    Hello :) I really like chocolate fudge cake too! I think that could be my favourite kind too although I like all chocolate cake I think 😋

    Thanks! I’m really glad to have found this place and I hope to login more. Sometimes I struggle to be more involved and I become more isolated and struggle to overcome it by logging in and reaching out but I’m trying and I’ve also begun to volunteer again recently and I hope that it can continue :)

    I do the same thing @yellowpineapple84, it's hard to shake but it's been nice feeling not so isolated.

    I find these questions tricky though as it depends on the day, I can love something one day and not stand it the next, lol

    Thanks for that 'word of the day', I just assumed 'Anhedonia' was an exotic first name!

    It seems so obvious now, the opposite of 'hedonia'. 🙄😊🫣

    I wish my first name was exotic, it's about as basic as they come!

    My music taste is very ummmm varied! I think this one speaks to me as it summed up how I felt for much of my life and I thought it was a pretty word!

    That said, I like lots of indy type music, but also I'm yet to find any music I don't like. Currently listening to country!

    What about you? Although I reckon I can guess your name 😋

    You can guess, but maybe my name is ColonelBlink? I have asked for it to be changed a couple of times. 🤣

    Okay, don't laugh but I actually never made the opposite of 'hedonia' connection 😆

    I certainly won't laugh, I hadn't heard the word - 'hedonia', but it immediately sounded llike 'hedonism' or 'hedonistic' to me, so I looked it up.

    @Anhedonia2 Hello again :) I hope you’re doing okay? I was thinking of writing to you again yesterday, to say hello and ask how you are. This is so cool you like Indy music and are listening to country music. I like both too! And I like soul. And I didn’t know Anhedonia was a song so I’d really like to hear it :)

    It always makes me smile when I receive an email and see your username tag me
