My therapist told me yesterday that the word for my lack of pleasure or satisfaction is anadonia. It's been an issue for a long time for me, but a few weeks ago, the psychiatrist added Remeron to the list of meds I take, and I think it's helping my mood and anadonia. Wellbutrin has been my main antidepressant for 13 years, after trying a bunch of others, and I take Klonopen for anxiety, along with pain meds - morphine, meloxicam and aspirin, and allergy medicine, and so on. I'm hopeful that Remeron will help me.

Could it be that you might need to try a new antidepressant? I know that they sometimes lose their effectiveness after awhile. I have to agree with Teresa that perhaps you'd be better served by a fresh view of a new psychiatrist. If you decide to do that, I hope you find a good one.

@jimhd Jim,

Thanks for the explanation of anhedonia (or lack of pleasure or satisfaction).

Teresa
