"Despite Hsiungs caution and control, weird threads pop up all the time, including, not long ago, one about how to love your family more through a pill. After voicing a traditional complaint Why am I not sad when I should be sad?"
Not being able to feel love and emotion towards friends and family is a serious concern and source of frustration for people with anhedonia. I'm a bit annoyed at the journalist finding it "weird". But I suppose this experience is difficult for people without anhedonia to comprehend.
