A very wise friend once told me that people who survive a terrible emotional trauma develop a shut off mechanism, which prevents said person from experiencing such terrible emotional trauma again. The unfortunate side effect of this mechanism is that it shuts out the high end of all emotions, including happiness. In short, eventually all things become a shade of grey and you find yourself equally unaffected by the bad, and nonplussed by the good. That same friend also showed me the defence against these things: talk. Never suffer in silence, nor alone. Love yourself enough to lean on someone else.
