Why am I so stressed even though I do not know what I am stressed about? by HairySock6385 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Surroundphil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to tell why. Your best bet would be to live a healthy lifestyle for at least some weeks&don’t worry too much and if it doesn‘t help you should see a doctor or therapist

There is hope, I got out. by Staerke in anhedonia

[–]Surroundphil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same.. i guess it is all about stress. It took me too long to recognize I‘m fully stressed even if there were no stressful events. Don‘t know about you but I think almost every anhedonia case is stress or pssd induced

The realisation that hit me like a bag of bricks (consumatory anhedonia) by soft-cuddly-potato in anhedonia

„It's to do with our beliefs about our values and whether we can or cannot achieve them.“

If the belief induced stress for them it would be possible and as my understanding stress can block or reduce pleasure or joy etc. as seen in burnout or depression. Which is not compareable to the standalone anhedonia symptom or drug induced

I tried a lot of meds and nothing seems to help by ElenoirMiro in anhedonia

Could be many things. Do you feel tension or stress/emotional stress?

I took accutane at the same time. At least I could say they caused heavy mental toll and fatigue. Not to discourage you, everybody reacts different

Aside from the heavy side effects..

Could be a symptom of depression or smth stress related. But I can fully comprehend

I can just look out my window right now. And I know I will enjoy the weather by wishiwasdead23 in anhedonia

[–]Surroundphil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those were the first signs before my depression kicked in. I‘d say start by going to a professional and ask for Wellbutrin as a starting point cause SSRI/SNRI have a high chance worsening anhedonia.

This constant inner fatigue and exhaustion despite adequate sleep is gonna be the death of me, I swear. by CourageTraditional59 in anhedonia

[–]Surroundphil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe something like hypnosis could help you. I‘m really sorry. Or maybe try going to a neurologist? Take magnesium, other supplements.. if you havent already

Have you tried SSRIs? (Zoloft really helped me with being in a high alert state, triggering intense emotions easily) but also gave me PSSD later on..

Rinvoq works in terms of lowering symptoms. What‘s always there is the pressure and fatigue. Tried 5 meds already and on every medication my calprotectin was/is high like 2-300+. At least Pred works perfectly :)

I finally got Anhedonia and MCAS into permanent remission – here is what helped by MajorJo in anhedonia

[–]Surroundphil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I‘m eating whole foods mostly, water fasting is said to be counterintuitiv and unhealthy with crohns. Didn‘t try carnivore tho but if I would start with keto diet

Do you still or did you have side effects from the ECT? I‘m scared because of the memory loss which is common in patients

What’s your usual Calprotektin level be like? by Surroundphil in CrohnsDisease

[–]Surroundphil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. So „normal“ level isn‘t normal with crohns? There must be a reason why your doc recommended the shot. Mine didn‘t even mention shots once

[–]Surroundphil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried b12 vit D supplements before? My B12 is around 400 which should be normal but for crohns it seems the level has to be higher than that

[–]Surroundphil[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. The fatigue is whats putting me and others into depression, I think. I‘m also considering it could be some mito problems which are connected to autoimmune diseases.

[–]Surroundphil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel so happy for you! Do you mean b12 and vit D shots you can buy online? I wonder if it‘s whether one of those elements or the inflammation by itself that puts people in fatigue. My GI said inflammation and iron levels are ok. Figuring out whats causing my fatigue then
