Meh. I've lived at both of the extremes. I still find myself yearning for the days when I was all intensity of emotion to return; even with the pain I liked it better than the dull gray that settled over everything at the other end and won't seem to go away as I try to come back to a better balance.
Actually, the pain didn't exactly stop. A default state of 'blah' isn't quite the same as a default state of 'content'.
I am, of course, not living your life; your pain could well be worse than mine ever was, or your valuation may differ, but I hope you'll take my unsolicited advice in the spirit it's intended.
