What causes a person to be emotionless and depressed?

Hello,

I am here to help with your health queries.

I read about your concern in detail.

You are on Etizolam (Etomine), which helps you to deal with your anxiety. It may sometimes affect your sleep if you are on a high dose and longer duration. If you want to stop, then you must gradually taper off. Otherwise, you will have anxiety and insomnia. You have emotional numbness due to an alcohol history or due to depression. You must continue your above medications as well as try to follow the below lifestyle to get emotionally stable. It will help you.

1. You should do exercises daily for 30 to 45 minutes, like at least going for a walk.
2. You should do meditation for 20 minutes daily; just sit in one place in a comfortable position and try to concentrate on your normal breathing. Do not stop or force yourself to control your thoughts; just let it be. It will relax and make you emotionally stable.
3. You should eat healthy home-cooked foods and avoid junk foods.
4. You must drink enough water.
5. You should spend quality time with friends and family daily or do video calls if you are living away from your family.
6. You should spend time on creative hobbies like reading good books, writing journals, painting, drawing, and learning new skills or language or musical instruments.
7. You should take enough 7 to 8 hours of sleep daily.
8. You must avoid tobacco, alcohol, or any substance abuse.

I hope this has helped you.

Thank you.
