Any ways to not feel any emotions?

Are there any ways to not feel any emotions? Affordable ones are welcome.

I usually stay calm each day by drinking a lot of herbal teas, specifically green teas, camomile, and peppermint tea. Those three are known for calming effects. While they don't make the feelings disappear, they help me keep them under control throughout the day. At university I tried weed and alcohol briefly, but I found that those made me feel worse once their affects wore off.

With meditation techniques we can focus on something else. The more I focus on something else, the more (in that moment) I am less aware of emotional pain. It's not what you asked, but there's also the ability to feel emotions whilst having them bother us less (bother us less whilst focusing on them, or whenever they're in the background). There's a meditation thread in my signature!

i used to get drunk every day, most of my negative emotions such as shame and guilt went away.

Take psych meds for decades. I'm completely emotionally numb.

In my experience, you can't. I've realized that life is about feeling. It really helps me when I do inner child healing. I've realized all the sinking depression and chronic pain in my life gets a relief when I go into my childhood and cry about it. I think the first few times you do it, it's going to be the worst purges of your life. Everything will hit you like a train. But I have so much relief afterwards. I feel like I have to do it a lot, but it's way better than the constant migraines and depression I had 24/7. I noticed that depression is actually from a lack of feeling. It's because there is usually past trauma all stuck down there, and because it's not felt or acknowledged or love, it takes over. Then you start getting tons of anxiety and depression and migraines and whatever chronic pains.

There isn't really a way to stop feeling emotions, but it is possible to distance yourself from them. The thoughts that are coming into your head need to be stopped dead in its tracks, and replaced with something else. It could be anything really, just stop yourself from indulging in bad thoughts. Just like being on a diet. You don't eat it and there is no "but... :("... you don't think it and the thoughts end exactly when you noticed them.

I used to go for very long walks and listen to music. The physical activity used to wear down some of the tension plus, I'd be very tired when I got home.

Strenuous physical activity I find also distracts my brain. On how different parts of me hurt and how out of breath I feel.

Alcohol tends to numb things for me but, probably not so healthy.

A lot of money to afford being high 24/7.
That would be paradise
