Why Don't I Like Anything?
An Anhedonia Guide for Existential Loners
If you’ve ever felt emotionally numb - as if life is happening behind glass - you’re not alone.
Anhedonia is the name for this state of flatness, when joy, motivation, or even a sense of meaning seems out of reach.
This short guide is for existential loners, schizoid-leaning, and emotionally detached people who want to understand what’s happening, and take small steps toward reconnecting with life.
What is Anhedonia?
What’s Inside
In this guide, I explore:
Why anhedonia happens, and how the reward system breaks down.
The schizoid dilemma - the push and pull between connection and isolation.
How certain beliefs about yourself and others quietly block joy.
3 practical steps that can help you begin to feel again - slowly, safely, on your own terms.
Why I Wrote This
Most advice on numbness and motivation feels shallow, or it pathologises difference.
I wanted to write something that takes these struggles seriously - without therapy-speak, clichés, or false positivity.
Mind Mastery is a space for people who feel different: existential loners, outsiders, and schizoid-leaning individuals. This guide is part of that work.
