ahedonia

I can't feel joy,I dunno why I can't feel anger. I'm not sad or depressed. I broke my ribs,got sick,had weird paranoid feeling when i kicked out a bad roommate. I can't motivate myself much. I keep the house clean,and my critters happy,but not much else. I am so apathetic.why? I dunno.My life seems to be dying.The embers of my passion are fading away.I used to like going online.draw. whatever. I think my mind lost it's resiliancy.I can't take stress anymore.Something in my mind has broken.

Sometimes it feels like exhaustion or like anhedonia. I could have written this OP, actually.

It's clearly anhedonia. Check [url=http://undepress.net/anhedonia-definition-signs-and-symptoms-diagnosis-and-treatment/]signs and symptoms[/url] of this disorder and make sure you'll get appropriate treatment. I hope you'll be able to cope with the problem and situation will improve.
