I’ve had this issue on and off for years, though with a stimulant it came easier to do things but I couldn’t feel pleasure from things like taking a nature walk, or even finding enjoyment from storms like I used to.
I figure this also has something to do with my motivation and it’s frustrating, I don’t know what the word for this feeling is.
It’s never associated with sadness or general markers of depression either.
I’d say that this is about the negative symptoms of schizophrenia. I don’t know what type of schizophrenia you have, or if you even have schizophrenia. But if you don’t have it then I have no clue what it could be…
Well, I apparently have Schizoaffective disorder so maybe there’s a link in there, since it has symptoms of Schizophrenia attached with it.
There you have it!
Thank you, I’ll probably do some research on my condition to see for negative symptoms being a thing in there, too.
Anhedonia and apathy, right in the core of sz.
Oh thank you for the proper word for it, well, words in this case.
I also find in these states, doing replies comes difficult, it feels like my brain is having issues with organizing a reply so I’ll pause and erase things multiple times until something comes out.
