After repeated emotional traumas, many things I used to enjoy, no longer make me happy.
In fact I have a weird depressive reaction to things I used to love.
My trauma seems to get activated, sometimes quickly sometimes slowly in relation to this.
I've been to therapy but it seems to relapse. How do I process my feels and get my joy back?

What types of therapy have you tried so far?
Ultimately, losing the joy for things you once enjoyed indicates some area of trauma that you are yet to process. Sometimes different therapies don't work for different people and you might need to try a different type in order to see if you can better target the things that you need to process.
