American reality star Kim Kardashian has shared her concerns about feeling like she’s “turning into a full robot” with “no emotion” due to past traumas. In the July 18 episode of “The Kardashians,” Kim discussed her mental health struggles with her sister, Khloe Kardashian.
Kim recalled a conversation with her therapist, stating, “[My therapist] was like, ‘You think calm is your superpower. I think you are so desensitized from trauma that you literally are frozen in fight or flight.’” The therapist further explained, “One time in life something happened, and you remained calm, and that worked for you. So you will always choose calm.”
Khloe suggested that Kim’s calm demeanor might stem from the traumatic 2016 Paris robbery, noting that Kim wasn’t always calm before that incident.
“You were never calm as a teenager, in your 20s. You cried about everything. You were bratty. You threw tantrums. Everything stopped after you got robbed because you stayed calm in that situation and you even said, ‘My calmness is what kept me alive,’” Khloe remarked.

In a private conversation with the cameras, Kim reflected on the robbery and its impact on her mental health. She recounted the harrowing experience, saying, “Imagine you’re like, gun to your head, getting tied up, dragged across a hotel room, and the guy, I remember him telling me, ‘Just like, stay calm and you’ll live.’ And I did that.”
Kim acknowledged that her calmness “served me well at that time, and I think it saved my life. But I think I’ve let it get too calm to where people could take advantage of my calmness or I’m just turning into a full robot with like, no emotion.”
