anhedonia and chronic pain

[Emu567]

hi,

I’m a 27 year old female from wales . I feel this intense itchy achy burning pain in my head on both sides - it means I can’t relax or feel any pleasure .

i can’t function with this pain it is unbearable and intolerable . I find myself up all night because I am too uncomfortable to lie down and sleep and am shouting at the early hours ( waking the neighbours) because the pain has become so bad. Pls has anyone got any advice on how to cope with chronic aching pain and anhedonia ?

it goes without saying I cant feel pleasure from sex but at the moment the pain is so bad I can’t feel pleasure from anything including bathing, eating and socialising . I am living in a waking nightmare of pain , discomfort and lack of pleasure

My first question has to be.....what has your GP said?

Hi Emu.....have a search for Trigeminal Neuralgia ...... its just a thought..but given you particularly mention both sides of your head....

.....as for the anhedonia .... I fear this is just the result of being sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.

But like Bananna5 said....what does the GP say.

Keep Smiling...even if it is through gritted teeth !
