How do you help yourself when you feel numb?

[TheoreticallyGreat]

I have had so many difficulties this year that I am personally feeling a bit numb at times emotionally. What helps you get through the hard times like this? I am at a bit of a loss.

Sometimes talking it out with someone you trust and will understand what you're up against.
Sometimes things just keep happening, one after another and a person can go numb and not be able to find their way quickly enough before something else happens and before you know it you go numb as a coping mechanism to get through it..
But first I would ask God to help you.. We should all go to God first because he loves us and fights our battles and we don't even know it.

Healing isn't linear. There will be good days and harder days. Be patient and compassionate with yourself.

Each day brings its own challenges. "Yes I began this journey alone, and ended it alone. But that does not mean I walked alone"

Thank you for your compassion Nikki

For me what helps is prayer, I believe having that time with God can help especially provide comfort. Writing to God also helps, like writing a letter to him. Just to me when I feel numb I turn to God for comfort.

You're a 28 year old man and lost? You need to get it together

At a loss, not lost.

I have things quite well together all things considered, thanks.
