Wow. This couldn’t be more true. I enjoy when they are out running errands for an hour or two, so I can unwind or get some stuff done, but a whole night with an empty house makes me feel empty inside.

I think this one might be worth thinking about OP. It doesn’t have to be like that. I find crying to be an important release for emotions and helplessness when faced with some grown up shit. Also laughter has for the longest time been a sort of a hiding place for me. Only in the most recent decade have I found how to laugh from my heart, fully.

I'm in my 30s and do plenty of both, you may want to take pause and self reflect. What in your life has caused a disconnect to your emotions?

I don't know. Me and all of my neighbours listen to the exact same music all the time.

Also the constant emotional (and sometimes physical) abuse was really fucked up. Like how do parents think that assaulting their child is preferable over simply sitting them down and explaining the situation to them and what they did wrong? Kids are humans, they understand reason.
