> "Avolition is a psychological state characterized by general lack of desire, motivation, and persistence. Commonly seen in patients with schizophrenia, those suffering from avolition will not start or complete any major tasks. This differs from anhedonia, where patients generally find task completion pleasureless."


Hmm.

I guess avolition is one of my primary symptoms. I never realized this. My doctor has described my condition as resembling a "deficit syndrome". This makes sense now.
