    OP I think you should make an appointment with your GP and speak to them about what you’re feeling.

    Go back home, seek a quiet place, list the things you really care about.
    Then think of the things that make you comfortable Eg family, nice house etc and then remember that those things won’t have come if you didn’t have your family.
    Also, try going away to a new place and you will definitely feel something in your heart for your family cos they won’t in close range.

    In what way does it bother you?

    If it bothers you even a little..... then in a way you do care......

    You probably do care. But in your own way. Which is fine. You might not be aware of what that is yet but so what.

    Not everyone has to be a Hallmark clone.

    Chronic depression can cause the person to not feel any emotions at all, which does sound quite like what you describe. Many people think depressed=sad but that's not true; for many people depression is a kind of grey nothingness - no ups, no downs... just flatness.

    Do you feel fairly satisfied with your life as it is, or does it bother you that you don't have the kind of emotional responses that you believe you should?
    If you're otherwise content, it might just be the way you are, but if it's something that's bothering you - like you feel that something is missing in the way you are experiencing life, talk to your doctor.

    Have you ever spoken to a doctor about this? If there is no underlying reason why you should feel so alienated from your family it needs further investigation. Did you ever have a good relationship with your family or are your feelings something that happened recently?
