📍 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.
