There's a difference between No Emotions and Being in Control of Your Emotions.
Emotional maturity means being centered in yourself instead of being self-centered. Yeah, I know, that sounds like an oxymoron. ... Being centered in yourself means that your thoughts, ideas, actions, conversations, etc… revolve around things other than yourself, but you draw strength from yourself instead of from others. Emotional control can be thought of as a facet of emotion regulation, but refers primarily to attempts by an individual to manage the generation, experience, or expression of emotion, and/or one's emotional responses Alexithymia is condition where a person seems devoid of emotion because they are functionally unaware of their emotions. By extension, alexithymics are also unable to appreciate the emotional motivation of others, and generally find emotions of others to be perplexing and irrational. Emotional stability can be defined as having a congruent transition of emotional states and moderate emotional resilience to environmental influences (or cues). ... The ability to stabilise emotions differs from the ability to regulate emotions. |

Emotional stability refers to a person's ability to remain stable and balanced. At the other end of the scale, a person who is high in neuroticism has a tendency to easily experience negative emotions. Neuroticism is similar but not identical to being neurotic in the Freudian sense.
Emotional self-regulation or regulation of emotion is the ability to respond to the ongoing demands of experience with the range of emotions in a manner that is socially tolerable and sufficiently flexible to permit spontaneous reactions as well as the ability to delay spontaneous reactions as needed. It can also be defined as extrinsic and intrinsic processes responsible for monitoring, evaluating, and modifying emotional reactions. Emotional response is a reaction to a particular intrapsychic feeling or feelings, accompanied by physiological changes that may or may not be outwardly manifested but that motivate or precipitate some action or behavioral response. Emotional balance occurs when we allow ourselves to feel whatever comes up, without stifling or being overwhelmed by it, and learn to accept our feelings without judgment. |

I divorced my X because he was emotionless, kept promising to get help, and 20 yrs was long enough.

It would appear some murderes are devoid of any emotion.

There are many health conditions and medications that cause a "flat affect" .... where a person appears emotionless but in fact their verbal/visual emotions are just not expressed

Sorry, but I only took a few Psychology courses in college, and none of them had to do with whether or not anyone's been found to have zero emotions. Just from my general reading of things related to my major (History of the World, primarily Europe and the US), I get the strong impression that modern psychological theory seems to have centered itself around interpreting emotional responses. Is there a chance that the reason why you find that lack of emotion is impossible in psychology, is because the entire field is based around emotions? Isn't a dearth of what are considered "appropriate" emotional responses, how many psychological "diseases" are defined? |

From what I see, psychopaths either show no emotions, or have no emotions around what 'normal' people would emote about. But in private they may be emotional about the things that they get pleasure from. See stony faced murderers who collect mementos.
Sociopaths may have no true emotions on an issue, but display having emotions as a tool of manipulation. See Politicians and others who collect followers. |

A vegetative state might be as close as you can get to being totally emotionless without being dead. I dont know how you would distinguish between suppressed or blocked emotional response and a natural incapability to feel a particular emotion. If you are functioning at any concious level you have a degree of emotion because the emotion of desire is required to motivate concious movement. I think your research couldn't have been very in-depth if you havent found any reference to a lack of ability to feel the emotions you listed. Fear is one of the strongest emotions and fear can suppress other emotions even if we are unaware of our fear. Just like a lot of our thinking our emotions can be unconscious |

Our emotions define us.
We are not robots. Why anyone would want to be totally emotionless is strange. When we have been hurt by someone we may wish we could turn off emotions because it gives us pain. Since we can't just flip a switch and shut off the heartache we have to figure out a way to gain contentment on our own. Emotion is flexible, even the sadness. To gain control again you have to make an effort to switch the emotion within yourself. Since emotions are purely personal, that can only be done from within. |

Emotionless human is possible

I think this is more a question of neurology than of psychology.

Not sure why you think its not possible. The problem is identifying them.
For example; in the final days with my ex, she admitted to me that she copies the emotions of actors on TV. The reason this came up is even more bizarre. She began comparing our relationship to fictional ones on TV. There is apparently no difference in her mind. A word of advice; no matter how innocent this type of a person may seem, stay the hell away from them. They will INTENTIONALLY do things to harm you, or cause you misery - just to get some perverse pleasure from watching you suffer. |

There has been some proof of an empathy gene or lack there of in some people. There no doubt also is a emotion gene. Some folks are just more emotional, or express or have less control over their emotions than others.

If we were emotion less then we would not be human. And if such a state was possible, it would only be used for something terrible.
Take Manchurian candidate Mark Chapman for example. He had no conscious memory of killing John Lennon. But yet yet expressed sadness that he was dead. |

I was married to an emotionless man.
He kept promising he'd go to counseling, never did. DONE. WAIT - I'm sure he bawled when I got my share of everything. |

Unless your research involves AI sex robots... There are multiple choices of diagnoses in the medical and mental health professions, for persons afflicted with an emotionless state. |
