Question Emotional Deficit

I've been reading much about the emotional changes in a TBI survivor...Most seems to be that we are more emotional than before our TBI. In my on-line support group, all agree, they are much more emotional and can become agitated much more easily now (post-TBI). What I've started to become concerned with is, I'm by far more often flat or non-emotional. I think maybe I've cried twice in 2 yrs (just a few tears really), when I learned I wouldn't be going back to work and when it was found that my TBI was worse than we anticipated. I feel some emotions, I just don't seem to have any physical or mental response to them.

Anyone experience emotional flatness or know anything about emotional deficits after a TBI?
I've not been able to find any info except for being more emotional not less.
