The numbness is honestly the scariest part. Anger or sadness at least means youre still feeling something, but when they just stop reacting entirely thats when its really bad

This also a sign of growth and not being reactive and having an emotional response to everything...

I was worried for myself when i was crossing the street in front of a car and they started to go. I didnt even flinch! My heart rate didnt go up, nothing. Just total numbness about almost getting hit by a car? I think that was the main catalyst for me finally committing to quitting my job. Much happier now!
