Avolition

Avolition is a symptom of some mental health conditions like depression and schizophrenia. It means that a person isn't interested in doing things or doesn't have the will to do things. It can feel like you don’t have enough energy, motivation or enthusiasm to get anything done. You might not care much about things that used to make you happy or excited, or you might not want to be around other people. It can be hard to want to do anything, even things that you think you should do like taking care of yourself, working or studying.
