I feel disconnected from everything including my family, communicating my feelings to them is a big challenge for me. I feel detached from myself and my environment, like I am an outside observer of myself.
Also, I noticed that I am unable to move past friendship stage with potential suitor, immediately things get serious, I lose interest.
Nothing seems to excite me, I go about my day-to-day activities but I don’t enjoy anything I do.

It sounds like you’re experiencing emotional detachment from both yourself and your surroundings. Feeling disconnected from your family and finding it hard to communicate your feelings to them can be distressing. Feeling detached from yourself and your environment could be a sign of disassociation, which can be a coping mechanism for underlying emotional distress or trauma.
Also, not moving pass the friendship zone with potential suitors be as a result of your fear for intimacy or commitment from past relationships. It’s significant that you address these emotions with a counsellor who can assist you with understanding the underlying reasons of these emotions so they can recommend ways to cope with them.
Symptoms of depression or emotional numbness may appear as a lack of interest or pleasure in routine activities. It is important to seek support from a mental health professional who can help you understand the emotional rollercoaster you have been dealing with alone.
