You are probably right. I have also been having a lot of trouble with this emotional blunting. It is sort of an inability to cry or “release.” I suppose it is probably best to just be patient and let the emotions “flow” when they “flow,” but a lot of the time there is this very annoying flatness of emotions/apathy that I am unsure is a result of the past use of meds or what. I tend to overthink things a lot which I am trying to do. It also puts a major limit on empathy for others (I don’t feel sad when I want to or really excited when I want to and so on).

Maybe I just need to coax my emotions out somehow? I get really confused often, because for the first 18 years of my life none of this was a problem. I guess it doesn’t really matter if it is the meds or if it was mom or what. It’s difficult to continue on feeling this emotionally anhedonic/flat though. It’s hard to explain, but I really do appreciate the thoughts you have provided
