I am struggling with anhedonia. Everyday feels like struggle, nothing brings joy. I dont know what to do. I wanna enjoy my life, experience pleasure, joy, happiness, but I am stuck with anxiety, anhedonia and other mental health problems.

Im sorry you are struggling. You are certainly not alone in these things. I too suffered from anxiety, which led to loss of motivation because nothing seemed to bring enjoyment. When pleasure and fun has gone out of everything, it's hard to feel inspired.

I encourage you to find small bits of positivity. It felt stupid and fake when I first started on this positivity path to recovery, but I'm noticeably happier, so it may be worth a go.

Because, you know, you are important. And you didn't deserve whatever made things hard for you. It will pass, if you wait it out, and then hopefully you can get on with enjoying your life.

Thank you for sharing and best wishes. 💙
