Anhedonia from meds

Anyone have any suggestions as to what they do when this happens. I’m flat and cannot feel joy.

I had a anhedonia before I started the meds. I take Wellbutrin

Thanks I’ll ask my doctor about it. I think it’s from the latuda personally but I’m not sure.

I take Latuda too. I think that helps more with the anhedonia than the Wellbutrin does. Has incredible antidepressant quality. I used to take 400 mg of Wellbutrin. Since I started Latuda I only take 150.

I agree that latuda is a good anti depressant. Maybe it’s the lamictal I take. I can’t feel any pleasure or joy from anything and I don’t think it’s from the disease

I’m on 200mg lamictal and it never gave me any side effects

2 years later.

I didn’t realize I had doubled my Wellbutrin in the last two years. Oh well I am better on 300 mg than 150 then.

At some point I was having headaches and my doctor wanted to take me off of Wellbutrin. Maybe that was around that time. It all runs together.

Coffee or tea help boost my happiness for a little while. I’m also taking an anxiety med Buspar and it has antidepressant qualities but I notice I have more emotions on it. Stuff like hot chocolate is supposed to help too.
