Do you feel numb?

I hear the term ‘numb’ a lot these days in my learning. I also see people very much numbed out or numbing out, as it seems. There are various reasons why people end up numb. It begins as a coping mechanism of protection and weeks, months or years later we have forgotten how to feel.

Ways we numb can be (in excess of) alcohol, sleep, video games, Netflix, shopping, procrastination, drugs etc. Pick your poison.
