I really worry that the medication I have taken to control my anxiety has actually given me anhedonia:scared15: I find it very difficult to actually "feel" like I enjoy things or get excited about stuff. This makes me worry about being anhedonic to the point that I cross check every thought of feeling that I have. I can no longer take my meds and now worry that I'm in withdrawal from anti-depressant use: I have tinnitus, crying spells, irresponsive mood, huge anxiety, brain fog, depersonalisation, very bad depression where it is sometimes hard to move/speak. I obsess a lot about getting ECT/ corrective brain surgery /a lobotomy/DBS/rTMS too (yes I know I'm weird).:wacko: :doh:

Withdrawal from antidepressants is supposed to take many months/years. I don't know how I'm going to cope:weep:

Have you stopped taking them at the direction of your doctor? If not I would give them a call and have a medical professional assist you.
