Anhedonia

Anhedonia is the reduced ability to experience pleasure or interest in activities that once brought joy. It is often associated with mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. Individuals with anhedonia may find it difficult to enjoy social interactions, hobbies, or even basic daily activities. This can lead to feelings of emptiness or dissatisfaction with life. It's important to note that anhedonia is a symptom rather than a standalone diagnosis, and it can affect a person's overall quality of life and emotional well-being. Treatment options are available and can help manage its effects.
