Anhedonia is a common symptom of depression and it is characterized by a loss of interest and pleasure in almost all of your usual activities. Anhedonia can sap the color and joy out of life, leaving a person feeling unfulfilled and disengaged from life. It does this by making it difficult for a person to experience joy and pleasure in activities that they used to enjoy doing. Additionally, anhedonia can make it so that you have little motivation or interest in doing previously enjoyed activities. As a result, you experience less pleasure our of life and have less drive to do things that you once enjoyed doing. So, you stop doing these activities (because you no longer experience joy or pleasure in doing them) and this, in turn, makes depression worse. So, the symptom of anhedonia in depression is one of the factors that maintains the depression and makes it worse, creating a negative spiral.
