Re: Anhedona
Hey @Lilyq, could you explain what anhedona is? I've heard the term before but have forgotten what it means.

Re: Anhedona
It's the inability to find pleasure to find pleasure in normally pleasurable activities.

Re: Anhedona
I get long periods of displeasure in things I normally find fun or normally bring a smile to my face. I thought it was just depressive side of things. I didn't know it actually had a name. I also get apathetic about stuff I normally care about. For me, I cycle through these periods and often they follow medication changes (which I've had recently about a week ago).

Re: Anhedona
It's hard isn't it @Queenie I cycle up and down through mood swings. I am better at night though and worse in the morning.

Re: Anhedona
I am the opposite. I really struggle at night and wake up reasonably ok. Nights are the worst for me.
