So, for most of my life, I'd say I was pretty empathetic. (I think) So, my parents argue like a ton and my mom will threaten to ACK, and so I would always try to like stop their arguing. Well, last year, my mom was doing it, she had a knife out, and I couldn't get her to stop so I called 999, EMS shows up, and when they get there, she acts totally normal + and admits it was just for attention. Since than, I've noticied i'm just not empathetic at all . I recongise that stuff is bad and immoral but there is no visceral like negative reaction. I have to use reasoning and all that. What is wrong with me and how do i fix it? >do you empathise with your friends I haven't had any since elementary

>>14596237 I understand the being desensitised stuff a bit, but it's even stuff that even just a day before this happened would cause me some distress like footage of conflicts, which used to make me like empathise with the people. Now, my first thought is "wow, cool explosion" and than I have to think about how thats people dying
I've tried making friends but once you are out of the point where it isn't forced (elementary), I just can't connect with people.
>What about online?I've been in 3 online friend groups but it never less more than 2-3 months because I always do something stupid to make it to the point where i'm blocked by everyone in the group chat or something

>>14596201 (OP) i know my situation is nowhere near as bad as yours, as i had two loving parents growing up, but i also underwent a big loss of empathy during my transference from childhood to adolescence (around age 12-14). its not just that it was around the period i started using 4cuck and watching gore a lot, sending it to my friends for gegs, but because i started to realise that most people who call themselves your friends arent your friends at all. whenever somebody would act unjustifiably cruel to me at school, nobody would ever stick up for me, not the people who i spoke to throughout the day and in my free time, not the teachers nor any other classmates. i think a key difference is that for foids, theyre really open with this and its viewed as an actual problem, but if youre a man getting picked on and physically and verbally hurt is just considered a rite of passage. all it did for me was make me insanely resentful of everyone and everything and i stopped feeling empathy for anybody outside of my immediate family, save for very few exceptions, mainly some videos of white kids getting beaten and bloodied by niggers i saw on /gif/.
< when you realise nobody has your back, its easy to start viewing them cynically and with contempt. if anybody who wouldn't stick up for me when i was hurt got hurt themselves, why would i intervene for them? the mindset goes for people on the street too, as they rarely if ever step in when terrible things happen. i could type more on this but this feels more like something for a slowburn board like

>>14596431 I get what you mean, I have my siblings who I'd stick up for and I'd likely even intervene if I saw somebody in danger but that's because of something like natural.
I have to reason that because all humans are made in the Image of God, they have a right to life, aggressing against those rights warrant response, and you have a social responsibility to defend rights.
And I do have good parents, its just they fight a ton

>>14596201 (OP) You dont nessicarily need to feel the other person's emotions to be empathetic at all. All it takes is a basic understanding of why people have the emotions they do. The ability to not get bothered by other people's trauma can actually be a very good thing that can enable you to help others. I dont think its a bad thing at all

i'm really sorry this happened to you OP, this is the prime example of an abusive household<sympathy space the reason you feel like this is definitely a trauma response from that day, i recommend (if this bothers you at all) seeking therapy and trying to get outside and enjoy nature more if/when you can

Like, i try to emulate St. Francis, but it seems quite impossible when he was so empathetic and close to God. Like, St. Francis was the polar opposite of all I am,

>>14596968 slight correction on my part, empathy is feeling the other persons emotions first hand, sympathy is understanding why someone would feel a certain way but not sharing the emotions. regardless, you dont nessicarily need to feel their emotions to be caring or emotionally intelligent is what i was trying to get across. it doesnt mean you're less of a human, just that you've been through more, and there's nothing wrong with that
