Callous, cold indifference, and such matters

Have you guys ever found yourselves feeling utterly neutral about the world? Like, the end of the world could come and you don't feel like you'd bat an eye? Like you can't be assed to feel anything about what's right in front of you? Like what gets you through the day is routine and habit, and, besides that, there's not really much reason to get off the bed in the morning? Like you're utterly bored, almost to the point of loathing, by everything, and yet, there is nothing in particular that you feel you'd rather be doing?

Meh, don't really care.

My point exaclty.

Yeah, that's usually an effect of my depression. It can mix this and anger, so I feel like I could murder someone and walk away with a clean conscience.

An event that I feel indifferent to is 9/11. Yes, it's a huge tragedy, it kicked off a big meaningless war - but everyone flipped out over here because of the Australian deaths, which were certainly less numerous than the American casualties. While the rest of this country feels entitled to put their grief on the same level as the american people (the country the attack happened in), I just rub my temples and try not to snap at anyone.

Ah, yes, hanging on to victim status. Not the most productive of attitudes.
