About Us
Feeling disconnected is a lonely journey. We're here to offer a trusted, compassionate first step toward clarity.
The Story of AnhedoniaTest.com
AnhedoniaTest.com was born from a place of deep empathy. We saw so many people struggling with a feeling they couldn't name — a sense of emotional numbness or a loss of joy that felt isolating and confusing. While clinical tools existed, they often felt cold and intimidating. We wanted to create something different: a warm, safe, and gentle space to explore these feelings. Our goal was to build not just a test, but a compassionate guide that could provide a moment of clarity and relief, letting you know you are not alone.
Early 2024 - The Spark
The idea was born from a personal desire to create a more compassionate online tool for understanding emotional numbness.
June 2025 - Our Launch
AnhedoniaTest.com went live, offering a secure, science-informed, and empathetic space for self-exploration.
September 2025 - Deeper Insights
We introduced optional AI-Personalized Reports to provide more tailored guidance and actionable steps.
Coming in 2026
We are developing a library of resources focused on rebuilding connection and rediscovering sources of pleasure.

Our test is a tool for self-reflection, not a substitute for a clinical diagnosis. We aim to empower you with clarity for a more informed conversation with a healthcare professional.
Your Privacy is Our Foundation
We built this platform with absolute anonymity at its core. We guarantee your assessment is private and your data is secure. This is our firmest promise.

Grounded in Science
Our assessment is based on established psychological research, such as the SHAPS, to ensure the insights you receive are both reliable and meaningful.

Absolute Anonymity
Your journey is yours alone. Your responses are anonymous, your data is secure, and we will never share or sell your personal information. This is our most important promise.
