Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns about presence of anhedonia and dopamine burnout.

However to help you in better way it is important to get more details about the problem faced by you. You are requested to provide details of all symptoms experienced by you in chronological order. This is important because terms such as dopamine burnout is non specific and can be used in different contexts. Similarly anhedonia is medical term and it is possible that you interpret it differently.

I look forward to assist you.
Thanks and regards.
