Hi I am a 28 year old woman from wales . For the past year I have felt intense physical anhedonia . That is I am unable to feel any pleasure from sex, eating , bathing , touch , or massage . Everything is numbed and unpleasurable or I get a burning ache inside my scalp . The sexual dysfunction in pa...

I have a burning sensation all over my scalp and head and it is incredibly uncomfortable and distressing . I cant live with it anymore . It’s too much for me to handle . I cant live with the pain

I do not want to be alive if I can’t feel pleasure . I am fed up of the discomfort in my head . It is unbearable and painful . I cant cope with it anymore . I think I would rather die of alcohol poisoning than live with the pain

I would rather die of alcohol poisoning than live with the discomfort for the rest of my life . I have given up trying as I am in so much discomfort . The reason I drink is the anhedonia .

Is there any cure? I will try psychedelics . I would pay any amount of money to get my pleasure in life back. I cant be in discomfort for the rest of my life that would be too depressing

I could live without sex , it’s the burning anhedonia that affects other areas of my life that really upsets me .

I also have experience of being sexually harassed and assaulted . Unfortunately that has affected my ability to have sex too , as I have been put off sex by the harassment . Its not just the lack of pleasure that makes sex painful and uncomfortable for me
