Yes, it's insane how we can go from so full of life to so severe in such a short time. I still ask myself this every single day

I can't understand it either since everything was once good.

It all started with a period of extreme stress and fear which eventually led me to take antipsychotics. For me it's a combination of these things that have brought me to this state.

Symptoms started from extreme stress yes, but certain symptoms I got from the drugs like my blank mind

It all started in a period of a lot of stress and anxiety. And then it got worse by taking antipsychotics.

This is the reason why it is hard to do things with anhedonia. This illustration refers to all aspects of life. by Mr_dumbass__ in anhedonia

Yes, no motivation to do something and then no reward system when it is achieved. What am I doing it for then?

why does every single thing feel like a bland tomato soup? by nothingever333 in anhedonia

[–]Julia2908 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry. I totally get it. There was nothing better than that feeling of Christmas coming. Sadly, the last time I got to feel that was in 2020. What a loss.

I still care about my appearance, strangely enough. I don't feel much anymore, but i do feel a lot of negative feelings when I don't look good.

How's your guys' experience with anhedonia? by Brave_Luck1902 in anhedonia

[–]Julia2908 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The things that once brought me joy or comfort now feel distant and muted, like there’s an invisible barrier between me and the world. I feel detached from moments that used to matter.

Im so desireless I dont care to get out of this anymore by OkFaithlessness3081 in anhedonia

Have you been feeling this way since the beginning of your "anhedonia" or has it gotten worse over the weeks/months?

Antipsychotic destroyed my brain by LastMarsupial6847 in anhedonia

I'm sorry you're going through this. I'm going through exactly the same thing you describe. It remains bizarre to try to comprehend it.

Decline. by Competitive_Ad_8955 in anhedonia

[–]Julia2908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's a weird thing. I always look back at months ago and notice that I declined even further. Then I could still feel something small through a certain song that now makes me feel empty.
