A lot of this depends on where you have focused your attention/awareness. How long have you been in this state, do you continue to drive down or focus on these aspects which you associate or blame for the causation of this state? Its very important to realize that the aspects that we are blaming as the reason for our problems, are in fact not actually the causation of these states/configurations and feelings.
The first step is what humans think of as responsibility or honor/duty. You are your Master, take responsibility for your state/configuration. When we do this, we grasp our ability to transform our configurations/state. This also allows you to recognize you are not helpless or powerless in your life. Then we need to re-analyze these things we were blaming before, for what they really are. How do you go about changing these "external" situations, how do you get to where you want to be.
Imagine how you would want to live, give it as much detail as possible. A little secret about our "problems" is that they are actually connected to and are apart of the potentials(s), to get where you want to be. After you have thoroughly thought of the life, and how you want to live. Examine those "problems" and how you are currently living, and how those variables/aspects are impacting your ability to live that life. When we can recognize this, it usually allows us, and invigorates us, to encounter and use these potentials correctly or efficaciously.
Each thought, choice, and emotional/mental response carries a weight or a gravity to it. The more we think, do, feel, or choose variables/aspects the more weight/gravity those variables/aspects have. The more you feed these thoughts and choices that we are labeling as "anhedonic" the more you will be "pulled", "drawn", or "attracted" naturally towards it. So what we need to do is feed the opposite variables. Look in your life and find all that makes you happy, joyful, and Love. Keep your awareness more focused on these aspects, and you will see there weight/gravity grow.
I suggest doing a complete clean up of your surroundings. Get rid of everything that is not useful, doesn't bring you joy, or is just cluttering and clogging your life up. Examine your schedule, your day to day rounds and really stop doing what is not benefiting you anymore. That's from friends, to games, to habits and beyond. We cannot keep swimming the same stream, and expect to tread into new waters. There is only One: We are the stream, we are the waters. These things only change when we change them.
