“tengo la mente en blanco y me cuesta hacer las cosas, tampoco disfruto de la música… tampoco siento conexión con mis seres queridos… no puedo sentir felicidad ni tampoco tristeza.”
Cause
r/Psychosis Spanish first-person OP u/dakraven (post 1v0zcvj): two psychotic episodes (second ~6mo prior) → blank mind (mente en blanco) + anhedonia (no music enjoyment) + cannot feel happiness or sadness + no connection to loved ones. Unused Spanish post-psychosis (≠ Sep 24 English coach-blog trauma/psychosis 331–332).
Duration
~6 months since second episode (not recovered from either; first was ~1.5y earlier)
Recovery notes
Asks for recovery stories; still blank+no emotions at ~6mo post second episode; psychologist said some stay like this lifelong — no recovery claimed.
