When I was on olanzapine I experienced anhedonia too. Life was grey. I craved sugar and I slept a lot. Right now that doesn’t seem so bad because I am uptight. I was mildly depressed on olanzapine, but at least I wasn’t so acutely self conscious. If I wasn’t afraid it might give me diabetes I might ask to be put back on it.
I hate the negative symptoms far more then the positive ones… it’s torture being held captive in my own skin… frozen and flattened… unable to reach out and feel anything.
Even when I did get the power to tell someone I cared… there was no connection. I started writing letters… I was a pen pall in my own life.
The only thing that really helped me was a med adjustment … if your feeling flattened and disconnected you should try to talk to your doc.
I hope you feel better soon. It’s hard not to give up hope but I assure you… things will get better.
