See, threads like this bother me. Not because the video disturbed me or upset me. I watched it, didn't flinch or think one way or the other about what I saw. No, these threads bother me because they don't upset me.

I see everyone elses reactions, and know that this is crazy, horrible, and terrible to do, but it doesn't bother me to see it done.

It bothers me that I don't feel. Why is this?

childhood trauma? Just a guess.

At least it bothers you that you don't feel that gut reaction. That's a good sign. Cognitively, you realize something is bad. Now you have to figure out why your emotions are not reacting to the info as well (normally, people react emotionally first and stronger, cognitively takes second place). This probably affects more important aspects of your life than horrible videos. Like, romantic relationships, I'd imagine. Maybe a therapist can help.

I've had a real fucked up life, only 21. Personal relationships aren't hard, but infrequent when it comes to romance. I don't anger very easily at all under any circumstance. I don't feel sadness much, but love, excitement, joy, that is all mostly normal, if anything I get attached pretty easy. I tried therapy, 2 sessions before I got annoyed with it. It felt more like paying 75 an hour to be told I'm desensitized and we'll need to dig deeper yet to figure out why. He said that at the end of both sessions.

might take a whole, but that sounds expensive. Maybe you can try to figure it out yourself, especially if it isn't getting in the way toi much. Anyway, don't be worried that you're a bad person for not emotionally reacting. Its not that. I'd guess you once felt so dark you couldn't take it anymore (it was self protective at the time) and now you're disconnected from those types of feelings.
