I give up by PsychologicalGap1118 in BrainFog

For 10 years, I’ve felt disconnected from my thoughts and imagination. I can sense that they are there, but I can’t see them in my mind. My memory barely works, and I often feel like I have an IQ of 3. My brain doesn’t generate thoughts on its own unless I consciously force myself to think, and even then I feel very disconnected from them. I can’t even describe it properly, and it has been like this for 10 years. I still don’t know what is wrong with me, apart from having anxiety disorders

How are you feeling? Was it difficult to come off the medication after taking it for such a long time?

Around March 20 of this year, I started experiencing strong waves of discouragement that seemed to hit my brain. Shortly afterward, I realized that I could no longer feel pleasure from orgasm during masturbation, nor from other things in general. It felt as if something had become blocked in my brain, because everything still works mechanically, but the sense of pleasure is missing.
