Emu567 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Hi, im a 27 year old female student from wales . I have this intense discomfort in my head and it hurts to talk to my grandmother, hurts to bathe and hurts to socialise or do anything that would give me pleasure I am completely lacking in any pleasure that would stop me drinking and try and be more healthy . Everything aches and is sore - no pleasure in sex, no orgasm , no pleasure in bathing , eating and talking to my grandmother I feel so lacking in any pleasure it is physically painful to do the things that used to give me pleasure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emu567 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 I know I shouldn’t complain but it upset me when I realised I couldn’t feel pleasure from talking to my grandmother - that all my pleasure had gone not just from sex . I could live without sex , sex isn’t necessary for me but the other parts of my life like eating, bathing and talking to family and friends is . i feel quite depressed that I’ve lost my pleasure in talking to my grandparents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emu567 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 I feel like I have a grim future ahead of me . Even if I do live to a ripe healthy old age I’ll be so miserable and lacking in pleasure throughout my life . It’s depressing that I can’t feel physical pleasure anymore . I will never be able to orgasm or have physical pleasure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emu567 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 Call me selfish but I don’t want to give pleasure to another person if I can’t feel it myself - it just isn’t worth the effort . Why should I give pleasure to anybody when I can’t feel it myself? The answer is I shouldn’t there’s no point - nothing in it for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emu567 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 I’m too selfish and lazy to get a boyfriend - it takes too much effort and I’m not bothered . The medication I’m on has taken away my sex drive anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emu567 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 It also affects my motivation to do things . I think it’s the antipsychotic causing the Avolition not just the illness There’s something wrong with my reward system - it’s not working properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emu567 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 I cant seem to get a kick out of life at all - even reading doesn’t give me the same pleasure . Just a dull aching discomfort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emu567 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 I’ve also lost my sense of humour . Everything seems boring and empty to me - I think the medication has taken away my sense of humour too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emu567 Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 I used to have a great sense of humour . I can barely laugh now at anything . It’s such a horrid disease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
