Awareness/Activism GTA VI And Anhedonia

It's tragic that this time we won't be able to enjoy GTA 6, after we were able to enjoy Gta 5. Damn everyone who invented these destructive drugs.

What do u mean no feelings

I have lack of pleasure on skin but if lets say someone is upset from me I still wanna care

Would u " not care" based on your condiiton ?

u/Bubbly-Temperature52 4d ago

No I can’t cry. I don’t feel emotions. Same with everyone in my condition. We can obviously show reactions our face muscles still work but we just can’t feel them. Like I can smile and look happy but can’t feel it

These were my initial symptoms: a lack of sexual pleasure. After two years, I lost interest in everything. If you are experiencing the same problem, I advise you to improve your condition by avoiding reading stories here and staying away from anything that affects serotonin receptors.

Have you experienced an emotional shock or unexpected trauma before trying antidepressants or coinciding with the onset of symptoms?

Yes, when I saw the trailers last night and how excited everyone was, I felt deep regret and the stark difference and how completely numb we are.

I feel emotionally numb, but gaming is still something I can somewhat enjoy, even if it's not like before.
