Yes, I do. Before schizophrenia, I was pretty awkward.
Anhedonia is common with depression and other mental illness
I must have it for years now its bad
I have anhedonia, too. Meditation is currently my favorite “activity.”
Its supposed to be good to meditate
Yea, it’s like the only thing that helps nowadays. If you haven’t tried, I highly recommend it.
I don’t do much of it in a job interrview, eye contact.
don’t wanna creep them out,
especially cuz I don’t even know him/her.
are you saying something is wrong with that?
No ive not tried. I did mindfulness twice but it didn’t do anything for me
Im so blocked emotionally all time
Its real bad

Daze your not the only one i understand
well, that’s good. I try not to mince words.

Mindfulness meditation is harder than concentration meditation. Concentration meditation being focusing on one specific thing, the breath, for example.
never got anything out of that.
tried taking a class, and they knew half the class would drop out.
well, I was one of em.
took another and they were doing OOOMM.
wasn’t ready for that, who is that for?
my meditation used to consist of being aware of my breaths
while running long distance.
does that count?
my daughter did it too.
my son did sprints.
Yea, chanting isn’t my favorite.
Do you remember which other meditations you tried? Imho, meditation IS for everyone.
Exercise is good, too.
