Myself, I struggle with anhedonia right now, which is a symptom of depression.
"Anhedonia is a diverse array of deficits in hedonic function, including reduced motivation or ability to experience pleasure."
Basically, I find it hard to experience both pain and pleasure, I have become numb to everything. I was depressed as a kid suicidal etc, not anymore but I think I never cured depression, only made my symptoms more bearable with meditation.
The symptoms come and go, although my life just kept getting better and better, using every negative emotion as motivation, as fuel to pursue my goals.
But things still are not perfect, I practice gratitude which helps with the symptoms, but right now, I really can't feel anything. Neither pain, nor pleasure.
