How long did it take before you were able to feel anything after your start with energy work?

I have tried many things; from tactile imaging, visualization, mudras, mantras, crystals, etc. and I have never felt anything. I cannot slip into any meditative state either. I can be so relaxed that I can't feel my body, but there is nerver a change in how I perceive reality.

It troubles me to hear people talking about their experiences when every experience I've had, or lack thereof, and all intellectual indicators tell me it's all baloney. Why? Because I don't think people are lying, but rather, something is wrong with me.

I am beginning to think I am "broken".
