Relationship New Relationship With Someone Who Is Emotionally Numb

Not open for further replies.
Hi guys! So I was just diagnosed about 2 years ago with PTSD and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. In my last relationship I went emotionally numb after about a month or so of being in a relationship with him but also had many frequent anxiety/ panic attacks along with the numbness. I really liked him but just woke up one day and felt nothing but fear and guilt and sick to my stomach and of course emotionally numb. I ended up dating him for about a year and a half until all of those "feelings" subsided and I felt as if I could move on/ that I didn't really care about him any more. With that being said, I am currently in a new relationship and have been with him for a little over a month but the thing is that its starting to be a rerun of my last relationship. Before I lost feelings I had felt that I probably loved him but with all of this that has been going on I can't really say that I know what love is or feels like. I am lost and scared because I don't want to lose this guy but I want to be happy and regain feelings. What do I do? Will I ever be "normal"?
