So yeah, if anyone has techniques for dealing with anhedonia now would be a good time for me to hear about them.

Just recognizing that this is a symptom and there is a name for it is actually a step in the right direction for me.

And I have already been accidentally following the switch medium advice, actually. So giving myself permission to just play video games may help, thank you.

Having a name for a thing can be very powerful. I'm glad you have that now -- and that you have video games, too.

One more stray thought: Sometimes I find that catharsis and relief are more accessible than happiness, which makes hurt/comfort even more valuable than usual. (Fortunately, fandom is a pretty great place for that.)
