Hi everyone,
After I had SAH in 2019 I experienced changes to my personality. I’m unable to experience any emotions greater than ‘like’ I can connect to emotions pre 2019 but not since. Even my tastes have changed, I used to like liquorice and dark chocolate but I can’t even put them in my mouth now. My patience/tolerance of BS has lessened considerably and I can appear quite cold sometimes. This is the polar opposite to what I was post SAH. I’m curious to know if anyone else has experienced anything similar. It’s a worry as I would like a new relationship at some point, but if I can’t get past ‘like’, I’m not sure any future partner would be happy to settle with that. I’m 5 years on and worked on myself hard, emotional counselling, CBT, exercise, body scanning. Unfortunately no real changes. I’m still caring and empathetic but past that the emotional connection is just not there. I wish it was, but it just isn’t. Thanks for reading, anyone who relates to this I’d be happy to hear from you. Dan
