== Definition ==<br />
<br />
[[Emotional detachment]] is a state in which a person is unable to connect with their feelings or show empathy towards others. This can be a temporary reaction to a stressful situation, or a chronic condition such as a personality disorder. It can also be a learned behavior, often developed in response to trauma or abuse.<br />
