Alcohol for anhedonia

Posted by pedr on September 17, 2017, at 13:32:06

Does anyone else find that alcohol *sometimes* is really effective for anhedonia? I'd say 2 in 5 times I have a drink - all else being as constant as possible - it's highly effective. I engage in life again. I keep a mood and food (&drink) diary and I just can't spot why sometimes it's helpful and other times does nothing.
Does anyone else find it sometimes helpful for anhedonia? FTR I'm on:
4x10mg Oxycodone (yes, I know I shouldn't be drinking on this but try having anhedonia and chronic pain and depression for 20 years)
37.5 Effexor (non XR)
150mg Wellbutrin
2.5mg Abilify

I love the smell of Abilify in the morning. The smell, you know that chemical smell. Smells like victory. Some day this war's gonna end...
