Emotions & Feelings

Is there anything that can switch off the emotions? Any pills or drugs, I don't fucking care, I just want my emotions and feelings to shut down. I want to switch off my humanity.

📍 My Opinion What you are experiencing sounds like intense emotional pain, possibly linked to depression, trauma, or burnout. Wanting to "switch off" emotions is often a sign of being overwhelmed, not weak. While no pill can completely shut off feelings without severe side effects, there are medications that can reduce emotional intensity, anxiety, or intrusive thoughts—but they must be used cautiously and under supervision. You're not alone in this—many people have reached this point and found a way forward with the right help.
Next Steps
➡️ Next Step (What should the patient do next?) Please consult a psychiatrist urgently. You may benefit from a detailed evaluation to rule out depression, PTSD, or other mood disorders. Therapy (like CBT or trauma-informed therapy) alongside medication might bring significant relief. If you're having suicidal thoughts or feel unsafe, reach out to the nearest emergency or helpline immediately.
Health Tips
⚠️ Helpful Tips / Word of Caution Avoid self-medicating or seeking unprescribed substances to numb emotions—it often worsens the underlying problem. Emotions, even painful ones, carry meaning and can be worked through. Healing is possible, even when it doesn’t feel like it now. --- 🌱 You're not alone. Recovery is possible.

Hey I hear how intense and exhausting it feels to carry these emotions right now, and it’s understandable that you just want it all to stop. It can feel like the pain is too much and shutting off your feelings completely would be a relief. But no medication or drug can fully “switch off” emotions without severe consequences, and attempts to numb yourself often end up causing deeper pain. What can help is treatment that reduces the intensity of these emotions so they feel more manageable, along with therapy to help you process what’s beneath this urge to shut down. It’s not about erasing your humanity but learning how to live with your feelings without them crushing you. You don’t have to face this alone, and it’s okay to reach out for help so you can find relief safely. Take therapy. You can connect with me on nine two six six seven two six zero six five.
