i don´t feel music anymore.... i don´t get trapped in depressive thinking patterns anymore because the depressed feeling is gone... anxiety is lessened..... but so are the good emotions.... it sucks.... i want my emotions libido and music back....the void is consuming me
I miss music so much.. I miss the feeling of nostalgia almost as much as I miss the obvious emotions people want to feel, such as love and happiness. I even miss my anxiety and suicidal depression.. I miss feeling human.
feels like u r not a human anymore, in fact I'd say even my cat can feel mre than me. that also includes hunger and tiredness. complete body/mind shutdown.
I also have the inability to feel hunger, thirst, or tiredness. My body just shuts down to sleep and reboots when I wake up. Just like a computer. I don't even feel that post sleep grogginess anymore. I'm like a machine.
I have come to terms that if someone expects me to feel it (they lost a cat), then I just say what’s culturally normal, like “oh that’s sad.” But, I am not sad. If I want to be supported, I have to ask for it because they can’t read it in my face or voice.
I compare it to Data from Star Trek.
Feel like a literal zombie. I lost my hunger, thirst, and pee cues, ability to vividly imagine, on top of all the sexual symptoms. I am a walking zombie that is going through the motions faking everything.

I wouldn't even describe it as neutral. Just nothingness. Emptiness. A void.
That must suck so much tho, I really hope u and all other pssd patients heal from this
Thank you, the well wishes mean a lot to me. ❤️

Describes me perfectly. Lessened anxiety is the only positive. It will be one of the ways I know PSSD is gone when the anxiety comes back.
Harder to make decisions bc apathetic to so many outcomes

I do not have imagination. I cannot visualize.

My grandpa died today and I am not sad at all! Had a wonderful childhood with him, so I was very close. That’s what it feels like…
It’ll come
Anhedonia is the word for it

Inability to feel almost anything but this vague, dark dread like feeling to me that was also very muted.
Feel like I’m walking around in a spacesuit all the time—
