    Sociability

    Personally since this PSSD started I've isolated myself much more. It's difficult being around people when you're emotionally numb, knowing you should be enjoying yourself with friends yet feeling nothing and sometimes being unable to fake even a smile. Until recently I didn't see much issue...

    Nice article in the guardian about depression
