5. Poor social adjustment
Most people can relate to that first day at school feeling, where you walked into a room full of strangers and for the first time in your life were left to fend for yourself without the guiding advice of a parent or so much as a hand to hold.
For people living with anhedonia, every single day can be like that first day of school feeling, given that their ability to adapt and adjust to a range of social situations is significantly reduced or eradicated altogether by the symptoms caused by the condition.
Without practice and careful nurturing of this ability, the skill can become lost altogether. Just as a child needs to practice becoming familiar and comfortable in a range of different social environments and atmospheres, the rehabilitation of someone with anhedonia can be one that is extremely difficult to oversee, given the social anxieties that it carries with it.
