It serious tempts me to quit my meds sometimes. Even though, I doubt that would help. It’s probably mostly Sz negative symptoms.
I use to enjoy movies, pc games, even Tv to some extent…not anymore. Life is just one big boring pile of ■■■■. lol.
Anhedonia is the worst of the Sz negative symptoms IMO. No joy in life is awful.
I still enjoy food but thats just a good way to gain weight and make my diabetes worse.
AArgh.
In the past I’ve gotten violent off meds, so I don’t do that. The meds probably aren’t causing your symptoms.
I know what you mean though. Occasionally I am happy when my arthritis is not hurting.
It’s the medication! I’ve been on many different anti-psychotic medications and they all seem to give their own level of motivation. It sucks! Dunno if you want to change your meds though so you can have fun again. I started a topic about the exact same thing then afterwards I scrolled down and saw this one too.
Maybe quitting might not be a option, but maybe get to a lower dose? If it has been a long time since you tried reducing your dose it might be worth to give it a try.
When I cut my dose in half it made a world of difference. I’m still struggling some with motivation, but I don’t have apathy anymore.
must suck if you can’t enjoy anything =(
I feel numb a lot but i still enjoy watching a movie with my dad.
