because he won't help, but that's a lie I cannot break. Do I just force my faith and believe and I'll recover? Any success stories welcome, please help.

I would look into another therapist then, and not someone who uses new age spiritualism or religion to treat his/her patients.
Do you find it hard to feel empathy, remorse, or guilt? Are you able to have any close relationships with people?

Yes to both of those. I have no empathy and no connection. I want it back!
