Have you ever felt empty inside, unable to cry, love, or even connect with your own thoughts? Do you catch yourself going through life on autopilot, feeling disconnected from the world - and even from yourself?

You're not broken. You're emotionally numb. And you're not alone.

In today's overwhelming world, emotional numbness has become a quiet epidemic. From unresolved childhood trauma and emotional neglect, to burnout, anxiety, or chronic stress - many people unknowingly shut down their emotional systems just to survive. But living without emotion is not living at all. It's existing in a fog, cut off from joy, love, passion, and even pain.

In this deeply insightful and accessible guide, psychologist and trauma researcher Garry Lenar explores the psychology and neuroscience behind emotional detachment - why we disconnect from our emotions, how this defense mechanism is formed, and what it takes to begin feeling again.

Through powerful stories, therapeutic insights, and practical exercises, this book helps you:

Recognize the signs of emotional shutdown, emotional avoidance, and dissociation Understand the impact of childhood emotional neglect, PTSD, and emotional suppression Learn how emotional blunting affects relationships, mental health, and self-perception Discover evidence-based methods from trauma-informed therapy, somatic practices, and mindfulness to rebuild emotional awareness

Whether you're healing from trauma, recovering from burnout, or simply searching for a way to reconnect with your feelings, this book offers clarity, compassion, and a clear path forward.

""Emotionally Numb"" is not just a book about pain - it's a guide to emotional reawakening. A return to wholeness. A reclaiming of what it means to be truly alive.
