How to cure anhedonia?

8 posts in this topic

Setting and achieving goals has helped me with this.

Emotional intimacy with people too. But that is unpredictable for me.


There is no failure, only feedback

One small step at a time. No one climbs a mountain in one go.

@Never_give_up Completing cybersecurity certificate recently brought some positive emotion for me. Getting to my goal rank on siege 6 (FPS shooter). Getting better responses with women.

Playing piano is a non goal oriented activity that helps me feel emotions too.

I have no idea what this feels like.  In fact, my problem is I have a strong tendency toward my hobbies and activities.

I never had anhedonia, bit I'm surmising from what I've read that progressing your goals will help you emotionally. It's true in general that progress is essentially what makes you happy.

Try doing a dopamine fast for a few weeks. Stay away from unnecessary technology and take a break from social media and constant entertainment. Cut out sugar and refined carbs, start working out, and focus on eating healthy, nutritious foods.

Give yourself some time away from all the things that constantly keep you stimulated. You’ll start to appreciate the simple things again like listening to music, going for a walk, reading, or just enjoying a quiet moment.

Sometimes, you just need to slow down and give your mind a break so you can enjoy the little things in life again.

 


“God is the Alpha Omega .. the beginning-less  beginning and the endless end . 
He is the first without start . He is the last without end . He is the manifest actuality ..nothing covers him . He is the most hidden essence  ..nothing can grasp him .. nothing below him or more subtle than him .The ego is the belief I’m separate from god . Because being god is too good to be true .No matter how dark it gets or difficult it gets ..no matter how long it is going to take .. my destiny is the infinite happiness and infinite joy and love as the best thing ever ..God .  “

-that’s a me .
