anhedonia sucks bad. i have it mildly sometimes now, for a day or two but those 5+ years of not feeling any pleasure ever was pretty bad. for those who haven't experienced it: it's not the same as being depressed in general. it's more like, think of all those little things during the day that are amusing. a conversation with someone. a reddit cat video. whatever, something that is funny or wholesome or whatever. and just feeling no emotional response to those things, sometimes not even intellectually realizing you should be feeling a response to them. everything is just the same all the time. it sucks. and of course since you have no positive emotional reinforcement ever, those things you actually liked doing become worthless
