When people ask how I am, I say good, thanks.

That answer costs nothing to give and nothing to hear, which is exactly why I keep giving it.

Most days it is not true. Most days there is a version of me running underneath that one, doing the actual work of getting through the day, and the version that answers the door is just the part I trust people with.

I do not know a better system yet. I am not sure good, thanks has an honest replacement that fits in a hallway conversation.

It's so hard when you have depression and a migraine with a severe prodrome and anhedonia at the same time.

There was one day when I didn't think about death, but it seems that was a very short episode.

Before that, I found out that the insurance company won't pay my family if I decide to end my life, because they won't let me get life insurance due to my diagnoses already being in the database, and they specifically account for cases like this.

So I won't be able to pull off that trick. That upset me.

Learned something uncomfortable about Xanax recently.
I always knew the clinical word for it. I never felt it as true until now.
It is a depressant.

What it does is not lift anything.
It turns the volume down. The noise, the dread, the constant monitoring of every room I am in, all of it quieter.

I am also on antidepressants, at the same time.
Two signals pushing in opposite directions. One trying to turn the volume up, the other turning it down.

And where anhedonia has already zeroed a channel, there is nothing left for Xanax to mute there.
You cannot dampen silence.

Depression already runs the color down to shades of gray.
Xanax does not bring color back.
It just makes the gray less loud.

For years, quieter felt like relief.
It took me this long to notice that quieter and better were never the same thing.

Years into recurrent depression. Learning the difference one relapse at a time.

Another day of complete emptiness, loneliness surrounded by loved ones, having everything I once dreamed of - yet none of it brings any joy, doesn't evoke even a single emotion.

I can't imagine what could possibly bring me joy right now.

#Depression #Anhedonia #MentalHealth #Health #Blog #Thoughts

Woke up to a list of duties and no strength to feel anything about them.

The body keeps going. It cleans, it carries, it answers questions.
A shell that still holds its shape and does what it is supposed to do.
No strength even to fake a smile in the moments where a smile would be the kindest thing to offer.

This is what anhedonia actually is. Not sadness. Absence.

There was one more paragraph here. Probably the best prose I have written in months, courtesy of the thoughts that are not looking out for me.
It is not going public. Some lines belong to me, not to the timeline.

If your mornings look like this, you are not the only one. That is the whole reason I write these posts.

#Depression #Anhedonia #MentalHealth #Health #Blog #Thoughts

On paper, I have everything a person is supposed to want.

A family I love. Work I am good at. A home in a safe country.

And most mornings the colors are still off.

Recurrent depression does not care about inventory.
Seven years of treatment. Therapy, pharmaceutical support in most of its forms.
Some things helped for a while. Nothing has held yet.

The first line of my bio was never a joke.
Some days it is background noise. Some days it is the loudest thing in the room.

There is no lesson here. This is just what daily looks like for some of us, behind the normal posts about servers and browsers.

Still here.

One of the more disorienting parts of living with both recurrent depression and migraine: you don't always know which one is starting.

With migraine, at least the pain shows up - prodrome, then the hit, predictable as weather. With depression, it doesn't have to. Instead there's anhedonia, nothing landing anymore, and thoughts that aren't looking out for me.

That's the actual difference. One hurts and ends. The other doesn't need to hurt to be dangerous.

That’s where I am right now.

Dr Tracey Marks is great, but #anhedonia is not just a symptom of depression. Not for me. She recommends "therapy, medication, or both". Yeah I did a lot of both. And honestly, at this point in my life, I really don't think I am depressed. But I am still stuck with anhedonia, and neither therapy nor medication helps.

You’re not unmotivated. Your reward system is depleted.

Anhedonia — the inability to feel pleasure — is one of the core features of depression most people don’t talk about. Your dopamine system has gone quiet, so nothing feels worth the effort.

Treatment doesn’t just reduce sadness. It brings the reward system back online.

In this Substack, I reveal the sleight of hand psychologists use to domesticate ideas from philosophy and other disciplines by critiquing an essay on nihilism and Anhedonia.

Right now. I'm firing on all cylinders.

But it's not always been this way.

During my brush with cancer, I experienced a state of anhedonia. This is when you no longer take pleasure in the things you used to find pleasurable.

If you are suffering from anhedonia, please know that this state can be temporary. It was temporary for me.

I don't know what pulled me out of it, or how I got myself out of it. Still, it was temporary.

I’m quite a cheery, positive fella. But I think I suffer from #anhedonia, the failure to enjoy anything. I can go to parties, visit beautiful beaches on holidays, eat delicious food, experience great sex, and inside me, nothing much is going on; it’s a black hole.

#PTSD #Anhedonia

I woke up to a weary, sunny day, 
Alive in yet another dreary gray,
The world’s alive in this early May, 
Yet upon my soul it dearly weighs.

I have goals to accomplish today,
Yet I languish with no headway,
In a haze they vanish, ambition betrayed,
And I cannot distinguish how I went astray.

PTSD feels like a cancer on my soul.

TIL the concept of an “opposite” to a #dopamine hit is complex, as neurotransmitters don’t have direct opposites.

However, a state that contrasts with the pleasurable effects of dopamine is #anhedonia, which is characterized by the inability to experience #pleasure.

Hello Fediverse!

:fediverse: :AsSlowAsPossible:

We are a (very slow) movement of idle idealists, who want to save humanity from overperformance.

Please always write our name in correct camel case.

#AsSlowAsPossible

Pressure to perform is the enemy of happiness and the good life for everybody.
Sloth is a virtue.
In this society however, being lazy is also a privilege.
We demand a universal right to be lazy.
Nobody's laziness should create more work for others though. Including machines and "AI".

The aim is to consume less and live more.

very simply put:

#procrastination is when you put off tasks because your todo list overwhelms you.

#avolition is when you can't even do basic everyday tasks like brushing your teeth or getting out of bed.

#anhedonia is when you can't do any basic tasks and can't even distract yourself with time killers, because absolutely nothing can bring you any pleasure.

#lazyness is what giant assholes call any of the above.
