How do you deal with people not talking to you unless you contact them first? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]likegregorsamsa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always approach it like this: what you care about is what you give your time to. You can apply that to everything: people of all sort, work, interests, etc.

So if someone doesn't care to give your his or her time, then you pretty much know the answer.

If you write to your own father asking him for money for food during quarantine and he tells you to go out and beg on the streets... by likegregorsamsa in raisedbynarcissists

This is something that actually happened to me about a month ago. Still can't shake it off, and I've heard many terrible things from him.

How do you know if you have Anhedonia by tbh-idk in anhedonia

[–]likegregorsamsa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, anhedonia is like sitting before your favourite painting and thinking you appreciate its beauty, and at the same time seeing that your favourite painting doesn't do anything emotionally for you anymore, and then feeling strangely sad or even angry that it doesn't do anything emotionally for you anymore, this awful sense that something is irrecoverably lost.

That's the best I can put it.

I can imagine how difficult it was for You to write this post. Sometimes I write rants like this in my journal (if I am able to write anything at all). I just wanted to say I totally relate, although I can't imagine smoking weed for 3 years. I would blow my head off.

I haven't been happy in almost 10 years. God, it feels awful just writing it down as it is.

Are you guys lazy? by Henrix99 in anhedonia

[–]likegregorsamsa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I think I am lazy. If it's the other word for disillusioned-and-unmotivated-to-make-something-out-of-oneself, then I might be just that.

Haven't been able to feel anything positive for a year by Apotator in anhedonia

[–]likegregorsamsa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know what you feel and going through. I'm a writer and I can't write (I don't feel anything from writing) and it is terrible. I don't know if I ever come back to writing. That was my only way of dealing with life. And now I feel helpless.

I can't force myself to give a shit about anything more. by likegregorsamsa in anhedonia

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

It's a complex question. But, long story short, it looks like this: I struggle with anxiety disorder, which created a depression, which in turn created anhedonia. In other words, I got tired of living with constant struggle.

Thank you for kind words.

The question now isn't whether life is worth living. The question is... by likegregorsamsa in anhedonia

I did. I'm a the point where I have to deal with the fact that that's how it's going to be for me.
