Suggest Treatment For Anhedonia Symptoms In An MDD Patient

My boyfriend has MDD, hes been experiencing almost all the symptoms including anhedonia. He s now shut me off and told me to leave him for good without any explanation. He says he never loved me and doesnt love me. Hes not himself anymore and refuses to answer my calls or messages. He s a mess of coldness, rage and hatred. What should I do? Its taking its toll on me aswell. I m also susceptible to depression and this is hitting me all very hard. I cant think about anything else and I cant function normally in day to day life anymore.

Hi,

It seem that you are having such a hard time. Trying to support your boyfriend, although it indicates your supportive values, yet it can be overwhelming as well. First of all try to take care of yourself, then if you can involve more friends or his family to convince him to see the mental health team as soon as possible.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Walid Hassan
