Richard Davidson's work helped me see depression as an inability to mentally generate, maintain or perceive positive emotion, from bad to worst. There was a period in time I could perceive them, but not maintain let alone generate them.
And what got me back on track was
7000 steps and strictly down regulating social media feeds and learning a few self regulating tricks and awareness of the brain going funky to then apply the self regulating tricks (therapy).
The 7000 steps alone got me back to a better sleep cycle, the complete pack to a good sleep cycle.

- cupcake-unicorn 5y agoWould you say that you had bad habits with the social media that you had to break kind of like a mild "addiction"? A lot of people with anhedonia have had wires crossed due to things like this. In my case it wasn't PAWS or anything like that for me but I had a lot of psych meds forced on me as a teenager and young adult which could have had an effect. In fact it's been kind of hard to get psych treatment because the assumption often is that there is very strong comorbidity between addictive behaviors and long term mental illness but for me I've never had issues with habits/behavior like that and having to reprogram my brain after.
