What would happen if a person lost all his emotions?
I am with Ignatious Bowskill. In psychology we call lack of emotion “flatness of affect.” It is symptomatic of some very serious mental illness. Not to be taken lightly. This is not being unemotional like “Bones” on TV. Dr Brennan does get emotional sometimes and when she does the floodgates open. Emotion is an essential part of living. One cautionary note. There are four legitimate emotions: mad, sad, glad and scared. We add some embroidery to get existential angst. Point being something can happen and you feel mad, sad etc. for three seconds. If you feel the emotion longer than that it’s because you decided to hang on to it. Nobody can make you feel an emotion.
How can a person be emotionally void?
Over the past 3 years I have become almost emotionally void. I have seen my uncle who at one time meant some much to me on his death bed, and I couldn't even cry. It's as though i've lost my ability to feel, and care for people. I've had a lot happen in life, but I have over come all of it. And this feeling of apathy is more so a result of my over coming things. At least that's what I think. I have a hard time caring about anyone, friends, family some random person bleeding to death. I can't i've even put my self in situations that are sad and should make me cry, but I just feel emotionally dead. I don't want to see a psychiatrist. At one point in life, I was actually very considerate, and overly concerned for people and their well being, and now i've just had such an extreme shift.
What will happen to people who destroy a person emotionally?
We can only hope they will burn, if you know what I mean. There are people who’s depth of feeling is about as shallow as a dinner plate. They don’t care about hurting someone who does have feelings. it’s sport to them. You have to try to protect yourself the best you can. Karma or “something” will take care of them.
What would happen if a person focused on only dark emotions for a long period of time, or at least as much as they could. Sort of the like the Sith philosophy in Star Wars, what would their face look like or any other features?
What you describe is basically not very different from a severe depression. Not long after they start deliberately concentrating on negative emotions they’ll find that they’re not really able to think positively anymore even if they try. If they deliberately keep feeding that condition, it’ll probably very quickly get so bad that they will decide to kill themself, given that people suffering from severe depression don’t want to be this way and at least try to become a bit happier and still often end up killing themselves.What they’ll look like after that depends on how they choose to go. They can hang themselves where they’ll be found fast and look like the poor sod in the recent controversial Logan Paul video or they can do it somewhere more secluded where half of them will drip on the ground below them before they’re found. Or they can become a mangled mess by BASE jumping without the parachute. I’m sure if you really want to find out what they’ll look like, Google will show you many of the possibilities. Otherwise it’s up to your imagination.Knowing how fucked up severe depression feels, I very much advise you not to try this.
What happens if you bottle your emotions?
You’ll become lonely, your life will be filled with pain (including physical pain), your body won’t serve you as good as it should. You won’t be able to love (you will suppress love too), and, thus, you won’t allow anybody to love you.Soon you will forget the names of the emotions. You will just say to yourself: “I feel bad” or “I feel good”. Instead of “I feel humiliated”, “I feed sad” or “I feel excited”. It will make you unable to digest your feelings forcing them to rot inside you forever.Even when you are around people who love you, from time to time they’ll hurt you. By mistake, unintentionally, of course, just because they are humans. You won’t be able to explain them what you feel, how it hurts you. So they’ll keep doing what they do. Should you explained them once why you are not happy with what they do, they would correct and apologise and care about your feelings. But you will be in doubts if you have any feelings.Being unable to explain to them (and yourself!) why you feel bad, you will urge to find an escape: all sorts of addictions (porn, drags, alcohol, smoking as well as reading strange books, useless blogs or quora articles or watching youtube, listen to loud music, etc, etc). You will escape from people who loves you. You will become alone virtually and, then, physically.Modern society urges men to suppress their feelings and emotions. Every stupid glossy magazine tells you how “a real man” looks and feels. They don’t care how desperate you are being so lonely to match their “masculinity” standards. If you feel bad (and I hope at this point you are still able to feel) I suggest you finding a good psychotherapist. It helps, it works.If you are a man, the therapist should be a woman. Soon you will know that humans (yes, even you) are actually cute creatures which are designed to live in love.

If I suppress my emotions, what'll happen to me?
I did it for a long period of time and I strongly advise against it. I'm not sure what will happen to you specifically, but I assume that at least some of the same ill effects would happen to you like it did me. For one thing, shutting yourself off will make you lose touch with yourself and anyone around you. In a way, I forgot who I was. I lost touch with people. I couldn't relate to anyone. It eventually builds up to where you aren't processing your emotions in a healthy way. You can actually get physically sick, because suppressing your emotions makes you sick emotionally. I didn't do it consciously at first, but because of some things in my past that I won't discuss here, I shut off from myself and the world as a defense mechanism. The problem is, though, you can no longer heal or grow in any way without being in-tune with yourself. Sometimes people attempt to shut off their emotions to shield themselves, but by doing that, you also shield yourself from the good as well as the bad. Like some other users have said, it backfires drastically. I know from experience.
What does it feel like emotionally when you kiss someone?
I think there really is an instance when there aren't any sparks. But, if you're just a really sex-crazed moron, then there'll be sparks regardless of whether you like the person or not. If you're a normal person, & you happen to meet the right person, there's sparks. But, sometimes our emotions can get ahead of us & make us THINK we really like the person; there will be sparks then, too.
