Have tu ever been stuck lacking emapthy?

Not as in like, zombie-faced-no-emotion-prick type of empathy, but más of a, tu generally try to feel happy for someone o about something but it just flatlines into a "meh." sort of thing? I guess it's más so apathy.
o tu laugh knowing damn well that tu had to make it come out whether it be consciously o subconsciously sometimes?

I dunno, it's hard to explain I guess. It's like the older I get the less real laughter comes around. o oddly enough, I can get happy enough but not know how to express it, so it just comes out as a blank/default slate of "*in Kratos voice* BOI, idgaf" sort of facial expression from what I've noticed.
I think I'm some sorta stuck yall XD

Oh, good lord no. I'm at the completely opposite extreme. I've been wracked with crippling empathy since I was born. I am moved so easily and very sensitive, it doesn't even matter which emotions (don't get me wrong though, I am in no way a pushover wuss) It becomes so overwhelming that sometimes it's all I can do to just curl up in my shell and shut down my brain for a while. So count your blessings! I say that half-jokingly of course, having a significant lack of empathy is just as unhealthy as having an overload of empathy. So yep, tu can have TOO much empathy. I become so concerned with others I sometimes forget I even exist, and while that sounds like an altruistic concept, it is not all it's cracked up to be, believe me. My mother told me a great analogy once: tu see someone drowning, but if tu start drowning too, there's no way tu could rescue that someone.
I know It's only natural for people to constantly want to be like someone else and that in and of itself denotes empathy and while there may be admirable qualities in others that tu can take a note from, and while there is always más room for improvement with anyone regarding traits and inner conflict, don't try so hard, treasure and make the most of what tu got first and foremost, don't sell out, stay true to yourself, find your groove, do what tu believe in and amor doing and you'll have a better life....

What makes it even más frustrating is that I'm usually that person who has the biggest uplifting spirit in the world. I can motivate someone else waaaay better than myself, and that's usually how it is sometimes. It's not like I'm never happy o anything, because that's usually the case XD But as of the last like, año o so, I've felt like this. I know that I care about people, it just doesn't feel like it's actually there sometimes, and I don't like having to remind myself that it is...because what the hell right? lol

@pLaStIcSUNDAE oh godddd, I'm so the same way, I can pep talk anyone except for myself and I find I tend to be so much harder on myself than others. The más I think about it, the más I realize I think I've got a self-destructive personality. And while it's probably not done on a cognitive level, at the end of the día it just isn't fair for anyone. Absolutely no one is inferior to anyone. tu seem like a good person, give yourself a break, treat yourself, look in the mirror everyday and tell yourself that you're worth it. Force yourself if tu have to!

Yes, I either have a lot of empathy o moments of siguiente to none. It's usually the former but I've had moments where I can't make an emotional connection to something that would require one.
