Its been more than a year since I have been into depression, suffering from clinical depression, everyday things seems to be getting typical!

If I quicky check the thing I am doing most of the time, is literally sitting alone and watching the roof. Trying to escape the social conversation as much as I can.

Lets just firstly make you understand what Anhedonia actually is:

Anhedonia is the condition where you stop feeling pleasure in the things you used to enjoy earlier.

I have been seeing myself not cuddling with my mother, while I returned so long, not even helping my family even in any thing, because my mood is not allowing me, my brain reward system and the system that generate emotions of compassion, love, kindness is destroyed.

Hence I am unable to realize what should I actually do at a certain occassion. I have seen myself ignoring the stray animals while I used to feed them since my childhood.

Moreover I have found myself not interested in anything, I can’t maintain relationship with someone, I met a lot of relatives also I am not interested in conversation since so long.

Anhedonia has affected my life in several ways:

  1. Unable to Think

2. I am unable to Cry

3. I can’t feel gratitude anymore

4. I am not even afraid, I don’t care about anything happens to anyone

5. I have no more a feeling to do something new in mylife

6. I usually think my life is inclined towards the end

7. Not able to feel attraction for anyone etc. many more

If you are feeling the same, and suffering from anhedonia, please let me know of message me at www.instagram.com/lavi_chaudhry

Actually I am looking for some people who have the same problem as me, because this problem can only be discussed to someone who have experienced it otherwise these things looks like bullshit…..

Please DM me at my Instagram if you are suffering from Anhedonia!
