Psychology says the habits that signal a man has quietly lost his joy are almost always ordinary - earlier bedtimes, fewer opinions, smaller appetites, a preference for the predictable - because joy leaving doesn't look like collapse, it looks like caution - Silicon Canals

Some people seem to understand they are dying a few months or weeks before death through an intuitive sense, even without discussing it. This is particularly remarkable in patients with severe illnesses, such as cancer, or following a major myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke, as well as in older individuals. Studies in hospitals have shown that more than 80 percent of cancer patients who died were aware of their terminal condition.

Why Can't I Just Be Happy?

The individual in this state is confused and, even worse, terrified. Whereas joy once felt within reach, anhedonia diminishes one's sense of agency.
