Is it possible to get rid of anhedonia? I am so, so bored.
>>85574582When did it start and what does your routine generally look like and what have you found enjoyable in the past
>>85574582I try to clean my room be optimistic and listen to music does that help anon
>>85574582you have to overcome the fears that ur old hobbies bring up to when you try em outfears over power positive feelings so everything feels bad when you can only focus on the negative
>>85574591not op, but is it even curable if you felt like that your entire life?This has been my default my entire life so the idea that it can "go away" just sounds ridiculous to me
>>85574582lift weightsrunboth give different highs imo
>>85574582Do stuff Get a six pack in the gym Learn how to cook meals that minmax protein Work part time Go out to random bars you've never been to near your neighborhood and get drunk
most likely not. your default state will always be stasis.
I'd guess not, unless it only started recently. I have been anhedonic my entire life. Not in periods, but as a constant. All the advice is nothing and all the meds make you feel and care even less.>>85574660>>85574938The point of anhedonia is that this actually does not give highs. It's not a lack of things that make you feel good, it's that the things that should make you feel good don't.
>>85574582Anhedonia just like depression will never go away unless you get what you want . In your case , i bet that it is being truly desired by women but it is tricky cause you can never get it because if your suboar genetics . So basically , you are down to two options : either find good solid copes or live your whole life in agony . Some even take the easy way out if you see what i mean .
>>85574660I already do both. I wish the universe would deliver me a clone of my ex to play games and watch movies with or arc a meteor at my head. Enough of this drudgery.
>>85574657I would imagine that it could be potentially seen as a treatable condition
>>85574967>The point of anhedonia is that this actually does not give highsThe point of doing stuff isn't for highs and it's not about doing stuff to feel good, if you can't feel good and if good and bad feel the same to you then just do stuff that is objectively good in the ledger
>>85574582It's counter intuitive but you feel this way because you're too stimulated, not because you're bored. Stop checking your phone or using the internet all the time. Don't use your phone on the toilet or while waiting for something. Go for a walk every day without listening to anything. Start reading books and meditating.
>>85574938>Get a six pack in the gymCant even put into words how unenjoyable this sounds
Just start doing thingsAnhedonia is not a thing, you're just tired of being idle.
>>85574582Yes, just take ayahuasca.I would recommend a heroic dose of ayahuasca. It would help you see your whole life from like an astronaut's perspective.Best drug there is. Mix 4 grams of powdered Syrian Rue with 25 grams of powdered Chaliponga. Make a tea of it, simmer it down to a drinkable amount, filter out the tannins. Drink it. You will experience some crazy shit I promise. Pic related.Get a blender/mixer, a scale sensitive to 0.1 grams, and zip lock bags. And here you get the Syrian Rue and Chaliponga:https://mayaherbs.com/ethnobotanicals/aya-plants/syrian-rue/syrian-rue-peganum-harmala-powder/https://mayaherbs.com/ethnobotanicals/aya-plants/chaliponga/ecuadorian-chaliponga/Good luck and much love! <3
>>85575435>Cant even put into words how unenjoyable this soundsYou just put into words how unenjoyable you find everything. Okay well if everything is all grayed out then sit down and do something boring as shit like your taxes. If everything sucks so bad and all food is tasteless then eat broccoli and chicken breast until you are 10% bodyfat and you're progressing tension overload in the gym then. You're not lying about how boring and anhedonic you are right?
>>85575892I bet you think you are real clever, huh?It is the DOING that is boring, not what you are doing. Which you would know if you weren't some wannabe armchair psychologist
>>85575948>if you weren't some wannabe armchair psychologistI haven't made any pretenses to psychology >It is the DOING that is boring, not what you are doing.Yes so if doing anything at all is boring then it doesn't matter what you are doing. It also doesn't matter if you're not doing anything. So just do stuff that is objectively good in the books. You're not blithely catatonic and looking at a wall drooling out of the corner of your mouth right now, you're being a fussy retard online with a complete stranger. By your own admission this should give you the same amount of stimulation as programming a workout routine in google sheets or some shit. That would be the rational thing to do here if you actually are as you say you are.
>>85575841Where I live, If I ever walked around looking like I loved life like that, people would get pissed off, call me a faggot, try to rob/beat me, etc.
>>85574582i have become such a degen gooner dopamine addict in the pursuit of even the slightest bit of hedonic pleasure that i should be euthanized. i'm no longer human. release is no longer requiring the dopamine and simply existing.
Pregabalin, clonazepam, and LSD
>>85574582Being born into a more quiet and ancient part of the world, it would be impossible to feel that way. Life would be normal. Technology and nefarious information is the sickness.
>>85575892God you just dont get it or this is actually bait
surprised there's only one drug answer ITT, and it's a weird one. microdose LSD and you'll see the world all vivid again, you'll want to explore, childlike curiosity whether that's playing games or taking a walk.alternatively a stimulant like cocaine or MDMA. you'll experience the good feels but by god will you become depleted and feel worse than you do now (yes it's possible, VERY possible )
>>85574582go fight in ukraine
>>85576679Bad advice. The bro just needs like 300mg pregabalin a day. And a 3 tab trip every couple of weeks. Take a .5mg clonaz before the trip so you don't freak. Chill on the beach, lie in bed or something. Listen to music. Remind yourself that life CAN feel good. It's possible.
